AI-generated practice question — model-generated for extra practice, not a previous-year CBSE board question.
(A) Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
The unorganised sector is characterised by small, scattered units outside government control where rules are not followed, which directly leads to worker exploitation and below-fair wages.
The passage explicitly states: "The unorganised sector is characterised by small and scattered units which are largely outside the control of the government. There are rules and regulations but these are not followed… They are often exploited and not paid a fair wage." R directly explains why A occurs — lack of government oversight enables exploitation. So R is the correct explanation of A, making option (A) correct.
