electron flow will increase as we know that resistance of a wire is inveresly proportional to its length. so if u make it thinner, the area of the cross section will decrease and current flow will increase.

pinky234: this is not apt answer
AlanTesla: updated. i didn't understand ur ques 1stly. sry for that

hi friend..

The resistance of the wire will increase if the resistance of the conductor is made thinner...
since we know that
Resistance (R) = rho × lenght....

so,,,,,
area is directly proportional to the radius of the wire...

hope this helps u...

pinky234: yes it is helpful thank u
dimpy7: ok..
