1.
Compare the following and give examples:Migration and slums
Answer»
The increase in the number of migratory people causes an increase in the slums.
Generally migration from rural to urban areas takes place in search of job opportunities, which are hard to find.
The housing facilities do not increase in the same proportion as the population, so the poor migrants can not afford the housing in the cities.
This encourages the migrants to build illegal temporary and semi-structured houses known as slums, in open spaces. e.g. Slums in Dharavi (Mumbai city)
