The growth of tertiary sector in any country indicates its economic growth. Tertiary sector is becoming important in India due to the following reasons –
(i) Direct responsibility of the Govt. The government takes direct responsibility for the development of tertiary sector. It provides basic services to the people like educational institutions, hospitals, banks, post-offices, police stations, post and telegraph, telephone etc. This ensures its stability and growth.
(ii) Development of means of transport and communication. The development of agriculture and industry leads to the development of services such as transport, communication, trade etc. and all these come under the tertiary sector.
(iii) Increasing demand of services. In India, the per capita income is rising at a rapid pace. As the income level rises, people demand more services like banks, tourism, shopping centres, schools etc.
(iv) New services. Modernisation and globalisation has resulted in some new services based on information and communication technology, and the production of these services has been rising rapidly.
Thus, the tertiary sector is becoming very important in India.

examples for ques.2----

For example in rural areas, this type of unemployment is generally found in agricultural sector like - in a family of 9 people all are engaged in the same agricultural plot. But if 4 people are with drawn from it there will be no reduction in output. So, these 4 people are actually disguisedly employed.
In urban areas, this type of unemployment can be seen mostly in service sectors such as in a family all members are engaged in one petty shop or a small business which can be managed by less number of persons.
