INTRODUCTION: India comes next only to China as regards the size of its
population but is seventh in this world as regards the size of
its area.
Thus, on 2.4 percent of world's area with 1.8 percent of world
income, India is maintaining 18 percent of world's population.
It clearly indicates that there is excessive burden of
population in India.

Two main causes of rise in urban
population in India are : Migration Effect: Rural life in India suffers from many
difficulties, such as, less opportunities of employment, low level ofincome, lack of educational and training facilities, lack of healthand medical
facilities, etc. In order to get rid of these difficulties rural-peoplemigrate to urban areas.
Attraction Effect: Urban living has its own attraction, such aseducational, medical and health facilities, jobopportunities, development of railways, recreationcentres, restaurants and park, etc.
Rural people are very much tempted by these allurements anddecide to settle in towns and cities.
According to a report by National Sample Survey, main causeof rural-male to migrate to urban areas is employment andrural-female is wedding ties.

Age Structure/Composition :Age structure of the population of a country indicates the
extent to which the population of that country is useful
from the economic point of view.
Population in the age group of 15-60 years is known as
working population.
Population in the age group of 0-14 years and above 60
years is known as non-working/dependent population.
Higher proportion of working population is beneficialfor the economic development of the nation.

Following inferences can be drawn regarding
occupational distribution of population in India:Agriculture is Main occupation
Less Development of industries
Indian economy is highly unbalancedLess income
Small villages
Backward agriculture
Increase in the proportion of agricultural labourers
No special change in occupational distribution
Less development of tertiary activities

Suggestions regarding occupational structure:
With regard to occupational structure of India, the policy of
the government has been to develop rapidly small and
cottage industries, transport, banking, trade, etc.
Prof. Wadia and Merchant have suggested that small and
medium sized industries should be developed in the country.
Dr. Rangnekar have suggested that the lobourers instead of
rushing to manufacturing industries should join service
sector i.e. transport, petrol pump, hotel, etc.
India should lay more stress on the development of labour
intensive technology to effect change in occupational
structure for the good of the economy.
