INTRODUCTION TO RURAL- URBAN DIVIDE
Rural- Urban divide cannot be understood without defining what is considered to be rural or urban. A
Rural area is one which is characterized by domination of extensive uses of land. The rural community
is the smallest spatial group which encompasses the principal features of society, being a group of
people interacting socially with common ties or bonds with the geographically limited rural territory inwhich they live. It is also the smallest social group that is largely self- sufficient in terms of meeting its
members daily social needs.
The term Urban means characteristic of or situated in a city or a town. It is customary to define urban
area in terms of its physical characteristics like size and density of population in the continuous built uparea and functional criteria reflecting the concentration of employment in secondary and tertiary activity.
The Census of India, 2001 defined an urban area as:
a) Administrative: A legal status conferred upon the area by the state or law or any town area,notified board, statutory body or municipal corporation is termed as urban
b) Demography:1) Population Size: Any area having a population of 5000 persons or above.2) Population Density: Any area having a population density above 334 persons per km. sq.
3) At least 75 % of male working population engaged in non- agricultural activities.
The definition by Census is vague and needs a lot of clarity but it is still most widely used in India to
classify or declassify any place as rural or urban.
Rural- Urban divide should not be confused with Rural- Urban Fringe which is an area of land useconflict where a process of change from rural to urban use is taking place. Rural- Urban Divide is a
phenomenon and not any land use process which describes the differentials in the economy, polity,
society and infrastructure in rural and urban areas. It encompasses a wide array of variables that help in
determining the extent and limit of rural- urban divide. It is the objective of each and every policy makerto reduce as much as possible the rural- urban divide to provide stage for rural- urban continuum.
In political and planning context, rural- urban divide is caused due to differential allocation of resources.
Demographically, rural- urban divide is reflected primarily in the size of population, densities and their
social and medical status as well as the dominant societal norms, customs and traditions in a rural and
urban place.
Rural-urban disparities, particularly in post-colonial countries, have for long been one of the causes of
concern for the policymakers. The disparities are seen in all spheres of human life - economic and non-
economic. The extent of disparities, however, differs from country to country. The long colonial rule inIndia had created an urban-rural divide. What causes great concern now-a-days is the sharp increase inthe level of disparities after a few decades of planning, especially because planning was conceived as an
instrument to narrow down rural-urban disparities.
Rural India encompasses a little less than three-fourths of the country's population and is characterizedby low income levels, poor quality of life and a weak base of human development. Nearly one-third of
the national income comes from villages, but there is a significant rural-urban divide.

Agriculture is the mainstay of most post-colonial countries like India. It supports roughly two-thirds of
the workforce. But the lion's share of India's national resources is directed to the non-agricultural sector.The bias of the state in favour of urban areas is evident from the per capita expenditure on basic
services. According to the estimate of the Eleventh Finance Commission, per capita expenditure on
basic services in rural areas during 1997-98 was Rs.24, but in urban areas it was Rs.49. Rural India
contributes 27 per cent to the GDP, but gets back only 5 per cent, which is less than one-fifth of itscontribution.
In a post-colonial capitalist country like India, uneven rural-urban development or rural-urban disparity
is not unusual. While it is almost impossible to bring it to an end, it is possible to reduce the disparity to
a tolerable level. It may be recalled that Gandhi emphasized on rural growth and pleaded for village
swaraj. He wanted the engine of India's development to start rolling down from the villages. But it
became clear from the discussions in the Constituent Assembly that it would not happen. Dr. B.R.
Ambedkar characterized villages as "a sink of localism, ignorance and communalism". Nehru felt that
villages were culturally backward and no progress could be made from such places. Urban bias wasclearly reflected in the attitude of the policymakers. This seems to be continuing unabated.
In the Human Development Index prepared by the Planning Commission, there is a significant divide.The value for rural areas is 0.340, in the case of urban areas it is as high as 0.511. The index is a
composite of variables capturing attainments in three dimensions of human development namely,
economic, educational and health. The same is the situation in respect of the Human Poverty Index: rural42.25 and urban 44.8.
We need to look further whether this rural- urban divide exists or is it lessening. The popular notion is
that growth not only has been skewed towards urban India but also has been gained at the expense of the
countryside.
Some of this thinking can be traced back to economic decisions made soon after India wonindependence from Britain in 1947. At that time, policy makers emphasized capital-intensive
industrialisation and urban infrastructure rather than agricultural investment and rural land reform,
leading to the urban-rural imbalance. Often overlooked in discussions of this issue, however, is the fact
that the rural economy is no longer limited to agriculture. During the past two decades, rural India has
diversified significantly into non-farm activities -- and this has brought India's cities much closer to their
hinterlands than people might imagine.
In their research, Purushothaman and her colleagues uncovered four links between rural and urban
economies: Production relationships, Consumption relationships, Financial linkages and Migration.Their study explores the consumption connection and highlights the impact of growing urban
consumption expenditure on rural employment and incomes.
She lists three urban myths about contemporary rural India. The first is that faster economic growth in
urban India -- as compared to rural areas -- is driving rapid urbanization; second, that rural India is still
an agricultural economy; and third, that rural-urban inequality is on the rise.

The reality, Purushothaman points out, is very different. During the past two decades, the rural economy
in India has grown significantly faster than the urban economy. During the past decade alone, the rural
economy is estimated to have grown on average by 7.3% as compared to 5.4% in the urban economy.
Purushothaman points out that with agriculture only growing at 3.2% on average; much of this growth is
driven by the rural non-farm sector. As of 2000, agriculture accounted for 51.8% of rural economic
activity. This represents a significant decline from 64% in the early 1980s and 72% in early 1970s.
Moreover, services -- which accounted for 21% of rural activity in 1981 -- now account for 28%. In
addition, manufacturing, utilities and construction have nearly doubled their share in the rural economy,
from just under 10% in 1971 to 18% in 2000.
Purushothaman also debunked the popular notion that India's economic growth is driving rapid
urbanization. According to Census data, while rural-urban migration as a share of total rural population
was 6.5% in 1981, in 2001 it fell to 2.8%. The study points out that "the slow rates of rural-urban
migration along with declining rates of natural increase in urban areas" indicate that the process of
urbanization in India is actually slowing down as a result of economic growth.
According to Purushothaman, policies that inhibit the growth of labor-intensive industries and a lack of
urban infrastructure investment have slowed the process of urbanization.
On the issue of rural-urban inequality, research by Purushothaman and her colleagues indicates that the
urban-rural income gap (or the ratio of mean urban to rural incomes) has decreased since the early
1990s. Rural employment figures also reveal interesting insights. Between 2000 and 2005, rural
agricultural employment growth was as low as 1%. This indicates that growth in the agricultural sector
has not really resulted in a significant increase in jobs in the countryside. In contrast, during the same
period, non-farm jobs have gone up by 20%.
In this paper, I am focusing upon 2 districts of India, 1991 i.e. Faridabad in Haryana and Kanpur Nagar
in Uttar Pradesh. I have tried to bring out the true picture of rural-urban divide through some indicatorslike sex ratio, literacy rate, workforce participation in agricultural activities and population density of the
leading city of the district and the surrounding villages. The cities of Faridabad and Kanpur were the
leading metropolitan cities in their respective states in 1991, enabling me to bring out the differences orsimilarities between the villages and the city.

DELINEATION OF STUDY AREA
The study area comprises of two districts, namely Faridabad in Haryana and Kanpur Nagar in Uttar
Pradesh in 1991. Both the districts have been selected because of their leading cities of Faridabad andKanpur who were metropolitan in nature in 1991. Both the districts are part of Northern plains in India
and support large population size and agrarian society. The two areas have been discussed in detail as
following:
FARIDABAD:Location: Faridabad lies at 28 25' 16" N Latitude and 77 18' 28" E Longitude. The district shares its
boundaries with the National Capital and the Union Territory of Delhi to its north, Gurgaon district to
the west and Uttar Pradesh to its east and south. Faridabad enjoys a prime location both geographicallyand politically. At a distance of just 25 km from India's capital city of Delhi, Faridabad has well
connected network of road and railways. Most of the South and West bound trains of India pass through
the district and all the major towns are served by NH-2.
Faridabad is a southeastern town in the state of Haryana founded in 1607 AD by a Muslim bureaucrat,
Shaikh Farid, treasurer to Emperor Jehangir's court or named after Baba Farid, a Sufi saint. It is planned
in a semi circle with the Industrial area along the circumference surrounding the town. One of the oldesttowns in Haryana, it is a bustling industrial town, although the district itself is the 12th one to be formed
on 15 August 1979.
Being a project for Pakistani refugee resettlement after the partition, light industrial development was
initiated in the town in 1950. Now famous for its tourist resorts, refugees laid down the initial
infrastructure of the present Faridabad. Faridabad is the most populated and the most industrialized in
the entire state of Haryana and is home to 14,77,000 people.
Geography: It has an average elevation of 198 metres (649 ft).The city is located on the plains of the
Yamuna river. It is bordered by the Yamuna to the east and Aravali Hills towards the west andsouthwest. Today, virtually all of the land has been developed with residential housing as the population
of the city swelled during the mid 90s.Much like the rest of India, the people of Faridabad rely on
ground water for their basic needs which is the gift of good monsoon season.
Economy: Wheat, pulses and commercial crops are products that contribute to the districts agricultural
scenario. Electricity has reached practically every corner of Faridabad making it possible to highly
mechanize this belt. About half a million people are employed in over 15,000 small, medium and largeindustries in this multifaceted land. Tractors, steel re-rolling, scientific instruments, power looms,agriculture implements, motorcycles, switch gears, refrigerators, shoes, tyres and JCB crane are widely
produced in the district. Faridabad Heena is also a renowned production.

The district of Faridabad in 1991 had 4 tahsils named as Faridabad, Ballabhgarh, Palwal and Hathin with
5 Community Development Blocks with the same name along with Hodal. The districts extent is more
as compared to Kanpur Nagar and it has more share of villages rather than urban areas.

KANPUR NAGAR:Location: The city's coordinates are 26.4670 North and 80.3500 East, placing it 83 km from
Lucknow, the capital city of Uttar Pradesh.Kanpur district (Kanpur Nagar District) is one of the districts
of the Uttar Pradesh state ofIndia. It is a part ofKanpur division and its district headquarters is Kanpur.
Due to increase in population ofKanpur District, for proper administration it has been divided into two.The term Kanpur refers to the combination of Kanpur Nagar District and Kanpur Dehat District. Kanpur
District was divided into two districts namely Kanpur-Nagar and Kanpur-Dehat in year 1977 andreunited again in year 1979. It was again separated in year 1981.
Kanpur is the popular and biggest important industrial centre in Uttar Pradesh with its own historical,
religious and commercial importance. Kanpur is located on the banks of the river Ganga. Kanpur, the
name of the city derived from Kanhiyapur (the city of Lord Krishna). About 25 km from Kanpur is
Bithoor. Legend has it that the wife ofLord Rama came to live at the ashram of the sage Valmiki, after
Rama expelled her from Ayodhya. It was here that Sita gave birth to the twins Lav and Kush, and
disappeared back into the earth when confronted by a repentant Rama. Bithoor is also the site of the fort
to which Nana Sahib escaped following the British retaking of Kanpur. Today, Bithoor is a tourist spot
on the banks of the Ganges and Kanpur is expanding very fast with new residential complexes sprouting
up everywhere.
Geography: Kanpur, along with Allahabad and Fatehpur, are part of the Lower Doab, which inantiquity was known as the Vats country. It is surrounded by two main rivers of India, the Ganges in the
north-east and the Pandu river (Yamuna) in the south. The districts surrounding Kanpur are Hamirpur in
the south and Unnao in the north-east
Economy: After 1857 it became an important center of the Leather and Textile industries. The
Government Harness and Saddler Factory were started in 1860 to supply the army with leather products,followed by Cooper Allen & Co. in 1880. The first cotton textile mill, the Elgin Mills was started in
1862 and Muir Mills in 1882, and many others that followed in the next 40 years, such as Victoria Mills
and Atherton West & Co. (Atherton Mills), made Cawnpore a major textile producer. It has thepopulation of 6 million people. It is famous for leather and textile goods of superior quality. It is now
one of the main industrialized cities. Kanpur city is famous for leather, wool, cotton, vegetable oil mills,
chemical works and sugar refineries. Formerly known as Manchester of the country, it is now also called
the commercial capital of the state.

The district of Kanpur Nagar is basically smaller in area than Faridabad and is more urban in nature than
Faridabad. The district of Kanpur Nagar had 1 tahsil in 1991 named as Kanpur with 3 Vikas Khands
named as Kalyanpur, Bidhnu and Sarsaul.

METHODOLOGY AND INDICATORS
Methodology: This study basically focuses upon the applicability of the rural- urban divide in Kanpur
Nagar and Faridabad in 1991. Initially, the data had been sorted in categories according to the distancefrom city center and calculated to obtain meaningful data corresponding to the indicators used to
determine rural- urban divide.
To bring out the differences more clearly, maps and graphs have been used to bring out a clear picture of
the problem and allow for comparison.
The Choropleth maps are used to demarcate the villages according to distances from the city center and
the Bar graphs are used to show the difference among the indicators and between the indicators for the
various distances and the city and district on the whole.
Choropleth: It means quantity in an area. It is primarily used to show distribution and density. It helps
in bringing out the distribution of indicators in each district of the state, hence giving a comprehensive
picture about the major pockets of concentration of development and backwardness.
Merits: Choropleth is used as it is helpful in reflecting variations and is easy tounderstand. It is also a good technique to represent absolute data.
Demerits: Main demerit of Choropleth is that it follows administrative boundaries, soactual variations may not be known. Also, class interval and shading needs to be wisely
selected in order to avoid distortions.
Vertical Bar: In bar diagram, height of bar is directly proportional to quantity. It is used to represent
variations between components of same data set. Here, comparison is being made in context of Male-
female variations in each district and among the districts.
Merits: The construction of bar is very simple and easy. It can be easily understood and isgood for comparison.
Demerits: It is not much useful in the event of high range between maximum andminimum values. It also covers a lot of space.
Indicators: The following indicators are being used for determining the Rural- Urban divide:
1) Population Density: Population density is a measurement ofpopulation per unit area or unitvolume. It is a key geographic term.
2) Sex Ratio: Sex ratio is the ratio ofmales to females in a population at a particular point of time.3) Literacy Rate: The total percentage of the population of an area at a particular time aged seven
years or above who can read and write with understanding.
4) Workers in Agricultural and Non- Agricultural activities: More workers in agriculturalactivities represent an area to be more rural and vice versa.

OBSERVATION AND INTERPRETATION
District of Faridabad, 1991:
The population density in Faridabad shows a decreasing trend from the city center with increase in
distance. The decline is not steep or sudden but it is constant. The density decreases from 4 persons per
km.sq. in 0-10 km. category to 2 persons per km. sq. in 50 -60 km. category. Less density is indicative
of a rural setting as rural areas are characterized by large open spaces where man to land ratio is low.
Declining population density as we move away from the city center also reflects the rural- urban
disparity in utilization or under- utilization of resources. It also represents low levels of population in
rural areas as compared to urban resulting in low levels of population density.
Haryana has always been characterized as a state having the lowest levels of sex ratio in comparison to
the entire nation. The highest sex ratio of 847 females is found in 10-20 km. category while the lowest
sex ratio of 806 females is found in 50-60 km. category. Low levels of females are not a positive
indicator. Rural areas are generally representative of high sex ratios due to out- migration of male
8/2/2019 Final Assignment Urban
12/18
members of the family in search of better employment opportunities, but the case with Haryana is
different as it is a very prosperous state and does not require out migration by male members to access
better opportunities. In such a scenario, having lower levels of females in rural areas is an indicator of
ruralurban disparity. This may also be because of the prevalent practices of female foeticide and
female child abortions due to societal customs of the region wherein a girl child is seen as a burden on
the family and not very much preferred over a male heir. These customs are more prevalent in
homogenous rural societies rather than a heterogeneous urban setting.
High literacy rates are a prominent characteristic of urban areas and vice- versa. The current graph
represents low levels of literacy rate as you move away from the city center. The highest level of literacyrate is found in 0-10 km. category with 54% and the lowest level of literacy is reflected in 40- 50 km.
category with only 37% as literates. The areas nearer to the city center have high levels of literacy rate.
This may be attributed to the fact that rural areas may be infested with problems of inaccessibility of
schools along with their unavailability and scarcity. Also, the infrastructure of schools being provided
might not be adequate enough to support larger capacities of students. Low levels of literacy in rural
areas may also be attributed to the fact that in rural areas the employment opportunities is such that do
not demand much of education and there is this easy going attitude in attending schools and becoming
literates.

More number of workers engaged in agricultural activities is reflective of a rural area whose economy
basically runs on primary activities and hence a large number or all of the workers are engaged inagriculture and allied activities. In the above graph, it is clearly visible that as we move away, the
percentage of workers engaged in primary activities increase reflecting the more dominant rural nature
of the area. The highest proportion of agricultural workers is reflected in 50-60 km. category with 83 %
of workforce engaged in primary activities while the lowest proportion of agricultural workers is in 0-10
km. category with only 55% engaged in agriculture and allied activities. According to Census of India,
2001, for any region to be urban, at least 75% of its male working members must be engaged in non-
agricultural pursuits. Any scenario opposite to this is reflective of a rural setting.

District of Kanpur Nagar, 1991:
The current graph is reflecting the trend of population density. The highest population density is 5
persons per km. sq. of 10- 20 km. category, followed by 0-10 km. with 4 persons per km. sq. and 20-30
km. having the least population density of all three i.e. 3 persons per km.sq.10 -20 km. category is
having the highest population density because this zone has the highest number of villages and lies
adacent to Kanpur city depicting the influence of city on its surroundings. Low levels of population
density refer to the fact that both population levels and land area is less in the category 20-30 km.
This graph is showing the highest number of females in 10 -20 km. category with 838 females followed
by 20- 30 km. category with 835 and 0-10 km. category with 834 females per 1000 males. The sex ratio
is quite low but at least it is reflecting the narrow divide between rural and urban areas with all the
categories having sex ratio almost or close to each other, further strengthening ruralurban continuum
or may be displaying fringe characteristics.
8/2/2019 Final Assignment Urban
15/18
Literacy rate is showing a reverse scenario in context of literacy rates in Faridabad. In this, as we go
away from the city center, the number of literates increase. This may be attributed to the location of themajor universities and colleges in Kanpur Nagar away from and outside the Kanpur city resulting in
concentrations and pockets of literates in the district.
The category of 20 -30 km. has the highest proportion of workers involved in agricultural activities i.e.
79 % followed by categories 0-10 and 10-20 km. with 77 % workers engaged in agricultural pursuits.
This minor difference is indicative of lower levels of difference and reduced levels of rural urban
disparity.
If we compare both the districts we might be able to see the difference between the two. The districts
portray varied characteristics almost opposite to one another on all four indicators. Faridabad shows theideal picture of increasing rural- urban divide with increasing distance whereas Kanpur Nagar is
reflecting a reverse scenario. Kanpur Nagar is depicting closer affinity towards rural- urban continuum
8/2/2019 Final Assignment Urban
16/18
or ruralurban fringe rather than ruralurban divide. The smaller extent of Kanpur Nagar district and its
closer proximity to the city of Kanpur is responsible for this phenomenon in contrast to the Faridabad
district which has a larger area span and has many villages located far away from the city of Faridabad.
CONCLUSION
Given the situation, what can be done to reduce the level of disparity to a desirable level is a matter thatcalls for serious consideration. There is no doubt that India's rural economy cannot grow without
agricultural development. Capitalist agricultural productivity is constrained by the system itself.
Effective land reform coupled with non-land input support to the beneficiaries can result in an increase
in agricultural productivity.
Apart from taking steps to increase human development facilities in the villages, such as health and
education, and develop appropriate infrastructure such as roads and marketing facilities, there is the needfor generating employment, which can better the living conditions of villagers. We need to adopt a long-
term policy, keeping in mind the requirements of the rural and urban areas. A close look at the
development plan exercises tends to demonstrate that ad-hocism permeates the policy processes.
In the rural areas there are many resources lying un-utilised. It is time to identify these and make proper
use of them. The application of Information Technology can be of great help in identifying what is lyingun-utilised or under-utilised.
Kerala has shown the way through the people's campaign for de-centralised planning. Rural-urbandisparity is the least in Kerala. There is a rural-urban continuum, rather than a divide. The people's
campaign has definitely helped to make further improvement in the situation. The fact, however,remains that these steps at the State level, no matter how significant they are, cannot fully take care of
the problem unless there is a shift of policy at the national level. This calls for sustained pressure fromthe bottom, that is, rural India. Secondly, urban development in a country like India has to dovetail with
rural development. Otherwise, rural out migration will upset the applecart.
