    Correct option is A

    Explanation:

    Information Booster:

    • Alwar and Ajmer are key districts in Rajasthan's matchstick industry.
    • These units are generally part of small and cottage industries.
    • The industry provides employment to rural and semi-urban workers.
    • These districts have cluster-based units for better production and distribution.
