Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Artificial silk (Tussar silk) development in Rajasthan is mainly promoted in the southern and southeastern regions where climatic and forest conditions are more suitable for sericulture activities.
The districts Kota, Udaipur, and Banswara are being developed for Tussar silk production because these regions have:
Better vegetation and forest cover
Suitable climatic conditions
Tribal population involved in sericulture activities
The Rajasthan government promotes silk production in these areas to generate employment and support rural livelihoods.
Therefore, the correct answer is Kota, Udaipur and Banswara.
