Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
India's most socially vulnerable groups are the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes. No matter where they live, whether in an urban or a rural area, these groups have to suffer in both places. Both groups have above-average poverty levels according to the specific indicators of both regions. The reasons behind this condition are that they are being neglected by the most critical sectors of the economy like they are not provided proper education facilities, health care facilities, or basic sanitary facilities, because of which many a time they fell ill because they are living in more disease prone areas. Due to the lack of literacy, they are not even aware of the rights and steps for which they should take a stand to improve their living standards.
