Solution 2

Urbanisation is the process by which an increasing proportion of a country’s population starts living in towns and cities rather than in rural areas. It involves the growth and expansion of urban areas due to factors like migration, industrialisation, and economic development.

As people move from villages to cities in search of better employment, education, healthcare, and living standards, urban centres increase in size and population. Urbanisation also includes the transformation of rural settlements into urban ones due to improvements in infrastructure and services.
