Answer 1

Both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion.

Explanation:

The assertion is true because the Indian fishing industry is underdeveloped due to reasons like use of traditional methods, lack of modern equipment, and poor infrastructure. The reason is also true as the western coast has many indentations that support fishing activities. However, this reason does not explain the underdevelopment of the fishing industry.
