Expert Solution
Step 1
Rural to urban migration primarily occurs due to wage differential. People living in the rural areas migrate to the urban areas in the hope of getting better work opportunities which will fetch them a higher income. Hence, if economic and social policies are undertaken so as to increase the real income of people living in the rural areas, they are less likely to migrate to the urban areas.
