      Explain the term debt-trap. Why is it more rampant in rural areas? Give two reasons.

    Answer:

                      Debt-trap is a situation in which a person after taking a loan is not able to pay back the loan. It is more common in rural areas because (i) A borrower repays a loan by selling the agricultural produce, Which sometimes may not be enough to repay the loan. (ii) Rural borrowers normally depend on informal sources of credit who charge a high rate of interest. This repayment of larger amounts may sometimes be larger than their income.
