Solution

The correct option is B Primary sector.
The share in providing employment was not in tune with the share in GDP. The agriculture provided employment to 75% workers and this decreased to 60% in 2000, which is not as big a drop as agriculture’s drop in GDP contribution. On the other hand, the growth in employment provided by other two sectors was substantially low.
