How can you say that urban poverty is a spillover of rural poverty to a large extent?

Solution

It is right to say that urban poverty is a spillover of rural poverty. People tend to migrate from rural areas to urban areas in search of alternative occupations. But in urban areas they do not find jobs beyond subsistence. In this way, they only add to the percentage of urban population below poverty line.
