Population Distribution and Population Density pattern in Bara Tehsil of Prayagraj District: A Geographical Study

There are 2 development blocks, 19 Nyaya Panchayats and 1 urban area Shankargarh in Bara tehsil of Prayagraj district. Due to various social, economic and physical factors, spatial disparity is seen in population distribution and population density in the study area Bara tehsil. Due to this reason, spatial disparity is also seen in population distribution and population density at Nyaya Panchayat level in the tehsil. The main objective of this research paper is to analyze the spatial distribution pattern of population distribution and population density at Nyaya Panchayat level for the projected year 2021 in the tehsil. The presented research paper is based on secondary data, which has been obtained from the Census Handbook of Prayagraj district for the year 2001 and 2011. With the help of demographic data of the year 2001 and 2011, the projected population density and population distribution for the year 2021 has been estimated. Arithmetic method has been used for population projection. According to this study, the highest population distribution for the projected year 2021 in the study area Bara tehsil is in Nyay Panchayat Jasra while the lowest is in Sidhikar Nyay Panchayat. In the study area Bara tehsil, the highest population density is in the urban area Shankargarh, while at the Nyay Panchayat level, the highest is in Jasra and the lowest is in Sidhtikar Nyay Panchayat.
