Question
Explain:
Industrialisation causes cities to develop.
Solution
Industrialisation is the process in which an agriculturally-based economy transforms into a manufacturing sector. Worldwide, industrialisation has led to the creation of many cities. For instance, Britain was one of the first countries to witness early industrialisation that led to the development of cities like Manchester, Bradford, etc. In India, cities like Mumbai developed rapidly due to the presence of large textile mill bases, and many adjoining villages became part of the Mumbai metropolitan area.
