DEMOGRAPHIC PROFILE OF NARNAUL TOWN

2.1 Historical background

Narnaul is a place of considerable distinguishes. According to some folk legends, it was

found in Pandvas time. At that time it was known as ‘Nandigram’. The Punjab gazetteers of

Philician states describes that it was found some 900 years ago near the Doshi hill in the very heart

of very vast forest called ‘Nahar Haul’ or the Lion’s dread. It is also said that it was founded by

Raja Laun Karan after his wife more called ‘Nar Laun’. It is said that when the town was founded

a Sernam and Mengoose were seen fighting this does not indicate of that time of origin. After Laun

Karan’s time it was controlled by the Muslims rules.

2.1.1 Narnaul under Mughals

Some muslim historian put up their the view that the town was offered by Altmash to his

mate Saif-ud-din Amir Khusro who pointed out in his book ‘Ghurrat-al Kamal’, that it was under

Malik Kultaghtain Azam, Mubark, Amir of Narnaul under Firoz Shah Khilji. Ibrahim Khan who

was the grand father of Sher Shah was granted several villages in the ‘Paragana’ of Narnaul by

Jamal Khan Saranskhami of Hissar, Narnaul was the centre of Abu Maalik, revolt under Akbar

during the break of Mughal dynasty Narnaul became an appendage of Jaipur, 1793-97. This town

was taken by De Boigna in 1793-97 who handed over to Murtaza Khan. Then it was granted to

Maharaja Narender Singh as a reward for valuable services offered by him to the British during the

period of Muting in 1857. He established a grain market in 1858.

2.1.2 Narnaul before and after independence

A battle between the freedom fighter and the Royal English Army was fought near

Nasibpur village 3 km north of Narnaul. Before independence it was under Pepsu, with

independence Patiala, Nabha find Tehsil became Mahendergarh. Mahendergarh was a part of

Punjab at that time. On November 1, 1966 Haryana was separated from Punjab and Mahendergarh

remained one of its seventh districts, Head quarter of district is located at Narnaul.

2.1.3 From ancient period up to 17th century

Narnaul according to the legends the town was founded 900 years ago near the Dhosi hill in

the midst of vast forests. Dhosi is a flat topped hill on was it lies and is known as “Chander Kup”

sacred to Cham Rishi which was the Hindus worship and when the tith Amavashya happens upon

a Friday, the water over at sun rise at which the people bath there.In 1441 Narnaul was held by

Akalim Khan. After that several Muslim rulers like Sher Shah Quali etc ruled over it. In 1472

Satnam is captured it and wiped out old structures of Mughal dominance.

2.1.4 17th to End of 19th century

During this period major development occurred particularly in the later half of the 19 th

monuments as described earlier are the oldest living buildings in Narnaul. Important lanes in

Narnaul before the end of 19th century were Mandi, Adina Masjid Koyathwara, Sarai, Kharkhri

Chanduwara, Franskhana, Mishwra with the Naya and Purana Bazar.

2.1.5 First Half of the 20th century

Before analysis the development of town in the first half of the 20th century we should take

two things into mind. One is that Narnaul has suffered many historical changes which affected

landscape to large extent and secondly the population of the town has been fluctuating 20 to 21

thousand in average up to 1951. Decidedly the settlement pattern was affected by two factors. On

the one hand due to balance in population, people felt no need of development new buildings and

on the other hand if there were any need of additional settlements, they may either the modification

of pervious ones or addition of some buildings in the periphery of old settlement, old building till

predominate in the interior portion of the town and it was difficult to define the age of building.

2.1.6 1950 to present time

It is new constructed area which is developed in recent decades mainly along the roads.

Industrial estate has been developed in plain areas along Nizampur road and Rewari road of the

town. That is why high class residences have been constructed on the Mehendergarh road. At

present a municipal committee is working for the development of the town. The total area within

municipal is 9.67 km2 with 62,077 populations (2001)

2.2 Demographic ProfileNarnaul town is a medium class town and headquarter of district Mahendergarh

located in the southern part of Haryana state (fig. 1.1). More than 57% of district population is

inhabited in Narnaul town. It is a second class town constituting 21 wards spread over an area of

about 9.67 km2 with municipal council as it local governing body.

Figure 2.1

Table 2.2 and figure 2.1 shows the ward wise population distribution with their

households and its sex ratio. The total population of the town is 62,077 in which 33,050 (53.24%)

males and 29,027 (46.76%) female. The maximum number of population 4058 (6.54%) has been

recorded in ward 21. The main reason of the highest population is that it is a residential and newly

constructed ward. In wards 10, 11, 12 and 13 have also much population than the other wards

because these wards are basically belong to scheduled caste population. Another side the wards 16,

17, 18 and 19 have very low population because of main market area of the town. So there are very

small portion of space is available for residential purpose in these wards. People of these wards

have migrated in open residential area of different wards of the town.

2.2.1 Sex Ratio

The sex composition plays a vital role in the population study of characteristics. The sex

composition of the population is affected by the differentials in the mortality condition of male and

female. In India it has generally been adverse to women. The ratio has also declined over the years

except in 1981, when it is slightly improved to 934 from 927. It has been a fall by seven points to

927 per thousand males. But Kerala represented a different spectrum. The state has higher number

of female than males i.e. 1036 females per thousand males.

Demographic measure of sex distribution or balance of sexes in a population is different

from one country to another. In the country like U.S.A., the sex ratio is expressed in terms of

number of males per 100 females and it is calculated as under:-

SR = Pm/Pf x 100

In the other countries, the sex ratio is generally calculated in terms of the number of

females per 100 males that can be expressed under:

SR = Pp/Pm x 100

But in India sex ratio is defined as the number of females per 1000 males and represented

as below

SR = Pf/Pm x 1000

or

SR = Pm/Pf x 1000

Here is

SR = Sex ratio

Pm = Per male

Pf = Per female

Table 2.2 and figure 2.2 shows the sex ratio of the town in 2001. The overall sex ratio of

the town is 878 which are more than the state’s sex ratio 861. These are three categories at ward

level. The highest sex ratio which is more than 920 has been recorded in three wards i.e. 10, 18,

19. The main reason of high sex ratio is that ward 10 belongs to Schedule Caste population while

18, 19 wards have better educational status. The lowest sex ratio of the town is less than 840,

which has only two wards 4 and 20. But wards 1, 2, 3, 6, 8, 9, 16, 17 and 21 have more than 880

and the main reason of good sex ratio is better educational status.

Figure 2.2 presents the sex ratio of the town at ward level (2001). It can be divided into the

three categories of sex ratio i.e. (i) low (< 850 female per thousand male) (ii) Medium (850-900

female per thousand male) and (iii) high (> 900 female per thousand male). The lowest (<850) sex

ratio is recorded in the wards 4, 5 and 20. The main reason of the lowest sex ratio is due to less

population and less houses. This region may be characterized as very congested, polluted and have

less facility; hence they shifted to other open residential wards. The second category i.e. medium

sex ratio (850-900) has been found in wards 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 15, 17 and 21. These

wards have good infrastructure facilities and residential quarters.

The third categories i.e. the high sex ratio (>900) has been recorded in the wards 9,

In which wards 18 and 19 have much more sex ratio than other wards. The main reason is that

these wards are located in the central part or market area of the town. They have good educational

and basic infrastructure and facilities while in the case of wards 9 and 14 they have also good

number of educational institutes and health facilities.

2.2.2 Growth Rate

Growth rate of any town will be represented the population of the any place will be increased

or decreased of within 10 years. When the population of any town increases within ten year, it may

be positive and when it is decreasing then it may be negative growth of the town or village.

Growth rate of population is representing the changes of population in two points of time which

represents in per centage as follows:

g = 100P

PP

2

12

Here is:

P1 = Population of base year

P2 = Population of current year

g = growth rate

Table 2.3 and figure 2.3 and show the decadal growth rate of the town at ward level. It can be

divided into three categories i.e. (i) low growth rate (<10 %) (2) medium growth rate (10-20%) and

(3) growth rate (>20%) has been recorded in 1, 2, 5, 7, 12, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 wards. The main

reason of the lowest growth rate category i.e. low growth rate (<10%) of population is existence of

main market area in the ward 15, 17, 18 and 19. So these wards become congested. Hence the

people shifted in open residential wards like 11 and 12. Ward 1 developed as a sector area; 2 as

officer's colony; 5, 7 and 12 as administrative area. The second category i.e. medium growth rate

of the town (10-20 %) has been recorded in wards 3, 5, 9. The third category i.e. the highest

growth rate (> 20 %) is recorded in the wards 4, 6, 8, 10, 11, 13. In which ward 8 have the highest

growth rate (46.35%) of population. The main reason of the highest growth rate of population is

due to residential characteristic. While in the remaining ward 4, 10, 11 and 13 are dominated by

the Scheduled Caste population which have high growth rate of population, poor educational

facilities, health and other infrastructure. The existence of wards 20 and 21 was created after 1991.

So data can not be applicable. Table 2.3 shows that during one decade (1991 to 2001), the growth

rate of the population of the town was positive (+19.43%).

Table 2.4 and figure 2.4 show the 0-6 age group proportion of the children in the town.

This table also represents the sex ratio of 0-6 age group of children in different wards. The

maximum number of children in age group 0-6 is in wards 1, 4, 6, 8, 10, 21 which are more than

500. The main reason of highest proportion of sex ratio is residential character. Because people

comes from the congested wards and near by village, so children population has been increased.

It also shows the structure of the male and female children of 0-6 age group. The highest number

of male and female child is recorded in ward 10 and the lowest; number of male child of this age

group is recorded in the ward 17 and female in the ward 15.

Table 2.4 and figure 2.5 also represent the sex ratio of the children of 0-6 age group in the

town at ward level. The highest sex ratio (903) of the town is in ward number 11. It shows very

good condition but another ward has less than 900. The very low sex ratio (595) is recorded in

ward number 15. Table 2.4 and figure 2.4 also show the male and female children of 0-6 age group

of the town at ward level. The highest number of the children of this age group has been recorded

in ward 10. The main reason is that, this ward is belongs to Scheduled Caste population where total

population is also more then other wards. The educational status and economic condition is also

poor. The lowest number of children of 0-6 age group has also been recorded in the ward 17. The

main reason of lowest number of children of this group age group is that, this ward is basically

main market of the town. So the proportion of total population is also lowest than other

proportion is 12.26% in ward 17.

Figure 2.5 shows the sex ratio of the children of 0-6 age group of the town. The lowest sex

ratio (< 750) has been recorded in wards 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 15. The main reason of lowest 0-6 age group

sex ratio is low education status and poor residential facilities in wards 3 and 4 the remaining

wards 6, 9 wards have very small area. Due to congestion of population, people shifted in open

residential part. Most of the wards of the town's have medium sex ratio (740-850) in wards 1, 5, 7,

10, 12, 16, 17, 19, 20 and 21. But wards 8, 11, 13, 14 and 18 have highest sex ratio (>850) except

18 due to residential area and better infrastructure facilities. The ward 18 is dominated by market

and good number of educational facilities.

Table 2.5 and figure 2.6 shows the distribution of scheduled caste population at ward level of

the town. There are 12.78% of SC populations from the total population of town. Out of which the

highest proportion of SC population 46.23% inhabited in the ward 10 followed by 25.70% and

28.21% in ward 7 and 9 respectively. The remaining wards have below 15% scheduled caste

population of there total population in wards 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 20, 21.

The very low proportion of this caste 0.78% is recorded in the ward 2 where high proportion of the

high society and the first class officers lived. It also shows the ward wise distribution of male and

female structure of SC population. The highest male and female SC recorded in ward 10 because

this ward has highest proportion of SC population. The lowest male (0.24%) of SC population has

ward 2 and female (0.19%) has ward 17.

Table 2.5 and figure 2.6 show the proportion of SC population in the town at ward level

(2001). There are (<10 %) population lived in the wards 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 12, 13, 17 and 18. These

wards basically belong to general and OBC categories except 17 and 18 wards which have main

market of the town so the residential proportion is very small which belongs to general category.

Those wards which have medium (10-20 %) proportion of SC population are resided in wards 4, 8,

11, 14, 15, 16, 21 and 9. Ward 19 have 20-30 % SC population, while ward 10 has maximum

proportion of Scheduled Caste population (>30%) of total SC population. So ward 10 has

dominancy of total Scheduled Caste population of the town

2.2.3 Literacy

Bhattacharya (1974) defines illiterate as “A person who can neither read nor write or can

merely read but cannot write in any language.” While in some countries the efficiency of reading,

writing and counting has been considered as a criterion on literacy. According to census of India

(2001) “a person who can both read and write with understanding in any language is taken as

literate.” But it is not necessary that a person who is literate should have received any formal

education or should have passed any minimum educational standard. In Indian context, it is

essential for getting education that children must be above 5 years of age. So the boys and girls of

0-5 group can't be considered as literate.

We are living in the age of knowledge and science. One of the modern vehicles this

knowledge can be acquired and stored is the intimate relationship with the advancement of human

history (Bhattacharyya, 1974). Beside, education determines the structure of household and

relationship with family and equally important for the vertical and horizontal mobility of man.

Literacy is essential for eradicating poverty and mental isolation, for cultivating peaceful and

friendly relations and for permitting the free play of demographic process. Above all mortality,

marriage age, migration, occupation and economic patterns are also influenced by literacy.

Figure 2.8

Table 2.6 and figure 2.8 represent the educational status of the town in 2001. The lowest

literacy rate is (<60) in the ward 10. The main reason is that this ward belongs to scheduled cast

population who has not good economic condition and poor infrastructure facilities. Those wards

who have (60-65%) of literacy rate are 1, 6, 7, 8 and 13. They have also literacy then other wards

the main reason is lack of infrastructure facilities in wards 2, 3, 4, 11, 12, 18, 19 have (>65%)

literacy rate. Reaming wards 9,14,15,16,17,18,19 and 21 have above 70 per cent literacy rate. The

main reason of good literacy is that these wards are old, well developed and center part basically

main market of the town. Ward 14 has highest 79.25 per cent. The main reason of good literacy in

this ward is that most of the educational institute of the town is situated in this ward. Table 2.6 and

figure 2.8 also shows the male female literacy rate at ward level. The highest male literacy rate

have ward 15 which is 96.69 per cent while ward 1 have lowest male literacy rate 67.34 per cent.

The highest female literacy rate have ward 17 which is 83.30% and lowest female literacy rate

49.90 per cent have ward 10.

Table 2.6 is also displaying the literacy rate of the town. It shows there is 78.85 per cent

literate (including 88.8 % male and 67 % female). But when we study about literacy at ward level

we found that ward 17 has the highest literacy rate (including 95.83 % male and 83.80 % females).

The main reason of lowest literates in this ward is that this ward is belonging to scheduled caste

population.

Literacy Rate inPercentage

The lowest literacy rate is 65.74 per cent in which 79.84 per cent males and 50 per cent females are

literates in the ward number 10. The main reason of lowest literacy rate in this ward is that

maximum Scheduled Caste peoples lived here. They could not get good education because of lack

of economic facilities. Figure 2.9 show the literacy rate of the town, 2001. The status of literacy

rate in the town is divided into three categories. The first category i.e. lowest literacy rate (< 65%)

has recorded in wards 1, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13 and20. The main reason of lowest literacy rate except

wards 1, 7 and 20 are dominated by Scheduled Caste population. The second category i.e. medium

literacy rate (60-70%) has been recorded in wards 1, 7 and 20 have very small area where more

population lived, in wards viz. 2, 4, 5 and 21. The third category i.e. the highest literacy rate

(>70%) are found in the wards 3, 9, 14, 15, 17, 18, 19. The main reason is that all educational

institutes are located in the ward 14. It is followed by wards 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, which have also

high literacy rate. The main reason is these are in old part of the town and main market area of the

town. So these wards have good educational status.

2.2.4 Occupational Structure of the Town

Any economically productive activity for livelihood is called occupation. Occupational

structure of a population reveals her economic characteristics. Thus it is a clear indication of

economy and economic development of a nation or a society. Among the various attributes of

population the livelihood pattern of the people is significant showing man land relationship in the

area. The composition of working force of an area varies by sex, age and residence (Chandna,

1998).

According to 1991 census of India a worker is defined as “a person whose main activity is

participation in any economically productive activity.” Such participation may be physical or

mental in nature work involved not only actual work but also effective supervision and direction of

work. One should have worked at least 183 days in one or more than one activity for classifying as

a worker. Census hand book of Haryana, 1991 classified workers into nine industrial categories:

1. Cultivator

2. Agricultural labour

3. Live stock, forestry, fishing, hunting and plantation, orchards and allied activities.

4. Mining and quarrying

Figure 2.10

Table 2.7 and figure 2.10 represents the status of working and non-working population of

the town during 2001. Out of total population of the town only 30.82 per cent is working

population while 69.18 per cent population is non-working, which shows that the ratio of working

and non- working population is one third. Table 2.7 shows that ward 12 has the highest working

population in their total population. Wards 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 11, 13, 15, 16, and18 have also more

than 30 per cent of their total population. Remaining ward has below 30 per cent of working

population in their total population i.e. wards 2, 6, 7, 8, 9, 14, 17, 19, 20 and 21. The lowest

working population is recorded in the ward 7. The main reason of lowest working population is

poor the education status is poor.

Figure 2.11 shows the ward wise distribution of total working population (main +

marginal) of the town in 2001. The lowest (<900) workers found in the wards 2, 5, 7, 9, 14, 15, 16,

17, 18, 19 and 20. The main reason of lowest working population in these wards is they have less

total population than the other wards. The medium total working population (900-1000) workers

has recorded in wards 3, 6 and 11.

the remaining 86.24 per cent working population is employed other activities like trade, 2001

commerce, transport and tertiary activities. Figure 2.13 shows the categories wise distribution of

total working population at ward level.

Figure 2.13(a) shows the ward wise distribution of cultivator workers in the town. The

lowest cultivator (<50) have been recorded in the wards 2, 3, 7, 8, 9, 10, 14, 15, 16, 17 and 19. The

main reason is that most of the workers are engaged in secondary or tertiary activities because of

the better educational status. The medium (50-100) main cultivator workers are recorded in the

wards 1, 4, 6, 18 and 21 of the town. The remaining wards i.e. 5, 11, 12, 13 and 20 have the

highest (>100) cultivator workers have the main reason of the highest cultivators is that these

wards have very poor educational status wards 5, 11, and 20.

Figure 2.13 (b) shows the distribution of agricultural workers of the town. The lowest (<30)

agricultural workers found in the wards 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 and 21.

The main reason of lowest agricultural working population in these wards is that most of them

engaged in secondary or tertiary activities. The medium category (30-60) agricultural workers

found in the ward 4 and 10. The highest (>60) agricultural workers belong to wards 12 and 13. The

main reason of highest worker in these wards is that both wards are situated in the outer part of the

town and nearer to the agricultural area.

Figure 2.13 (c) shows the distribution of total worker who engaged in household

industries. The lowest worker (<40) belongs to the wards1, 4, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, 14, 15, 17, 18 and 19.

The main reason of fewer workers in these wards is that most of them are engaged in other

activities. The medium category of the workers (40-80) of house holds industries belong to wards

to wards 5, 6, 13, 16, 20 and 21. The highest category of worker engaged in households industries

(>80) belong 2, 3 and 10. The main reason is to be more total population than the other wards.

Figure 2.13 (d) shows the distribution of total working population which engaged in other

activities. The lowest workers (<700) of total working population engaged in other activities

belong to the wards 2, 7, 9, 13, 14, 17, 19 and 20. The main reason is that most of these wards have

less total population than other wards. The medium (700-800) workers of other activities have

recorded in the wards 3, 5, 11, 15 and 18 followed by the

highest workers (>800) of other activities in the wards 8, 10, 16 and 21 because of good

educational status than other wards. The main working population has unevenly distributed at ward

level. For example wards 1, 4, and 21 have more than 1000 main workers. The main reason is that

these wards have more population as well as good educational status is also good than that of the

other wards while, ward 18 has less female 43 (2.38%) main worker than other wards. The male

working population of main workers is also highest in ward 1 which has 1109 (6.77%) workers

and the lowest 530 (3.24%) in ward 19. Another side very few female 43 (2.38%) of main

working population is recorded in the ward 14.

Figure 2.14

Table 2.9 shows the distribution of marginal workers at ward level. Out of the 21 wards,

ward 12 has the highest 287 (10.40%) marginal workers and ward 14 has the lowest 17 (.6%)

marginal workers. Ward 11 has maximum male marginal 151 (12.75%) workers and 17 have

lowest 9 (.76%) marginal male workers. Ward 12 has maximum number of female 272 (17.26%)

marginal workers and 14 have lowest female 8 (.51%) marginal workers.

There are 30.82 per cent working population (main + marginal) of the total population, who are

working in different categories like cultivated, agriculture, household industries and other field.

Out of which the total working population 85.57 per cent people are main worker while only 14.43

per cent are marginal worker which reveals the same picture in figure 2.14. Table 2.9 shows,

16,373 total main + marginal workers. Out of which 14,565 males (88.96%), and 1808 (11.04%)

female, who are engaged in different activities,

Fig. 2.15 (a) shows the main working population of the town. The lowest main working

population (<700) have wards 7, 9, 15, 18, 19 and 20.The main reason is that wards 15, 18, 19 and

20 have main market area hence these are less population in the less residential hence in this part.

This is followed by medium (700-800) main workers in the wards 2, 11 and 16. The highest main

workers (>800) belong to the wards 1, 3, 4, 5, 8, 10, 12, 13 and 21.The main reason of the highest

main workers is that the total population is also more than other wards.

Figure 2.15(b) shows the marginal working population of the town. The lowest working

population (<100) are belongs to wards 2, 5, 7, 9, 14, 16, 17, 19, 20 and 21 because most of the

wards have main working population than the marginal working population. Wards 1, 3, 6, 10, 11

and 15 have medium (100-200) marginal employees. The highest (>200) marginal employees

belong to the wards 4, 8, 13 and 18. The main reason is that total population of these wards is also

more than other wards

is found in only one ward 18. The highest (>60) marginal cultivators are recorded in the wards 12

and 13. The main reason is that both wards are situated in the outer part of the town or nearer to

the agricultural land.

Figure 2.19 (b) shows the distribution of agricultural marginal workers of the town. The

lowest (<20) agricultural workers recorded in the wards 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, 14, 15, 16,

17, 18, 19, 20 and 21. The main reason is that most of the wards have more main working

population than that of the marginal workers. The medium workers (20-40) have recorded in the

wards 4 and 6. The highest (>40) marginal workers are engaged in agricultural worker is recorded

in only in the ward 12 because educational status is poor and situated near agricultural land.

Figure 2.19 (c) shows the distribution of marginal employees who are engaged in

household industries. The lowest employees of this category (<10) is recorded in the wards 1, 4, 7,

8, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 17, 18, 19 and 21. The main reason is that most of these wards have highest

employees as main working population. The medium (10-20) employees of this category are

recorded in the wards 2, 3, 6, 9 and 20. The highest (>20) employee of this category is recorded in

the wards 5, 10 and 16 due to more total population than that of the other wards.

Figure 2.19 (d) shows the distribution of marginal employees which engaged in other

activities. The lowest (<50) employees of this category is inhabited in the wards 2, 9, 14, 17, 20

and 21. The main reason is that most of them are engaged in household industries. The medium

(50-100) employees of the category is founding the wards 3, 5, 6, 7, 12, 13, 16 and 19 followed by

The highest (>100) employees lived in the wards 1, 4, 8, 10, 11, 15 and 18 due to total population

is high than that of the other wards.

Thus it has been noted that very small portion of working population is engaged as

cultivator, agricultural worker and household industries. Maximum 70 per cent working population

of the town is employed in other sectors like construction, trade and transport, commerce, storage,

communication and other services.
