The Informal Sector is an important sector for the development of Indian Economy. Rapid urbanization has been an integral part of the developing economies during past couple of decades. This process has motivated the rural people to come to the cities in search of employment. This rural-urban migration has made phenomenal increase in urban population and urban workforce as well. In most Indian cities, the urban poor survive by working in the Informal Sectors. The main thrust of the study is to examine the demographic and socio-economic profile of street vendors and hawkers in the college square area of Bhubaneswar City.
