Based on their geographical settings and socio-cultural traits, Indian society has been widely categorised into urban, rural, and tribal societies. In the country, there exist variations between urban and rural areas in terms of educational institutions, career possibilities, housing, way of life, and other factors. The so-called urban-rural divide that characterises contemporary urbanisation in India started to emerge some 200 years ago. Differences in socio-demographic trends and economic sectors continue to be viewed as a barrier to sustainable development. In order to create new policies and programmes addressing India's general socioeconomic growth, this article attempts to examine the issue of rural-urban disparities. The Report on India Sample Vital Statistics (SVRS) of various years, released by the India Bureau of Statistics, served as the primary source of data for this study (BBS). It is discovered that despite government efforts to lessen rural-urban gap in the context of development, problems still exist between rural and urban areas. The findings of this study should aid in the development of creative and successful policies and programmes that might lessen India's disparities between rural and urban areas.
