Where is DISTINCT written?
Short answer. Right after SELECT.
Does AS rename the column in the table?
No. Only in the output.
Remember
| DISTINCT: no repeats |
| AS: new column heading |
| The table does not change |
Your city list repeats Surat. How do you show it once? Distinct removes repeats. As gives the column a new heading, Town, only in the output. Distinct removes repeats. As renames the heading. The table stays the same.
