In 2011, the sex ratio was 943

Explanation: Sex ratio is called the ratio between no of girls per 1000 males, in India, there are 934 females per 1000 which is less, it is due to female foeticide and patriarchy society who prefers male children's over female.

The average number of children who die below one year of age for every 1000 live births is called Infant Mortality Rate

Explanation: the Death rate of children below 1 year per 1000 birth is called the Infant mortality rate. The infant mortality rate was 42 in 2012, means out of 1000 new-born, 42 die within a year, it is due to unavailability of proper medical facility, malnutrition or another factor. Due to government efforts and infant mortality rate came down from 80 in 1990 to 42 in 2012.

In India, since the birth rate is high, and the death rate is Low the population growth rate is high.

Explanation : Birth rate means number of children born per 1000 person and death rate means number of people die per 1000 person, as per the last census, India birth rate is 22 and death rate is 6 so every year 22 people are born and 6 people die every year so net 18 people are added per 1000 person per year, which is a high number compared to developed nation and population increases.

People between the age group of 15 to 60 who are capable and have knowledge skill and ability to work are called the working population

Explanation: people in the age group of 15 to 60, capable of working and have knowledge and skills work in the job in various field like agriculture, manufacturing, health care and contribute in the economy are called working population.

Educated and healthy working population is called Human resources

Explanation: Educated healthy and trained people contribute more, they are more efficient and national income increases due to this and that's why they are called Human resources

As per 2011 census, India's population was 121.1crore in 2011,

Explanation: India is the second most populated country in the world, China is at number one. The population growth rate of India is 1.8 per cent per year, which is higher and with this growth, India will be the most populated country by the year 2022.

Birth rate means the number of kids is born per 1000 person every year.

Explanation: Birth rate means how many kids are born per 1000 people in a year. As per last census 2011, the birth rate of India was 22 which means that 22 kids are born in every 1000 person and population become 1022. Out 6 people of out of 1000 also die every year, so the net population increase to 1018 from 1000 every year.

The Population growth rate of India is 1.8% per cent per annum

Explanation: With the birth rate of 22 means that every year 22 people per 1000 added and with the death rate of 6 means that every 6 people out of 1000 dies, so net every year 22-6 =18 people are added per 1000 person. Growth rate will be (18/1000) x 100 = 1.8 percent per annum.

The population density as per census 2011 was 382 person per square kilometre,

Explanation: Population density is how many numbers of people are living in per kilometre square area. The higher the population per square kilometre, the higher the population density. With increasing, density people have fewer natural resources available, like people will cut the tree and use the land for making home and other building, which will reduce land for farming.

Population density is referred to the number of people living in an area, it is usually measured in no of people living in per kilometre square area. Population density is measured for a specific area, like population density can be calculated for a country, for a state, for a city or village, it is done by dividing the population of that area by area in square kilometre. Population density of large cities like Delhi, Bangalore is higher than the population density of villages or a small town, as in big cities more number of people are living in per square kilometre number than the population density of villages. Population density of India is 382, which means that 382 number of people are living in per kilometre square area.

Human resources are very important for the production of good and services and they occupy greater importance than natural resources and material resources, human resources provide skills and labour which is required for the conversion of raw material to final product. For example, steel, steel is made by iron, which is a natural resource as it is mined from the earth, after mining the rocks which have iron, it is crushed by humans and machinery, heated at a very high temperature and then after many processes, it is converted into steel which is used for our home and other infrastructure building, without involvement of human resources, natural resource can't be used by us and that why they have very greater importance. Human resources are the people in the age group of 15 to 60 who are willing to work, have knowledge, skill and ability and educated and healthy

The healthy and educated working population is considered as human resources, as working capability of healthy, educated and trained people contribute more in economic development than the unskilled people.

Education helps in developing skills and knowledge which helps in developing technologies and process which increases the efficiency similarly healthy population contribute more, for example earlier bullock was used for tilling soil in field, now educated engineers have developed tractors which can do the same work much faster, and saved labour can be used in other activities where technologies not available, educated and healthy population which is called human resource boost the economy growth at faster rate.

The economy of the country moves from underdeveloped to developing to a developed nation. During the underdevelopment phase due to high illiteracy rate and poor medical facilities, death and birth rate both are high so population growth rate is low, but during the development phase, the government spend money on better health facilities to provide better care to pregnant woman, better facilities for old people and newborn, due to which death rate falls down. Maternal mortality rate declined from 398 in 1997-98 to 167 in 2012, birth rate also fall down but relatively at very less rate so overall due to less death rate and still high birth rate, population growth rate is high during the developing phase. Countries which are in developing phase are called developing countries. When a country become a developed nation, due to good literacy rate, birth also comes down and then overall population growth rate reduces.

The quality of the population depends on the number of children born and their health. Healthy children are very important for the nation as they are the future of the nation and they will contribute to the social and economic development of the country. Children are likely to be healthy when their mothers are healthy, so the government took the measures to ensure the good health of mothers and children under different programme and scheme. These measures are mentioned below

 Provision of health facilities – under the national health mission primary health centre, district hospitals are strengthened to provide medical care

 Institutional deliveries through jajani surakha yojana

 Management of malnutrition by providing health supplements to both mother and children to reduce the malnutrition to ensure better health of children.

 Health and nutrition education to promote the habit of a healthy and diversified diet.

This survey was conducted in Mal Bamori village of Mangrol taluka of Baran district of Rajasthan.

During the survey household data was collected on different parameters and information was collected

The total population of this village is 2093 out of them 1093 are male and 1000 are female. The total number of literate people are 1221, out of the 772 are male and 449 are female and the total number of illiterate people is 872, out of the 321 are male and 551 are female.

Based on the above-mentioned information gender ratio can be calculated, as we know that the gender ratio is the number of females per 1000 male, which can be calculated by below mentioned the formula

Gender ratio:

Gender ratio = = 914.91,

in round figure it is 915, so the gender ratio of this village is 915 females per 1000 male.

Similarly, the literacy rate in the village is the ratio of literate people to total people per 100

Literacy rate = (1221/2093) x 100 = 58.33 percent
