                      \nAnswer:
                      \nAdvantages:<\/p>\n

                        \n
                      1. Economic Improvement – The production in various industrial sectors like cement, iron and steel, textile, fertilizers computing etc. is helping in the economic growth of the country. Export increases and in turn Foreign Exchange increases.<\/li>\n
                      2. Educational facilities – More schools, colleges, and universities are established in cities to train and develop human resources. Varieties of educational choices are available offering students a wide choice for their future careers.<\/li>\n
                      3. Development in tourist industries: People from foreign countries are towns having better transport facilities. Tourism is a good source of foreign currency for a country<\/li>\n
                      4. Social integration – People of many castes, groups, and religions live and work together in cities, which creates better understanding and harmony and helps breakdown social and cultural barriers.<\/li>\n
                      5. Improvement in Science, Culture etc. Urban places are the meeting point of all good cultures of various localities. Science and technology developments take place in urban places improving society SS a whole.<\/li>\n
                      6. Living conditions – Cities are often more efficient than in rural areas. Less effort is needed to supply basic amenities such as fresh water and electricity. Research and recycling programs are possible only in cities. In most cities, flats are prevalent In flats many people can be accommodated within a small land area.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                        Disadvantages of Urbanization:<\/p>\n

                          \n
                        1. Destruction of Natural Habitats of Flora and Fauna- In the making of an urban area, a lot of forest areas are destroyed which otherwise would have been natural habitats to many birds and animals.<\/li>\n
                        2. Crime: Due to urbanization many people benefit but not all get the opportunities which result in those people doing illegal things like robbery, kidnapping, murder, and so on and thus one can say that urbanization is the party behind the increasing crime rates in big cities.<\/li>\n
                        3. Slums: The rapid inflows of rural population to urban places give rise to the housing problem and thus slums are developed in these places.<\/li>\n
                        4. Poor living conditions – Crowding and lack of sanitation. This often contributes to the outbreak of diseases. Utilities such as water, electricity, and sewage disposal are also lacking in such areas.<\/li>\n
                        5. Unemployment-Since the number of people aspiring for jobs is more than jobs available, unemployment is a natural outcome of the situation. Unemployment and poverty force people to engage in anti-social activities.<\/li>\n
                        6. Air pollution-Factories and automobiles are the most visible symbols of urbanization. Due to emissions of harmful gases and smoke from factories and vehicles, air pollution results. The high amount of suspended particles in air, particularly in cities, contribute to allergies and respiratory problems. It will create a health hazard.<\/li>\n
                        7. Shortage of workers: The decrease in rural population affects agricultural production due to the shortage of workers in rural areas.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
