The population growth in Mumbai is due to two main factors: - rates of natural increase - national and international migration (mostly rural to urban) From 2001 to 2011 population in Mumbai increased by 3.4million, approximately a 50/50 split migration v's natural increase.

Answer:

Population Size and City Size

Step-by-step explanation:

The rapid population growth is attributed to migration from other regions in the country, with migrants seeking business and employment opportunities. The population of Mumbai has more than doubled since 1991, when the census showed that there were 9.9 million people living in the area.
