The correct answer is Option 2: Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). Assertion (A)- Use of non - conventional source of energy is promoted in India and around the globe. This is correct. There is a global push to promote non-conventional or renewable sources of energy, such as solar, wind, and geothermal, due to their potential for sustainable and environmentally friendly energy production. Reason (R)- India is hugely dependent on thermal and hydro power plants to meet its power needs..This is True. However, this dependence does not explain why non-conventional sources are promoted globally; it is only a separate fact about India’s energy pattern. |
