Solution

The correct option is D Yes. Rishi is seasonally unemployed and Saloni is frictionally unemployed.
In a season-specific job like agriculture, people remain unemployed during certain seasons. Such unemployment is referred to as seasonal unemployment. Similarly, in some cases, people remain unemployed for a short period until they find a satisfactory job. It is termed as frictional unemployment.
