Solution

The correct option is B Growth of slums in cities
Urbanisation is fueled by migration, and this has led to the growth of slums in cities. However, many of the migrants are from economically weaker sections of the society and have low paid jobs. Thus, these migrants cannot afford costly rent or housing in the city, and they settle down in the slums.
