Q.	In India, disguised unemployment is generally observed in -
A.	the Agricultural sector
B.	the Factory sector
C.	the Service sector
D.	All these sectors
Answer» A. the Agricultural sector
Explanation: As the word suggests, disguised unemployment refers to a situation when a person is apparently employed, but in effect unemployed. It is a phenomenon of concealed unemployment, not visible to the open eyes. Here it is not possible to identify as to who are unemployed, as all "appear to be working." Disguised unemployment is especially seen in the field of agriculture. Most of the people are observed to be engaged in agriculture; however, in reality a sufficient number of them are unemployed. Their contribution regarding production is negligible.
