Question

In India, production in all the three sectors have increased. However, it has increased the most in the tertiary sector. Which of the following is incorrect as a reason for the increased production in the tertiary sector?

• A. Government spends a lot of money towards creating jobs in the tertiary sector
• B. Increase in demand for tertiary sector activities
• C. The tertiary sector is the only organised sector.
• D. Increase in level of income and development of tertiary sector activities

Answer 1

Answer: (A), (C)

The tertiary sector is the only organised sector.

There are several reasons for increased production in the tertiary sector, including increase in demand for tertiary sector activities such as education, health, communication, and transportation. Development of the agriculture sector as well as the information and technology sector has also increased tertiary sector activities. In fact, the increase in level of income has improved the production of tertiary sectors activities. We, however, cannot say that the tertiary sector is the only organised sector. Secondary sector workers, such as registered industrial workers, also fall under the organised sector. Moreover, the government spending money has no relevance with creating jobs in the tertiary sector.
