Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is not the correct explanation for (A)

(A) is true , but (R) is false

(A) is false but (R) is true

Correct Answer:

Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation for (A)

Explanation:
  • Assertion (A): Many imported products are available in the market these days.

    • Explanation: This statement is true. With globalization and the removal of trade barriers, markets have become more open to international products. As a result, consumers have access to a wide range of imported goods.
  • Reason (R): Removal of restrictions to imports and opening of markets facilitates the free flow of goods.

    • Explanation: This statement is true and provides a correct explanation for Assertion (A). When restrictions on imports are lifted and markets are opened up, it allows the free flow of goods across borders. This phenomenon is a key aspect of globalization, leading to increased availability of imported products.

Therefore, the correct answer is: Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation for (A).
