Answer 1

Indian economy is an agro-based economy. Wherein about 43 per cent of the labour force is employed.

Explanation:

India is an agro-based economy. Agriculture is the backbone of the Indian economy as it provides livelihood to a large proportion of the population. Although the share of agriculture in total national income has decreased over time due to growth in industry and services, a significant portion of the labour force still depends on agriculture for their employment. As of recent data, about 43 per cent of the total labour force in India is employed in agriculture and allied activities.
