POPULATION SIZE AND GROWTH RATE

2 POPULATION SIZE AND GROWTH RATE 2.1 POPULATION SIZE Population enumeration is an essential pre requirement for policy formulation and its implementation. Provisional population is arrived at by adding the population as reported by each enumerator in the enumerator abstract for the block assigned to her/him. The final population is released after the scanning of census schedules, data capture by using ICR technology and once the processing is completed. The country has witnessed a population growth from 1028.7 million in 2001 to 1210.2 million in 2011. From 2001 to 2011 the increase in rural population is 90.5 million while for the urban population it is 91.0 million. In 2011, Uttar Pradesh has recorded the highest rural population at 155,111,022 while the lowest rural population is seen in Lakshadweep at 14,121. The urban population figures indicate that Maharashtra has the maximum urban population at 50,827,531 while the minimum is seen in Lakshadweep at 50,308. The data for Madhya Pradesh shows an increase in total population from 60.3 million in 2001 to 72.6 million in 2011; where the increase in rural population stands at 8.2 million which is more than double the increase recorded for the urban population which is 4.1 million. In rural areas of the state, the male population is 27,142,409 while the female population is recorded as 25,395,490. The urban population of the state can be segregated into male population of 10,470,511 and female population of 9,589,155. This chapter shows the population figures reported from the rural and urban areas of the state and analyses the trends of growth rate in the rural-urban classification. This chapter mainly focuses on the rural-urban distribution of district and tahsil level data recorded for the state apart from the comparison of the state in relation to national data, neighbouring states and the Empowered Action Group (EAG) states.

2.1.1 India and Madhya Pradesh As per the provisional population totals 2011, India has recorded a total population of 1,210.2 million which comprises of a rural population of 833.1 million (68.84% of the total population) and an urban population of 377.1 million (31.16% of the total population). In case of Madhya Pradesh, out of the total state population of 72.6 million the rural population stands at 52.5 million (72.31% of the total population) while urban population is 20.1 million (27.69% of the total population). At the national level, in terms of proportion of urban population there has been an upward trend from 27.81 percent in Census 2001 to 31.16 percent in Census 2011. A similar trend is observed in Madhya Pradesh with an increase from 26.53 percent to 27.69 percent from Census 2001 to 2011. The proportion of rural population has declined from 72.19 percent in 2001 to 68.84 percent in 2011 for the country while Madhya Pradesh observed a lower decline in rural population from 73.47 percent to 72.31 percent across the two Census rounds of 2001 and 2011 respectively as shown in Statement 2.1.

PROVISIONAL POPULATION TOTALS 13

2.1.2 Decennial population of Madhya Pradesh The decennial population trend for the state can be studied from Statement 2.5 and Figure 2.1. There has been an increase from 12,679,214 persons in 1901 to 72,597,565 persons in 2011; accounting for a growth of nearly 472.5 percent in eleven decades. The rural areas recorded a population growth from 11,349,769 in 1901 to 52,537,899 in 2011; while the urban areas witnessed a growth from 1,329,445 in 1901 to 20,059,666 in 2011. The population growth rate in the urban areas is much higher than that observed in the rural areas. Since the population size for males and females was unavailable for the rural areas in 1901, hence the population pattern for both these categories can be studied from 1911 to 2011. The male population in rural India has grown from 6,629,383 in 1911 to 27,142,409 in 2011 and in urban India the male population witnessed an increase from 616,021 in 1911 to 10,470,511 in 2011. For female population in rural areas, there has been an increase from 6,447,709 in 1911 to 25,395,490 in 2011 while the increase in urban areas is from 556,269 in 1911 to 9,589,155 in 2011.

PROVISIONAL POPULATION TOTALS 49

2.7 GROWTH RATE Population growth rate is the average change in population as a result of the surplus of births over the deaths in addition to the net migration in the country in a specified period of time. This population growth rate is determined over a decade where the current growth rate figures imply the change in population in the period 2001-11. The decadal growth rate of the country is 17.6 percent where the rural growth rate is 12.2 percent while in the urban areas it is 31.8 percent. For Madhya Pradesh, the total growth rate is 20.3 percent while the rural growth rate is pegged at 18.4 percent and the urban growth is reported as 25.6 percent. A higher urban growth rate is indicative of an increasing trend in urbanisation and an upward swing in migration. The chapter gives a detailed account of the rural and urban growth rates recorded at various levels in the state going upto the tahsil level. In addition, the growth rate of the state is compared to the national level and to that registered by the other Empowered Action Group States (EAG) and neighbouring states as well.

2.7.1 Growth rate of India : 2011 In Census 2011, India has registered a decadal growth of 17.6 percent. For rural areas the growth rate is 12.2 percent whereas for urban areas it stands at 31.8 percent. This clearly indicates a growing tendency of urbanisation during the last decade. The growth rate for all the States/UTs in terms of rural and urban areas has been shown in the Statement 2.71 below.

2.10 DECENNIAL GROWTH RATE OF RURAL AND URBAN POPULATION IN MADHYA PRADESH The trend of growth rate in Madhya Pradesh has been tabulated since Census 1901. Since 1911, both the total and rural growth rates have shown a haphazard trend in which either both have increased or decreased, thus leaving little scope to draw any concrete inference. However the urban growth rate has shown an upward movement during the period 1921 to 1981. It is only since 1991 that the urban growth rate has started declining thus confirming with the trend PROVISIONAL POPULATION TOTALS 51

of decline in population growth rate as shown in Statement 2.74 and Figure 2.31. The decline in percentage points during the decade 1981-91 and 1991-01 for urban areas was 9.0 and 13.8 respectively and during 2001-11 this figure stands at 4.5 percent.

2.11 GROWTH RATE : MADHYA PRADESH AND ITS DISTRICTS In this chapter it is evident that the growth rate in the decade 2001-11, as compared to that reported for the previous decade ranging 1991-01, has shown a large variation for the divisions in the states. While analysing the district-wise data at divisional level the growth rate for 2001-11 indicates that a significant contribution to the state’s population was made by Indore division followed by Bhopal, Gwalior, Ujjain and Jabalpur as shown in Statement 2.75. The rural decennial growth rate, for 1991-01 and 2001-11, registered in all the districts of the state can be studied from Statement 2.75. The rural growth rate figures reported by the state is seen to follow a decreasing trend in 1991-01 and 2001-11 which stands at 22.3 percent and 18.4 percent respectively. The rural growth rate for 2011 shows that Jhabua has recorded the highest growth rate at 31.7 percent followed by Singrauli in second place reporting a growth rate of 30.7 percent while the districts where the lowest growth rate is observed are Mandsaur at 10.3 percent and Narsimhapur where the growth rate is pegged at 10.4 percent. It is interesting to note that only Barwani and Sheopur have retained their respective 3rd and 7th rank in Census 2011 as compared to 2001, while Jhabua which was at 36th place during Census 2001 has jumped to the top most position in 2011. The urban decennial growth rate recorded in 1991-01 and 2001-11 for all the districts is shown in Statement 2.76. The urban growth rate reported by the state for 1991-01 was seen to be 30.1 percent whereas an increase is observed in 2001-11 with the current growth rate pegged at 25.6 percent. For 2001-11 the districts registering the maximum growth rate are Raisen which is in first position at 46.8 percent followed by Dhar in second place recording a growth rate of 43.4 percent whereas the bottom two districts include Anuppur at 5.1 percent and Burhanpur reporting 6.9 percent. However the top two districts for 1991-01 were seen as Singrauli registering an urban growth of 219.4 percent and Sidhi at 139.9 percent while the districts which recorded the lowest growth were Katni at 14.1 percent and Burhanpur at 12.2 percent. A comparison of the ranking of the districts, in terms of the decennial urban growth rate, shows that the ranks have changed for all the districts and it is very interesting to note that Singrauli which topped the table in Census 2001 has fallen drastically to 40th position in Census 2011. 52
