Solution

About two-third of the country’s total population reside in villages.

Explanation:

According to the latest population census (2011), 67 per cent of India’s population live in rural areas. This reflects the predominance of rural habitation in the country, with most rural people engaged in primary activities like agriculture. The urban population forms just 33 per cent, although it has been increasing over the years due to better facilities and employment opportunities in towns and cities.
