Urbanization:
Urbanization refers to the population shift from rural to urban areas. The process of urbanization affects all sizes of settlements, so villages gradually grow to become small towns, smaller towns become larger towns, and large towns become cities. This trend has led to the growth of mega-cities.
Deurbanisation:
Deurbanisation is the process in which people move from the urban areas to rural areas.
Industries are being established outside the city because of more affordable cost and the taxes and insurance at a cheaper price and also more people to work than in Urban Areas.

Public Interest Litigation or PIL
The Supreme Court, therefore, devised a mechanism of Public Interest Litigation or PIL in the early 1980s in order to increase access to justice. It allowed any individual or organisation to file a PIL in the High Court or the Supreme Court on behalf of these whose rights were being violated. The legal process was greatly simplified and even a letter or telegram addressed to the Supreme Court or the High Court could be treated as a PIL.

In a democracy, the government is formed after elections. After the elections, a list is prepared which indicates the winner of each Lok Sabha seat. These winners become the Members of Parliament (MPs). The political party with the majority of these MPs forms the government. Since there are 543 seats in Lok Sabha, a party must secure at least half i.e. 272 seats in Parliament to form a government. Sometimes, no single political party is able to win 272 seats on its own and get the majority to form the government. In that situation, two or more political parties with similar concerns join together to get the majority and form a Coalition Government.

In a democracy every citizen is equal. The concept of Universal Adult Franchise is based on equality. Therefore, it is important in a democracy. Under Universal Adult Franchise every adult irrespective of caste, creed, religion, *** etc. has the right to vote.
Universal Adult Franchise means the right to vote should be given to all adult citizens without any discrimination on the basis of caste, colour, creed, *** or religion. There should be no qualifications property or education and others. Only lunatics, minors, bankrupts, criminals and aliens are deprived of the right to vote. The age of adulthood differs from country to country. For instance it is 21 years in America, 18 years in India and England and 23 years in Norway.
In a democratic country like ours there is much significance of adult franchise because equality is the basic of democracy. And in the system of Universal Adult Franchise also everyone is treated equally without any type of discrimination. This system provides political education to the citizens and they also develop the feelings of self-respect.

Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was an Indian lawyer, anti-colonial nationalist, and political ethicist, who employed nonviolent resistance to lead the successful campaign for India's independence from British rule, and in turn inspired movements for civil rights and freedom across the world. Gandhi was born in Porbandar in 1869 and received primary education in the city. He was not a bright student and used to learn by writing with his finger in the dust. He was neither considered to be very gifted in the classroom nor in the playing field. Gandhi's basic education is a breakthrough in the prevalent and traditional system of education. He holds the view that a child's education should begin with the teaching of a useful craft to enable him to produce something right from the beginning of his study and training.

Following are the five functions of the Parliament:
- The members of the Lok Sabha select the executive wing of the Government. The Executive implements the laws which are made by the Parliament.
- The leader of the ruling party which gets the majority in the Lok Sabha elections is chosen as the Prime Minister of the country. He selects the Council of Ministers and the cabinet ministers who look after various departments such as defence, health and education.
- The Rajya Sabha is the Upper House of the Parliament. It represents various states of India in the Parliament as its members are elected by the elected members of the Legislative Assemblies of the states.
- The Parliament can control and review the work of the Government. The session of the Parliament begins with a ‘Question Hour’, where the members of the Parliament question various policies of the Government. They thus control the executive by asking questions on the implementation of various policies.
- The opposition parties play an important role by questioning various policies of the Government. It draws the attention of the people towards the flaws in government policies.
