The tertiary sector is different from other sector as mentioned below:
(i) The activities of the tertiary sector helps in development of primary and secondary sectors.
(ii) The activities, by themselves, do not produce a good, but they are an aid or a support for the production process. For example transports system helps in taking goods from the factory to markets from the purpose of selling or storing godowns.
(iii) It provides telephones and other products for communication to the traders. Banks provide money to help production and trade.
(iv) Thus transport, storage, communication etc. are not tertiary activities. On the other hand primary sectors forms the base for all products that we subsequently make. Minerals and ores are natural products which are converted into other form by manufacturing. Sugar is made from sugarcane.
Income can be measured but there are things which cannot be measured but are important in life. For example a person gets job offer in a far off places.

Income can be measured but there are things which cannot be measured but are important in life. For example a person gets job offer in a far off places. The salary is very good but before accepting that offer he will consider the following points:
(i) Facilities for the family.
(ii) Working atmosphere i.e., night duty or morning duty hours.
(iii) Regular or temporary employment.
(iv) Accommodation for living.
Person will have to consider all the above points before joining. He may join only if the conditions are favourable for him. Thus the development goals that people have are not only about better income but also about other important aspects.
(a) Development involves thinking about our aspirations or desires and about the ways in which we can work towards achieving these desires/goals. (b) Different goals: Different persons in the society have different aspirations and goals. (i) One may desire to be a doctor while another person an engiRead more
(a) Development involves thinking about our aspirations or desires and about the ways in which we can work towards achieving these desires/goals.
(b) Different goals: Different persons in the society have different aspirations and goals.
(i) One may desire to be a doctor while another person an engineer. There is no conflict between the two.
(ii) They can fulfil their aspirations or desires.
(c) Conflicting goals: Sometimes two groups of persons may desire conflicting things. For example, industrialists may want construction of more dams for generation of electricity. But this may submerge the land and disrupt the lives of people who are displaced-such as tribals. They might resent this and may prefer small check dams or tanks to irrigate their land. Thus what may be development for one may not be development for the other. It may even be destructive for the others.
(d) Common goals: Besides more income people may seek other goals such as equal treatment, freedom, security and respect of others. All these may be common goals for all.
All these are important goals. In fact in some cases these may be more important than more income or more consumption because material goods are not all one needs to live. The quality of life depends on non-material things such as friendship.
From above, it is clear that people have common goals, conflicting goals and different goals in life for their development.
(e) Mixed goals: Similarly for development, people look at a mix of goals. For example, if there is respect for women, there would be more sharing of housework and a greater acceptance of women working outside. A safe and secure environmental may allow more women to take up a variety of jobs or run a business. People have developmental goals about better income as well as other important things of life.

(3) Generally the children of labourers are deprived of education. So school must be opened in villages and the children of labourers should be given free education. Books must be provided to them free of cost.
(4) There should be no social discrimination and they should be given opportunities to participate in the working of village panchayats etc.

Income by itself is not a completely adequate indicator of material goods and services that citizens are able to use. Money cannot buy a pollution-free environment. Money cannot protect you from infectious diseases unless the whole community takes preventive steps.
