The correct answer is Option (3) → Personal services
Personal services help people with their daily work, like housekeepers, cooks and gardeners. These workers are generally unorganised.
NCERT (2026-27): “Personal services are made available to the people to facilitate their work in daily life. The workers migrate from rural areas in search of employment and are unskilled. They are employed in domestic services as housekeepers, cooks, and gardeners. This segment of workers is generally unorganised. One such example in India is Mumbai’s dabbawala (Tiffin) service provided to about 1,75,000 customers all over the city.” |
