Question 1 - Assertion Reasoning - Chapter 2 Class 10 Economics - Sectors of the Indian Economy - Economics

Assertion (A): Indian government has launched many schemes to generate more employment opportunities.

Reason (R): The target to achieve 100% employment in India is still far ahead.

Answer:

Indian government has launched various schemes to generate more employment in the country such as (MGNREGA). Under this act, the government guarantees 100 days of employment to all those who are in need of work . The rising unemployment in India is a major issue. So, the target to achieve 100%  employment in India is still far ahead.

Therefore,

• Assertion (A): Indian government has launched various schemes to generate more employment in the country. This is true.
• Reasoning (R): The target to achieve 100%  employment in India is still far ahead. This is also true.
• But,  introducing various schemes by the government for employment has no relation with the   target to achieve 100%  employment in the country. So, the reasoning is not a correct explanation of the assertion

Thus,

• Assertion is true .
• Reasoning is true
• But the reasoning is not a correct explanation of Assertion. 

So, the correct answer is (B)
