The biggest problem in the modern world, particularly in emerging countries, is socioeconomic status. Over time, the socioeconomic situation in rural areas is progressively getting better. The socioeconomic position of the population in rural areas has been improved via the implementation of numerous programmes and initiatives. However, residents in rural areas could not develop equally across the region in an economic sense. Different economic classes can be found, even in a tiny community. The biggest majority rules system with consistent economic development since autonomy is India. India has the third-biggest labor force in science and innovation. In terms of agriculture, India produces enormous quantities of milk, sugar, groundnuts, tea, fruits, rice, and wheat. Despite these advancements, there is still a significant technological, living, and economic disparity between rural and urban India. Many people in rural India are enslaved by poverty because they lack access to assets like land, food, health care, sanitation, and education. There is a high baby death rate and a miscreant hope upon entering the world rate in rural India. Agriculture is the main industry that supports rural India. When opposed to the secondary and tertiary sectors, which are developing at rates of 8–12%, the agricultural sector's (primary sector) growth rate is 2-3%. As a result, there is a significant labour force movement from rural to urban regions in journey of business. With the use of certain socio-economic indices, an analysis of the rural-urban inequality is attempted in this work.
