INDIA

 

INDIA, one of the oldest civilisations with a kaleidoscopic variety and rich cultural heritage. It ahs achieved multifaceted socio-economic progress during the last 53 years of its independence. India has become self-sufficient in agricultural production and is now the tenth industrialised country in the world and the sixth nation to have gone into outer space to conquer nature for the benefit of the people. It covers an area of 3,287,2631 sq.km., extending from the snow-covered Himalayan heights to the tropical rain forests of the south. As the seventh largest country in the world, India stands apart from the rest of Asia, marked off as it is by mountains and the sea, which give the country a distinct geographical entity. Bounded by the Great Himalayas in the north, it stretches southwards and at the Tropic of Cancer, tapers off into the Indian Ocean between the Bay of Bengal on the east and the Arabian Sea on the west.

 

Lying entirely in the northern hemisphere, the mainland extends between latitudes 8°4’ and 37°6’ north, longitudes 68°7’ and 97°25’ east and measures about 3,214 km from north to south between the extreme latitudes and about 2,933 km from east to west between the extreme longitudes. It has a land frontier of about 15,200 km. The total length of the coastline of the mainland, Lakshadweep Islands and Andaman & Nicobar Islands is 7,516.6 km.

 

The countries having a common border with India are Afghanistan and Pakistan to the north-west, China, Bhutan and Nepal to the north, Myanmar to the east and Bangladesh to the east of West Bengal. Sri Lanka is separated from India by a narrow channel of sea formed by the Palk Strait and the Gulf of Mannar.

 

Rivers in India may be classified as : (i) Himalayan rivers; (ii) Peninsular rivers; (iii) Coastal rivers and (iv) rivers of Inland drainage basins.

 

The climate in India may be broadly described as tropical monsoon type. There are four seasons: (i) Winter (January-February); (ii) Hot-weather Summer (March-May); (iii) Rainy South-Western Monsoon (June-September) and (iv) Post-Monsoon, also known as North-East Monsoon in the Southern Peninsula (October-December). India’s climate is affected by two seasonal winds – the north-east monsoon and the south-west monsoon. The north-east monsoon commonly known as winter monsoon blows from land to sea whereas south-west monsoon known as summer monsoon blows from sea to land after crossing the Indian Ocean, the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal. The south-west monsoon brings most of the rainfall during the year in the country. It is now possible to make forecast about the monsoon rains successfully with developed models and trained manpower.

 

India’s populations, as on 1st March, 1991 stood at 846.30 millions (439.23 million males and 407.07 million females). This includes the projected population of 7.72 million of Jammu & Kashmir. The second most populous country, India is the home of 16 percent of world’s population. The country, however, accounts for 2.42 percent of the total world area.

 

The population in India as recorded at each decenial census from 1901 has grown steadily except for a decrease during 1911-21. Decadel growth of population from 1901 is shown in the table below :
