Abstract

Middle class is often associated with urbanization and Substantial
numbers of the middle class living in the urban areas. Middle class
also lives in the remote areas, town and villages, which appears to be
much lower. That is not what would justify the rising middle class.
However, it is more difficult in a developing society in Pakistan where
social and economic mobility of poor and lower classes not been so
rapid or even consistent. Middle class has always been aware, in every
historical context, of its rights and political identification and
recognition that it tends to demonstrate through voting in larger
numbers and organizing protest movements
