Which of the following situation does not describe urban impact on vi…

The correct answer is Option (3) → It does not stimulate a demand for houses and a market inside the village

Option (1) There are villages in which a sizeable number of people have sought employment in far-off cities — Describes urban impact (Incorrect). This is M.S.A. Rao’s first kind of urban impact: migrants live in far-off cities, send money home and build houses in their natal villages.

Option (2) Some villages have been totally uprooted — Describes urban impact (Incorrect). In the second kind, when an industrial town like Bhilai comes up in the midst of villages, some villages are totally uprooted while the lands of others are partly acquired.

Option (3) It does not stimulate a demand for houses and a market inside the village — Does not describe it (Correct). Villages near an industrial town receive an influx of immigrant workers, which stimulates a demand for houses and a market inside the village. The option denies the very effect the study describes.

Option (4) It creates problem of ordering relationships between the native residents and the immigrants — Describes urban impact (Incorrect). The same influx of workers creates problems of ordering relationships between the native residents and the immigrants.
