Question

Read the following two statements, identify each of them as true/false and select the appropriate option.

S1: Many times migrants occupy a land and settle without the required permission. This is a repetitive process and people settle in a similar way at different places;

S2: The master plan fails to recognise the existence of poor people. Some have to evacuate unauthorised land but they settle somewhere else. Select which of the following options are relevant:

• A. S1: True; S2: True; S2 is related to S1
• B. S1: True; S2: True; S1 and S2 are independent
• C. S1: True; S2: False
• D. S1: False; S2: True

Answer 1

The correct option is A S1: True; S2: True; S2 is related to S1

Migrants looking for work occupy the land and settle without necessary permissions. Unauthorised occupants may be asked to vacate the land and they have nowhere to go. The compensation given may not be sufficient to relocate to their native places or find a planned place in the city to stay. They settle on another unauthorised land and this cycle continues. The master plan does not consider poor people or migrant workers while drafting the plan.
