2011 Census has divided the working population of India into four major categories. Which one of the following is NOT one of them ?

According to the Census of India 2011, the working population is classified into four broad categories based on the nature of their economic activity. These categories are: (1) Cultivators, (2) Agricultural Labourers, (3) Household Industry Workers, and (4) Other Workers [5]. Cultivators are individuals engaged in the cultivation of land they own or hold from the government/private institutions [1]. Agricultural labourers work on another person's land for wages in money or kind [5]. Household industry workers are engaged in production, processing, or servicing within a household-run enterprise [5]. The 'Other Workers' category includes those in non-household industries, trade, commerce, construction, and services [5]. Domestic workers are not a separate major category; they are typically subsumed under the 'Other Workers' classification [5]. Therefore, domestic workers is the incorrect category among the options provided.
