Census data on occupational distribution in Manipur reveals the reliance on:

Agriculture
Manufacturing
Service Sector
Construction

The correct answer is: a) Agriculture.

Manipur is a state in northeastern India. It is one of the poorest states in India, with a per capita income of just over $1,000 per year. The majority of the population of Manipur lives in rural areas and relies on agriculture for their livelihood. The state’s economy is heavily dependent on agriculture, which accounts for over 60% of the state’s GDP. The main crops grown in Manipur are rice, maize, sugarcane, and oilseeds. The state also has a small manufacturing sector, which is mainly concentrated in the production of textiles, food processing, and handicrafts. The service sector is the fastest growing sector of the Manipuri economy, but it still accounts for only a small share of the state’s GDP.

The other options are incorrect because:

  • Option b) Manufacturing is incorrect because the manufacturing sector is a small part of the Manipuri economy.
  • Option c) Service Sector is incorrect because the service sector is a small part of the Manipuri economy.
  • Option d) Construction is incorrect because the construction sector is a small part of the Manipuri economy.
