|
EXAMPLE |
WHAT
DOES THIS SHOW? |
Imagine what would happen
if farmers refuse to sell sugarcane to a particualr sugar mill. The mill will
have to shut down. |
This is an example of the
secondary on industrial sector being dependent on the primary. |
Imagine what would happen
to cotton cultivation if companies decide not to buy cotton from the Indian
market and import all cotton they need from other countries. Indian cotton
cultivation will become less profitable and the farmers may even go bankrupt,
if they cannot quickly switch to other crops. Cotton prices will fall. |
This is an example of
primary sector being dependent upon secondary sector. |
Farmers buy many goods
such as tractors, pumpsets, electricity, pesticides and fertilisers. Imagine
what would happen if the price of fertilisers or pump sets go up. Cost of
cultivation of the farmers will rise and their profits will be reduced. |
This is an example of
primary sector being dependent upon secondary sector. |
People working in
industrial and service sector need food. Imagine what would happen if there
is, a strike by transporters and lorries refuse to take vegetables, milk,
etc. from rural areas. Food will become scarce in urban areas whereas farmers
will be unable to sell their products. |
This is an example of
primary and secondary secton being dependent upon tertiary sector. |

2 Let's Work These Out Answers Question 1.
What does the hiștory of developed countries indicate about the shifts that
have taken place between sectors?
Answer:
The history of developed nations indicates that at initial stages of
development, primary sector is the most important sector of economic activity.
As the development takes place in the country the contribution of secondary
sector increases and when a nation becomes developed, there is maximum
contribution of service sector in the national income of that nation. In
developed nations most of the working people are also employed in service
sector and the least employment is there in primary sector.

2 Intext Questions Question 3.
Compare and contrast the changes in India with the pattern that was observed
for developed countries. What kind of changes between sectors were desired but
did not happen in India?
Answer:
Primary Sector- In developed nations in the initial stage of development,
primary sector was the important sector in terms of production and employment.
In the initial stages of development the same was there in India.
Secondary Sector- In
developed nations, with the development, Secondary sector becomes important in
the point of view of output and employment. But in India this sector is still
lagging behind in employment and output.
Tertiary Sector- At the
higher stages of development, tertiary sector contributes the maximum share in
gross domestic product of developed nations. Whereas in India the tertiary
sector contributes the largest share in GDP but still primary sector is the largest
employment providing sector of India.
Class 10 Economics Chapter
2 Table 2.2 Solutions Question 4.
Why should we be worried about underemployment?
Answer:
Many types of unemployment is found in India. Underemployment is basic feature
of agriculture in India. In under-employment people seem to be working but
their marginal productivity is zero. If they are removed from work there is no
decrease in total production. If these people are provided employment in other
sectors, they become more productive and this will increase national income and
per-capita income and the problem of unemployment and poverty can be solved. So
it is important to think over the problem of under-employment.

Why do you think MGNREGA 2005 is referred to as “Right to work"?
Answer:
Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act 2005 (MGNREGA 2005) is a
law which is implemented by government of India. All districts in rural areas
were brought under this act with effect from 1 April, 2008. It is referred as
“Right to work" because it guarantees 100 days of employment in a year by
the government to all those who are able to work and in case of failure
unemployment allowance will be given.

Economics Class 10 Chapter
2 Table 2.1 Question 3
How would you distinguish between organised and unorganised sectors? Explain in
your own words.
Answer:
Unorganised Sector- It consists of small and scattered units which are largely
outside the control of the government. It is characterised by low-paid and
insecure jobs. Rules and regulations are not followed, workers do not get benefits
like provident fund, gratuity, medical benefits, paid leave etc.
Organised Sector- It
consists of those units in which people have assured work and terms of
employment are regular. Rules and regulations given in various laws are
followed as they are registered by the government. Workers have secure jobs:
Working hours are fixed and overtime for extra work is provided. Workers get
benefits like provident fund, gratuity, paid leaves, medical benefits etc.

Question 6.
Do you think the classification of economic activities into primary, secondary
and tertiary is useful? Explain how.
Answer:
Yes, classification of economic activities into primary, secondary and tertiary
sector is useful as it helps in estimating the relative importance in the
growth in GDP of the economy. Classifying in such a way helps in calculating
how much goods and services are produced and how many people work in each
sector. In India tertiary sector is growing at a very fast speed which implies
that the country is moving towards developed country. This type of
classification helps in comparing the level of growth in different countries.
Question 7.
For each of the sectors that we came across in this chapter why should one
focus on employment and GDP? Could there be other issues which should be
examined? Discuss.
Answer:
Economic activities are classified in three sectors-
(a) Primary sector
(b) Secondary sector
(c) Tertiary sector.
All the economic activities are included in these three sectors which are
estimated on the basis of employment and gross domestic product. This
classification is very useful because-
(i) It provides us information about development and business activities
(ii) This distribution provides us information about distribution of economic
activities, contribution of various sectors in gross domestic product,
employment status of various sectors, distribution of employment in various
sectors and contribution of various sectors in GDP.
Question 8.
Make a long list of all kinds of work that you find adults around you doing for
a living. In what way can you classify them? Explain your choice.
Answer:
Following are the major kinds of work around us-
- Agriculture activities
- Dairy farming
- Shopkeeper
- Rearing of animals
- Business
- Cottage Industry
- Potter
- Labour
- Transport
- Teacher
- Doctor
- Barber
- Vendor
- Constable
- Bank employee
- Postman
- Insurance employee
- Vegetable seller
- Tailor etc.
We can classify all the
above activities in three sectors. These are as follows-
- Primary sector
- Secondary sector
- Tertiary sector.
Question 9.
How is the tertiary sector different from other sectors? Illustrate with a few
examples.
Answer:
Tertiary sector includes trade, transport, communication and other services
provided to the people employed in primary and secondary sector. Service sector
is different from other sectors because it does not produce goods but they
support the production process. For example services provided by a teacher,
doctor, advocate etc. contribute in the development of primary and secondary
sector. For example without communication, transport, banking etc. development
of primary and secondary sectors are not possible.
Question 10.
What do you understand by disguised unemployment? Explain with an example each
from the urban and rural areas.
Answer:
Disguised Unemployment- A situation in which more persons are employed on a job
than are optimally required. If a part of the labour force is withdrawn, the
total production remains unchanged. This withdrawn labour will be known as
disguised unemployed labour.
Example in Rural Areas-
Usually it has been observed that on the field the whole family of farmer is
working whereas the some no. is not required. This is known as disguised
unemployment.
Example in urban Areas- It implies that more people are involved in family
business and shops than required.
Question 11.
Distinguish between open unemployment and disguised unemployment.
Answer:
The difference between open unemployment and disguised unemployment is as
follows-
(1) Open unemployment is a situation when a capable person is willing to work
at existing wage rate but does not get work or he is completely without work,
whereas in disguised unemployment people do not get work according to their
qualifications and they are into the work but their marginal productivity is
zero.
(2) Open unemployment is
permanent in nature whereas disguised unemployment is temporary
Question 12.
“Tertiary sector is not playing any significant role in the development of
Indian economy”. Do you agree with this statement? Give reasons in support of
your answer.
Answer:
I do not agree with the statement that tertiary sector is not playing an
important role in Indian economy.
The contribution of
tertiary sector is continuously increasing in gross domestic product of India.
In 1973-74 the share of tertiary sector was 48% in GDP and in 2013-14 its share
has been increased to 68%. As well as employment opportunities in service
sector are also increasing. Tertiary sector plays an important role in
development of primary and secondary sector because it provides support to both
of the sectors.
Question 13.
Service sector in India employs two different kinds of people. Who are these?
Answer:
Service sector employs two different kinds of people-
(1) First category includes those people whose services directly affect the
production of goods and services. These services are provided to both primary
and secondary sector. For example transport, storage, communication, banking,
people employed in business.
(2) Those people whose
services directly do not affect the production of goods and services. For
example-Doctor, Advocate, Washerman, Cobbler, Barber, Internet Cafe, ATM booth,
Software company etc.
Question 14.
Workers are exploited in the unorganised sector. Do you agree with this view?
Give reasons in support of your answer.
Answer:
Yes, I agree with this view.
Labourers in the unorganised sector include agricultural labourers, small and
marginal farmers, artisans, casual workers, street vendors etc. They suffer problems
like low wages, low social status, weak bargaining power and low duration of
employment. There is no provision for overtime, paid leave, medical leave etc.
There is no security of work. Workers can be expelled from work any time
without any notice.
Question 15.
How are the activities in an economy classified on the basis of employment
conditions?
Answer:
On the basis of employment conditions economic activities are classified into
two sectors-
- Organised sector
- Unorganised sector.
1. Organised Sector- It
includes those enterprises or workplaces where the employment is regular and
government rules and regulations are implemented.
2. Unorganised sector- It includes small and scatured business where there is
no control of government.
Question 16.
Compare the employment conditions prevailing in the organised and unorganised
sector.
Answer:
The employment opportunities available in organised and unorganised sector can
be compared on the following indicators-
(1) Employment Security- Regular employment is basic feature of organised
sector, whereas, there is insecurity of employment in unorganised sector.
(2) Government Control- Organised sector is under the control of government,
whereas there is no control of government in unorganised sector.
(3) Government Rules and Regulations- Government rules and regulations are
followed in organised sector, whereas there is no implementation of government
rules and regulations in unorganised sector.
(4) Exploitation of Labour- Usually labourers are exploited in an unorganised
sector, whereas there is no exploitation of labour in an organised sector.
(5) Working Hours- Working hours are fixed in organised sector, whereas working
hours are not fixed in an unorganised sector.
(6) Labour Unions- Labour unions are not found in unorganised sector, whereas
labour unions play an important role in organised sector.
Question 17.
Explain the objective of implementing the MGNREGA 2005.
Answer:
Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act-2005 (MGNREGA-2005) is a
law which is implemented by government of India. It is referred to as “right to
work" because it guarantees 100 days employment in a year by the
government to all those who are able to work and in case of failure
unemployment allowances will be given. The main aim of MGNREGA is to provide
employment guarantee. It is encouraging those work which are helpful to
increase land productivity in near future.

Question 20.
Give a few examples of public sector activities and explain why the government
has taken them up?
Answer:
Public sector enterprises are those which are owned by state or central
government.
For example- Railways, Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited, Sawai Man Singh Hospital
etc. Government run these enterprises for Public welfare. Government tries to
raise the living standard of public by providing these facilities. It provides
the service either at a lower rate or free of cost. Government invest in
construction of roads, bridges, railways, generating electricity, constructing
dams and thus accelerating the economic development of a nation.
Question 21.
Explain how public sector contributes to the economic development of a nation?
Or
In your view, why is public sector a must? Write any three points.
Answer:
Public sector plays an important role in the development of a nation. It can be
better understood by following points-1. Expansion of Basic Infrastructure
Facilities- Public sector undertakes activities like health and educational
facilities, extension of road & rail transport, expansion of communication
facilities etc.
2. Social Welfare- To raise the living standard of the people govt. provides
many public facilities, for ex-Public parks etc.
3. Removal of Poverty and Unemployment- Government run many poverty removal
programmes which are not possible in private sector.
4. To Improve the Living Standard of People- Many activities like skill
development programmes etc. are run by public sector which raise the living
standard of the people.
5. Capital Formation- Public sector is helpful in capital formation by
investing large capital in Public sector
6. Industrial Development- Public sector plays an important role in the
development of Industrial structure of a country.
Question 22.
The workers in the unorganised sector need protection on the following
issues-Wages, safety and health. Explain with examples.
Answer:
Workers in the unorganised sector need protection on the following issues-
- Wages- Here wages are low and
even not regular and there is absence of provision for overtime, paid
leave etc.
- Safety- For example, workers
working in mines of crackers factory always face the element of risk.
- Health- For example long
working hours and unhygienic working environment affect the health of the
workers adversely.
So, this sector is required
to be controlled by government and they should follow the rules &
regulations of government related to employment strictly.
Question 23.
A study in Ahmedabad found that out of ₹ 15,00,000 workers in the city, ₹
11,00,000 worked in the unorganised sector. The total income of the city in
this year (1997-1998) was ₹ 60,000 million. Out of this ₹ 32,000 million was
generated in the organised sector. Present this data as a table. What kind of
ways should be thought of for generating more employment in the city?
Answer:
Table-Distribution of labour in Ahmedabad city (Year 1997-98).
Item |
Organised
Sector |
Unorganised
Sector |
Total |
Labour Income(in millions) |
4,00,000 32,000 |
11,00,000 28,000 |
15,00,000 60,000 |
It is clear from the above
table that maximum number of labourers are working in unorganised sector but
income earned by them is less than income of labour of organised sector.
So, efforts should be done
to increase employment opportunities in organised sector. Public sector should
be established and unorganised sector should follow the minimum wages rules and
efforts should be done to increase the income of unorganised sector. Tertiary
sector should be developed in Ahmedabad. Bank, insurance, post office, transport,
communication, medical and educational facilities should be developed there. So
the more employment opportunities are developed in service sector.
Question 24.
The following table gives the GDP in Rupees (Crores) by the three sectors :
