Q2Assertion (A): The Khairthal-Tijara region in Alwar district is being developed as a major industrial hub by the Rajasthan government.

D A is false but R is true

Explanation

Q3Where was the first cement factory established in Rajasthan?

A Lakheri

B Dabok

C Beawar

D Gotan

Explanation

Lakheri is treated as the site of Rajasthan’s first cement factory in the published key. The location is historically associated with early cement industry development in the state, helped by the availability of raw material and industrial investment. Dabok is known more for its location near Udaipur and is not the first cement-factory site. Beawar has industrial importance but is not the answer here. Gotan is linked with cement and gypsum-based industrial activity, yet it was not the first site asked in the question.
