Correct Answer: Both assertion and reason are true, but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.


Solution : The correct answer is (b) Both assertion and reason are true, but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

The assertion states that people in urban areas have more exposure to social and economic opportunities, which is generally true. Urban areas tend to offer a wider range of social and economic opportunities compared to rural areas. Cities are often hubs of economic activity, with a diverse range of industries, businesses, and employment opportunities. They also provide access to better infrastructure, education, healthcare, and cultural amenities.

The reason provided states that enterprises in urban areas need workers on a regular basis due to the diversity in the nature of work. While it is true that urban areas often have a greater demand for labor due to the concentration of economic activities, this reason does not fully explain why people in urban areas have more exposure to social and economic opportunities. The diversity of work alone does not necessarily guarantee greater exposure to opportunities. Factors such as population density, infrastructure, education, and networking opportunities also play significant roles in providing exposure to social and economic opportunities in urban areas.

Therefore, both the assertion and reason are true, but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
