Solution
This statement is True.
Reason:
Urbanization means the migration of rural people to urban areas, which results in family discords and the breaking up of joint families. Due to urbanization materialistic approach is increased and reduces the emotional ties and develops secondary relationships among people. They develop a certain way of life that is typical of the urban mindset: distant, secondary type relations, calculative, independent, rational, less impact of traditions, family, religion, customs, etc. The urban environment and way of life are more materialist, radical, commercial, individualist, and non-conforming. Urbanisation has led to the notion of being ''lonely in a crowd".
