Answer 1

A road connecting the city to a countryside experiencing development activities like building of roads, flyover and bridges to interconnect with various cities. Citizens living in the countryside main ocucupation was farming,livestock and poultry amd dairy farms. Basically, living with the main motive of subsistence living. Area ocuppied by sugarcane factory, situated nearly 300 km away from the city operating seasonally saw the influx of immigrant labour during the peak season. Farmers parked trucks and tractors in a long queue fully loaded with sugarcane and sitting in the shade of tree playing cards and listening music. As sugarcane factory, goes for a seasonal break, labours moved to cities in search of work in construction factory or on the farmlands to sow the kharif crop. People are living in a below poverty line with meagre income, low standard of living and poor health standards. Children below the age of 10 years were employed in the farms leading to low turnout in the schools and teaching instututions. State government started mid day meal scheme under which rice, pulse and soyabean is provided so that adequate level of nutrition should reach children. Health cards were made enlisted with vaccines provided by medical staff of the government school to increse student turnout ratio. Three - fourth of the area is covered with the dense forest but the deforestation was done by the government authorities for development purpose. But it was strongly opposed by the citizens considering nature as sacred part of their beliefs. Later on goverment promise to grow twice the number of tree whic are being cut, they all agreed. Due to developmental projects like roads, water parks, educational institutions, hospitals various business parks and mega food parks occupied land and started their operations. Initally, the enterprises spends heavily on skilling the local population but later they reaped the benefit by getting educated and healthy workforce doing job efficiently and effectively. Farmers moving from subsistence farming to growing commercial crops which are being further processed in food parks led to creation of employement, generation of higher level of income and higher standard of living.

The postives aspect of development phase for citizens made them healthy, wealthy and wise but at the same time they saw rising pollution levels in the air, polluted river, higher use of non biodegradable waste such as plastics, which are harmful for environment.
