The chapter “Sectors of the Indian Economy” in UP Board Class 10 Social Science explains how economic activities are divided into three main sectors: Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary. The Primary Sector includes activities like farming, fishing, and mining; the Secondary Sector involves manufacturing and industrial work; and the Tertiary Sector provides services like banking, transport, education, and healthcare.
The chapter also explains the difference between organized and unorganized sectors. Organized sectors provide regular wages and job security, while unorganized sectors have irregular income and fewer job benefits.
Additionally, the chapter discusses the role of these sectors in generating employment and developing the economy. It shows that the Tertiary Sector is becoming the fastest-growing sector in India due to increasing demand for services.
