<p dir="ltr">For a town, the population criteria is quite small. To be called a town, it should meet all the following criteria:<br>
1)Population exceeds 5,000<br>
2)At least 75% of male working population is employed outside the agricultural sector<br>
3)Minimum population density of 400 persons per km<br></p>
