• A. 31 - 40
• B. 21 - 30
• C. 11 - 20
• D. 0 - 10

Answer 1

The correct option is D 0 - 10

India is a vast country that boasts of a large number of cities. But mega cities, which have a population more than 10 million, are only 5-6 in number. The percentage of urban areas in the country is ever increasing because of the fast rate of urbanisation. Employment opportunity plays a big role in the migration process wherein individuals move away from rural areas and towards urban settlements in search of jobs and a better quality of living.
