You have to come in contact with a person that has it. It is an airborne disease, so you just need to breathe in the air they breathe out.
2 :
The bacteria that cause the disease are inhaled in the form of microscopic droplets that come from a person with tuberculosis. When coughing, speaking or sneezing, the small droplets are expelled into the air. They dry out quickly, but the bacteria itself can remain airborne for hours. However, the tuberculosis bacteria are killed when exposed to ultraviolet light, including sunlight. I hope that satisfied your curiosity
