A) Only 1
B) Only 2
C) Both 1 and 2
D) neither 1 nor 2
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
[c] The NIMZs are central to the government's national manufacturing policy, which aims to increase the share of manufacturing to 25 percent of the country's GDP while also creating 100 million jobs over the next decade. Manufacturing currently accounts for 16 percent of India's economic output. Ranging from 50 square kilometers to 900 square kilometers, each NIMZ will be much larger than a traditional Special Economic Zone (SEZ), but will retain the latter's characteristics with flexible rules and regulations.
