Question

Match the following with respect to urban settlements.

• A. Rural-Urban Migration
• B. Engulfs Rural Areas
• C. Service Industry
• D. Income gap

Answer 1

Migration, especially rural to urban migration, has contributed to about one-fifth of the population growth in urban areas of India. Service Industry contributes to the economy of an urban settlement. Expansion of urban settlements results in inclusion of rural areas. Widening of income gap is linked with caste-based discrimination.
