Volume : I, Issue : II, March - 2011 Study Of Population And Some Resources In The Drought Prone Region Of Maharashtra K. H. Shinde and Namdeo S. Adnaik DOI : 10.9780/22307850, Published By : Laxmi Book Publication Abstract : Population also plays an important role in
modern economic development. It is the most
potent resource which can alter the entire face of
the country, if utilised prudently. Not only it
provides trained and skilled man-power for
economic reconstruction but like other natural
resources it can be exported to earn regular
income and meet financial crisis. But an illiterate
and unskilled population full of ethnic and
linguistic diversities poses a number of problems
whose solutions are always difficult to find out.
Fast growing population accompanied with
maladies of overpopulation not only disturbs the
peace and tranquility of the region or country to
which it belongs but may pose serious threat to
even the survival of the mankind. That is why
population planning and human resource
development have become the major topics of
debate in today's world, particularly in developing
countries like India. (Tiwari, R.C. 2005).With its
total population of 1027.01 millions (in 2001),
which is 16.7 per cent of the world's total
population, India is the second largest country of
the world after china. Keywords : Article : Cite This Article : K. H. Shinde and Namdeo S. Adnaik, (2011). Study Of Population And Some Resources In The Drought Prone Region Of Maharashtra.
