    CHAPTER I

    INTRODUCTION TO THE TOPIC

    11/64

    POPULATION

    Population has always tendency of growing but as long as is with

    in the limit of acceptability and management, it is very welcome.

    However in India as we all knows, the growth of population is all out of

    proportions to its other achievements.

    India is most thickly populated country of the world second only to

    China. The population growth is left unchecked will automatically; allow

    absolutely impact on the development of the country in any other sphere.

    No matter how many and how vast our developments programs may be,

    this disproportionate growth of population will nullify it all for instance,

    if a home big enough for four people to live in very comfortably and the

    population rises to size. When the home is big enough for six the

    population becomes eight and hence goes on and on. This would

    obviously mean that, new can there be entire comfort as when are

    increased. Population can take advantage also increases- thus the position

    remains the same. The net result f this sort of a situation would never be

    any sufficient, no matter how much we may achieve.

    The Laymans solution to this problem is to enlighten the village

    folk to the reality and acknowledges of having a small family and fewchildren who can be bought up to so well that they bought up to so well

    that they become good citizens of the country and contributes to the

    development of India. However, it after much explanation and even

    cajoling, the rural people do not understand the magnitude of the

    problem, they should dare say be faced into family planning with several

    incentives and punishment for their activities in family planning process.

    CAUSES OF RAPID POPULATION

    1. University of marriage

    2. Practice of early marriage

    3. poverty of the people

    4. Joint family system

    5. Religion social superstitions

    6. Lack of education

    7. predominance of agriculture

    8. Slow urbanization process

    The growth of population was held in check by the prevalence of a

    high death rate against a high birth rate. Birth and death rate were more

    of less during this period. India was in the first stage of demographic

    transition.

    The main reason for the increase in population growth rate was

    decline in death from about 49 per thousand to 27 per thousand but

    compared with this but there was a very small decrease in birth rate.

    THE PEOBLEM OF POPWLAATION IN INDIA

    1. Keeps standard of living low

    2. Create food shortage3. Leads to subdivision of fragmentation of land

    4. Increase the problem of unemployment and distinguished

    employment

    BIRTH RATE AND DEATH RATE

    The registration of Birth and Death Act 1996 (Central ACT 18

    OF 1969) come into force into Kerala on April 1970 wide Government of

    India Gazette Notification dated 21st March 1970 along with many other

    states. The Kerala registration of birth and death rates 1970 was

    published in 29th June 1970 by SRO NO: 262/70 Gazette dated 1st July

    1970 having been approved by the Government of India as laid down in

    section 30(1) if the said act.

    The Director of panchayath had been appointed as Chief Registrar of

    Birth and Death for the state of Kerala wide SRO- 144\70 published in

    Kerala extraordinary Gazette number 155 dared 31-03-1970. The entire

    responsibility to co-ordinate and activate is vested with the Chief

    Registrar. This are:-

  • 8/8/2019 Jithin Birth & Death

    14/64

    1. Co-ordination and supervision of the registration work in the state.

    2. Providence necessary directions and guidance of the registration work

    in the state

    3. Organizing training programmers

    4. Monitoring monthly returns from the local registration

    5. Preparation of annual reports in the working of the Act alone with

    statistical report

    BIRTH RATE AND AUTONOMOUS FACTORS

    Science reduction in the birth rate to slow down the population

    growth is the only feasible course. We take up here the autonomous

    factors reducing birth rate. This will be followed by a discussion of

    deliberate methods of family planning. The main autonomous factors

    that reduce birth rate are rise in per capita income; urbanization, late

    marriage etc are deduction in birth rate.

    HIGH BIRTH RATE AND HIGH DEATH RATE

    High birth rate is caused by many factors such as social traditions,

    religious beliefs, absences of facilities for family planning etc. Further

    a large family is found to be children and children a very early age

    start participating in their parents worked and are helpful in raising

    family income. Besides this children are a source of help and security

    to their parents in their old age. Science the mortality rate is high

    parents can ensure the survival of some children only by having more.

  • 8/8/2019 Jithin Birth & Death

    15/64

    On the other hand the death rate is also high. Many factors

    contribute to a high death rate. People are so poor that they cannot

    afford a balanced diet with the result that they remain poor in health.

    Their houses are not fit for healthy living. Because Famines and

    epidemics stalk the land which also causes a high death rate.

    Compared to death rate the birth rate is only slightly high.

    HIGH BIRTH RATE AND ITS CAUSES

    To understand the causes of birth- rate changes, we will have to

    look for change in the birth rate and death rate. Largely, it is the

    difference between these two rates that influences the growth rate of

    population of a country. Migration too plays some part and it has in

    fact affected the population of certain countries. But in the present

    conditions this factor has become almost unimportant. In the case

    India too, Migration has played in significant role in the growth of

    population. In analyzing the population growth of country, we have to

    concentrate on the basic analysis of birth rate and death rate.

    High birth rate in the country is not unexpected. This in fact is a

    special future of under developed countries. Many economic and non-

    economic factors are responsible for this high birth rate.

    DECLINING DEATH RATE AND ITS CAUSES

    The situation regarding death rate is quiet different. In the

    beginning of this century the death rate was as high as 43 pr thousand.

    In under developed countries such high rates are quiet normal.

  • 8/8/2019 Jithin Birth & Death

    16/64

    Poverty, illiteracy, early marriage, lack of medical facilities etc. are

    the causes of large many deaths.

    In the earlier years the high death-rate was caused by several factors.

    1. Famines and epidemics

    2. Medical and health facilities

    3. High natural growth

    The demographic transition is the relationship between the birth rate and

    the death rate. The birth rate and death rate differ in different stages of

    economic developments.

    FINDINGS

    SUGGESTIONS

    AND CONCLUSION

    FINDINGS

  • 8/8/2019 Jithin Birth & Death

    52/64

    1. Valakom Grama Panchayath death rate is high compared to birth

    rate

    2. The registration of Birth and Deaths Act 1969, defined that any

    death, birth in a hospital, health center, maternity or nursing home

    or other like institution, the medical officer in charge any person

    authorized by him must register that birth and death in the

    panchayath.

    3. During these years, people went good hospital facility. So the

    registration in the panchayath is rare locality, where the hospital

    situated. But there is no change in panchayath.

    4. The number of death registered in 2003 is 70 and of birth is only

    30. Birth rate is very low compared to birth rate. This is because in

    this area natural death is more. So the registration of that death is

    in Valakom Panchayath. This will cause high death rate.

    When we compare the death rate of six years, we can found that the

    death rate is more or less similar during all this years. In this area

    accidents are rare.

    One demerit is Graduate Post Graduate is rare in this area. Most

    people dont passed even SSLC so most people work for the Blue collar

    job that is white collar jobs are rare. In ten respondents one is Graduateand four respondents were not passed SSLC. So they do not get white

    collar jobs.

    In most families the number of children is two and in some other

    families the number of children is more than two that is they dont know

  • 8/8/2019 Jithin Birth & Death

    53/64

    the importance of family planning. Due to lack of knowledge. But all

    people registered their birth and also get the certificate is an unavoidable

    factor to prove the age.

    In case of death certificate most people do not get their parents death

    certificate. They have no use by receiving these certificates. But some

    people borrowed the death certificates. This is because they want to get

    insurance claim. Without death certificate insurance claim will not

    receive. So they collect their parents death certificate.

    Even educated people did not know the importance of receiving

    the death certificate. They were also reluctant to receive the certificates

    of their parents death.

    All people who registered the birth and death. If is registered

    within 21 days that is, the people have less knowledge about it. This is

    important that there should not be any correction or over writings in the

    certificates that is in death and birth certificates.

    It is noted in Valakom Grama Panchayath still birth registers are

    not maintained since there is not still birth registration.

    SUGGESTIONS

  • 8/8/2019 Jithin Birth & Death

    54/64

    Suggestion to Reduce Birth Rate:

    1. People should be motivated to have less number of children. This

    can be done by educating them about the evils of large family and

    benefit of a small family.

    2. Compulsory schooling for children should be provide. This will

    prevent poor parents from exploiting the labor of their children to

    supplement their income.

    3. People must be helped through active education campaign to

    overcome their irrational ideas about the birth of children.

    4. Educated and economically independent women to take care to

    limit their family.

    5. Adopting self-control can practice family planning.

    6. People should be given proper knowledge about the various birth

    control devices.

    7. The various birth control devices must made easily available

    people at cheaper rate.

    8. Adopting various artificial birth control devices like mechanical

    contraceptive and medicines, sterilization and abortion can practice

    family planning.

    Through economic development we can also reduce the birth.Economic development can be achievement by adopting scientific

    methods of agriculture and rapid industrialization of the country will

    raise the standard of living of the people.

    Suggestion to Reduce Death Rate:

  • 8/8/2019 Jithin Birth & Death

    55/64

    1. Avoidance of poverty will reduce the number of death that is due

    to poverty death will occur.

    2. Providing proper hospital facilities. At the time of accident, proper

    hospital facilities will help to reduce the chance of death.

    CONCLUSION

  • 8/8/2019 Jithin Birth & Death

    56/64

    The death and birth rate is an important factor that contributes

    towards population. In a country where there is high population

    exploitation a lot many factors contribute to death and birth rate. Many of

    the death rates are not registered in the panchayath. The most common

    factor behind it is that the people are least bothered to register the death

    in the family. Birth rates are reported automatically as the hospital

    authorities register them. In Kerala time limit prescribed for reporting

    birth and death events with in 21 days of its occurrence.
