Therefore, the pull of a relatively highly urban rewards is quite striong and a large number of people migrate to the cities.

c)       PUSH BACK TOWARDS RURAL OR SMALL TOWNS: Though cities provide jobs in organized and unorganized sector at relatively higher wages, they cannot absorb all the people seeking jobs in productive activities. Recently urban unemployment has surpaved the rate of rural unemployment. As a result sometimes there is ‘push back’ factor in economic transformation.
