Where basically used to filter Records(Rows).

select * from emp where ename='smith';

So, Here we are putting Restriction on the rows only.

The WHERE clause is used to extract only those records that fulfill a specified criterion.

Eg: customers from the country "India", in the "Customers" table

SELECT * FROM Customers
WHERE Country='India';

WHERE basically used to filter Records(Rows).
when we write,

select * from student where city='Indore'

So, Here we are putting Restriction on the rows of a column city.

Where class is used to retrieve row data from the table.

Suppose we have a one emp table that contains some columns if we want get the information of empid 234 so we have to write,

SELECT * from emp where Empid=234.

In where clause we use the condition on the row tuple.
