Todays world due to the modernisation becomes a global
village. Owing to the rise in population and polarization of
people towards mega cities from small towns, the people of small towns are enthralled by the luxuries life of metropolitan cities. But, this issue leads to other social troubles for the people as well. However, this issue has many causes and effects on the society. There are numerous reasons why people migrate to big cities from rural areas. Firstly, they want opulent amenities of life and elegant lifestyle which they cannot get in rural areas. However, tremendous amount of employment and job opportunities available in the urban areas. Secondly, cities offer better infrastructure, better health and education services and transportation facilities. The lucrative opportunities are offered by the various sectors for skilled works. Also, people enjoy at recreational places like amusement parks, restaurants and so on. But, this luxurious life they cannot get in the rural areas. Moreover, migration of people causes dense population in the cities and disastrous overuse of natural resources while the rural context loses its economy and cultural depth. People work from dawn to dusk, due to longer working hours life becomes hectic, busy and troublesome. People of urban areas are more egocentric, they are not connected with their roots, they do not know about their cultures and traditions, they forget their moral and ethics and they live exotic life. Even though, students who live in the urban areas sometimes may indulge into the bad company. According to my perspective, government should find solution to aiding the development of rural areas. In addition, Government must improve the infrastructure of small towns so that dwellers in those areas also better standard of living, good health and education facilities. Furthermore, adequate employment opportunities should be crated in small towns so that people of such areas easily earn their livelihood.
In conclusion, I firmly believe that if we have to make balance
in society, economy and culture. Government should check the migration rate and take some positive steps towards the development of small towns.
