  • Title: Growth of rural population: a case study of Patiala district, Punjab.
    Author: Waraich BS.
    Journal: Popul Geogr; 1991; 13(1-2):53-62. PubMed ID: 12179045.
    Abstract:
    "Based on the census data, the present paper focuses on patterns of rural population growth in the Patiala district [India] during 1951-81. The striking spatial variations in growth rate were associated largely with migration differentials in the study area. Similarly, there were wide differentials in the population growth rates between scheduled castes and non-scheduled castes and among different religious communities. The proportion of different castes and communities to the total population changed due to their uneven growth rates."
