Q18: Using examples from your area compare and contrast the activities and functions of private and public sectors. Answer:
Let us take example of any small city of India and let us try to understand the transport sector. The bus services for long distance travel are provided by the State Transport Corporation; which is a public sector organization. Additionally, many private operators also ply their buses. Workers who are working for the State Transport Corporation get all the employment related benefits, which are usually not available to those working for the private operators.
