Justification

→ The topic related material is so vast, that’s why for narrowing

down we chose particular sample.
4th year and 5th year student have good knowledge on the
topic that was the reason for choosing them .

→Expertise have always good knowledge in their own subject .

So we chose a urban planner for interview

we chose those samples because it was feasible for us, since

they were inside the nsu campus.
