every major industrialized country in the world has experienced a shift over time from a largely rural, agrarian-dwelling population to one that lives in urban, nonagricultural centers. With the development of India＇s economy, India will be no different about urbanization. However, India＇s urbanization will be on a scale that is unprecedented. The population of today＇ s India cities is a microcosm of the nation as a whole ---a rich mix of communities, cultures, professions, and income classes from the most deprived sections of society to a middle class majority.
