The Congress under the leadership of Sonia Gandhi quickly realized the dynamics of development were constantly changing the demographic profile of modern India. While the increasing and fast developing urbanization of India is a reality it is vital at the same time to put the ramification or urbanisation into proper perspective. In fact it is the urban areas that provide the maximum impulses for economic growth. Research has shown that urbanization has actually improved the quality of life of women and other disadvantaged sections of the society. However, urbanization has to be rational and planned, and only then can its benefits be properly harnessed. On the one hand, urban areas require for the development the precious input of human capital that comes in from the villages. On the other, there is no reason why rural areas should be deprived of urban type civic amenities. In fact, the most effective and equitable way of controlling and rationalizing urban migration is to extend as far as possible urban amenities to rural areas. This is what Congress has achieved as a result of which gap between rural and urban areas has began to diminish.
