2.Its total population is 1,028 million (2001).
3. India’s population is larger than the total population of North America, South America and Australia.

2.The percentage shares of population of the states and Union Territories in the country show that Uttar Pradesh has the highest population followed by Maharashtra, Bihar and West Bengal.
3.that U.P., Maharashtra, Bihar, West Bengal, Andhra Pradesh along with Tamil Nadu, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Karnataka and Gujarat, together account for about 76% of the total population.
4.population is very small in the
states like Jammu & Kashmir (1.04%),
Arunachal Pradesh (0.11%) and Uttarakhand (0.84%) inspite of their  large geographical area.
5.This India suggests a close relationship
between population and physical, socio-
economic and historical factors.]
6.  It is clear that climate along with terrain and availability of water largely determines the pattern of the population distribution.
7.The North Indian Plains, deltas and
Coastal Plains have higher proportion of
population than the interior districts of southern and central Indian States, Himalayas, some of the north eastern and the western states.
8.Development of irrigation (Rajasthan),
availability of mineral and energy resources
(Jharkhand) and development of transport
network (Peninsular States) have resulted in moderate to high concentration of population in areas.
9. The regions falling in the river
plains and coastal areas of India have remained the regions of larger population concentration.
10.The urban regions of Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Bangalore, Pune, Ahmedabad, Chennai and Jaipur have high concentration of population due to industrial development and Urbanisation.

Its rate is expressed in percentage.
2. Population growth has two components namely; natural and induced.
3. While the natural growth is analysed by assessing the crude birth and death rates.
4.The decadal and annual growth rates of population in India are both very high and steadily increasing over time. The annual growth rate of India’s population is 1.64% (2011).

1.The period from 1901-1921 is referred to as a period of stagnant or stationary phase of growth of India’s population.
2.In this period growth rate was very low, even recording a negative growth rate during 1911-1921.
3.Both the birth rate and death rate were high keeping the rate of increase low.
4. Poor health and medical services, illiteracy of people at large and inefficient distribution system of food and other basic necessities were largely responsible for a high birth and death rates in this period.
Phase II : 
1.The decades 1921-1951 are referred to as the period of steady population growth.
2. An overall improvement in health and sanitation throughout the country brought down the mortality rate.
3. At the same time better transport and communication system improved distribution system. 
3.The crude birth rate remained high in this period leading to higher growth rate than the previous phase. 
4.This is impressive at the backdrop of Great Economic Depression, 1920s and World War II.

Phase III :
1.The decades 1951-1981 are referred to as the period of population explosion in India, which was caused by a rapid fall in the mortality rate but a high fertility rate of population in the country.
2 .The average annual growth rate was as high as 2.2 %. 
3.It is in this period, after the Independence, that developmental activities were introduced through a centralised planning process and economy started showing up ensuring the improvement of living condition of people at large.

4.Consequently, there was a high natural increase and higher growth rate. Besides, increased international migration bringing in Tibetans, Bangladeshis, Nepalies and even people from Pakistan contributed to the high growth rate.
Phase IV : 
1.In the post 1981 till present, the growth rate of country’s population though remained high, has started slowing down gradually.
2.A downward trend of crude birth rate is held responsible for such a population growth.
3. This was, in turn, affected by an increase in the mean age at marriage, improved quality of life particularly education of females in the country.

2.The States like Kerala, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Odisha, Puducherry, and Goa show a low rate of growth not exceeding 20 % over the decade. Kerala registered the lowest growth rate (9.4%).
3.A continuous belt of states from west to east in the north west, north, and north central parts of the country has relatively high growth rate than the southern states: Gujarat, Maharashtra, Rajasthan, Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Madhya Pradesh, Sikkim, Assam, West Bengal,
Bihar, Chhattisgarh, and Jharkhand. The growth rate on the average remained 20-25 per cent.
4.During 2001-2011, the growth rates of almost all States and Union Territories have registered a lower figure compared to the previous decade, namely, 1991-2001. The
percentage decadal growth rates of the six most
populous States: Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Bihar, West Bengal, Andhra Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh.
5. The fall being the lowest for Andhra Pradesh (3.5%) and highest for Maharashtra (6.7%). Tamil Nadu (3.9%) and Puducherry (7.1%) have registered some increase during 2001-2011 over the previous decade.
6.An important aspect of population growth in India is the growth of its adolescents. At present the share of adolescents i.e., up to the age group of 10-19 years is about 20.9% (2011), among which male adolescents constitute 52.7% and female adolescents constitute 47.3%.
7. There are many challenges for the society as far as these adolescents are concerned, some of which are lower age at marriage, illiteracy – particularly female illiteracy, school dropouts, low intake of nutrients, high rate of maternal mortality of adolescent mothers, high rates of HIV/AIDS
infections, physical and mental disability or retardedness, drug abuse and alcoholism, juvenile delinquency and commitence of crimes, etc.
8. The Government of India has undertaken certain policies to impart proper education to the adolescent groups so that their talents are better channelised and properly utilised. The National Youth Policy is one example which has been designed to look into the overall development of our large youth and adolescent population.
9.The National Youth Policy of Government of India, launched in 2003, stresses on an all round improvement of the youth and adolescents enabling them to shoulder responsibility towards constructive development of the country. It also aims at reinforcing the qualities of patriotism and responsible citizenship.
10.This policy is youth empowerment in terms of their effective participation in decision making and carrying
the responsibility of an able leader. Special emphasis was given in empowering women and girl child to bring parity in the male-female status.

of persons per unit area. It helps in getting a
better understanding of the spatial distribution
of population in relation to land. The density of
population in India (2011) is 382 persons per
sq km. There has been a steady increase of more
than 200 persons per sq km over the last 50
years as the density of population increased
from 117 persons/ sq km in 1951 to 382
persons/sq km in 2011.
The data shown in Appendix (i)A give an
idea of spatial variation of population densities
in the country which ranges from as low as 17
persons per sq km in Arunachal Pradesh to
11,320 persons in the National Capital Territory
of Delhi. Among the northern Indian States,
Bihar (1106), West Bengal (1028) and and Uttar
Pradesh (829) have higher densities, while
Kerala (860) and Tamil Nadu (555) have higher
densities among the peninsular Indian states.
States like Assam, Gujarat, Andhra Pradesh,
Haryana, Jharkhand, Odisha have moderate
densities. The hill states of the Himalayan region
and North eastern states of India (excluding
Assam) have relatively low densities while the
Union Territories (excluding Andaman and
Nicobar islands) have very high densities of
population (Appendix–iA).
The density of population, as discussed
in the earlier paragraph, is a crude measure
of human and land relationship. To get a better
insight into the human-land ratio in terms of
pressure of population on total cultivable land,
the physiological and the agricultural densities
should be found out which are significant for
a country like India having a large agricultural population]]> 2021-08-19 12:55:05 UTC https://padlet.com/yashdubey0504/qgxtlqz7xq1v4qck/wish/1685958407 kritikaashiwal20200581 https://padlet.com/yashdubey0504/qgxtlqz7xq1v4qck/wish/1686030748 2021-08-19 13:41:58 UTC https://padlet.com/yashdubey0504/qgxtlqz7xq1v4qck/wish/1686030748 kritikaashiwal20200581 https://padlet.com/yashdubey0504/qgxtlqz7xq1v4qck/wish/1686043173 2021-08-19 13:48:43 UTC https://padlet.com/yashdubey0504/qgxtlqz7xq1v4qck/wish/1686043173 kritikaashiwal20200581 https://padlet.com/yashdubey0504/qgxtlqz7xq1v4qck/wish/1686044727 Physiological density = total population /
