Question

Explain the decennial growth rate of urban population. (Note: The OCR incorrectly read "ocean population" - based on previous context, it should be "urban population")

Hint:

Decennial growth rate shows the pace of urbanization over decades. India's urban growth rate peaked in 1971-81 and has been declining since, though absolute urban population continues to grow. This indicates maturation of the urbanization process.
