Solution
The rural and urban communities differ on the basis of occupation. The main occupation of the people of the villages is agriculture. The farmers or kisans either work on their own lands to grow crops or work as agricultural labourers on the lands of other people land where they are paid wages. There are also fishermen and small shopkeepers who earn their living by selling fishes and necessary items, respectively. In the urban areas, people are engaged in non-agricultural activities such as manufacturing, trade and commerce. The opportunities to earn money in a city are more than in the villages.
