Solution
- Industrialisation and urbanisation go hand-in-hand because the growth of industries attracts people to urban areas in search of employment and better living conditions.
- As industries develop, they create jobs, stimulate trade, and lead to the expansion of infrastructure such as housing, roads, schools, and hospitals. This transforms small settlements into towns and cities.
- At the same time, urban areas support industrialisation by providing a ready market, skilled labour, better transport, and other essential services.
- Cities like Jamshedpur, Mumbai, and Bengaluru are examples where industrial growth has directly contributed to urban development.
Thus, industrialisation and urbanisation are closely linked, each driving the growth of the other.
