Solution
Shift to left
Explanation:
The demand schedule shows that the price remains the same at ₹20, but the quantity demanded decreases from 100 units to 70 units. This indicates that something other than price has caused a decrease in demand. As a result, the entire demand curve shifts to the left, reflecting a decrease in demand at every price level.
