Dear friend, these facts are totally misleading and do not belong to the planning commission of India. Dont mislead readers.
I,ve checked the complete planning commission data but could not find this chart. it is bogus.
Dear anonymous from Jalandhar, I think you and your leaders, who have made a big bogus report without citing any sources should do some serious introspection. I have not published even a single figure without properly satisfying myself of its authenticity. That is the reason why I don't even have comment moderation on!! I want good feedback and inputs from users so that this blog contributes in whatever small way towards the improvement of our state.
Good you have given the planning commission link. now could you yourself locate the chart given by you in it. NO NO NO it is not there. It can not be for the simple reason that it is not like that. Kashmir has grown up from 2 and a half districts in 1947 to 10 districts today because of faulty and one sided (read Kashmir sided)policies. Now dont suggest that parts of Jammu are part of Kashmir and revise your geographical knowlege of J&K.
You might not be a regular reader, but whenever you make any tables, or quote any figures, you have to quote the source. The table has been made my me and it has no where been stated that the table has been picked up from the planning commission site. Never mind, probably you didnt learn that at school.
Coming to your enumeration of districts, I fail to understand what you have written. Can you please write correct english?
I agree. In fact the Hindu Muslim ratio in the state is also around 30:70. So ytour figures look correct!
Regarding your knowledge of your own districts:
At the time of census there were 14 districts and not 10.
Now there are 22 Districts. That is why I have time and again requested you to read and learn and then coment.
See for your self in the said table II.8 on pg 31 Chap II. Ill founded and perverted kashmiri thinkers have no respect for secular system and consider all muslims brothers as kashmiris. Shame.
Table II.8
District-wise Distribution of Population in Jammu and Kashmir
Source: Calculated from the census data of 1971, 1981 and 2001.
The concentration of population is related to the growth of population as well. There
is also a great deal of variation in the rate of growth of population in terms of
spatial dimension. A large number of districts experienced an average annual growth
rate ranging between 2.50 per cent to 3 per cent in 2001 (Table II.9). Most of these
districts form a pocket surrounding Srinagar district. Figure 5 depicts the
concentration of population according to the variations in population growth.
Districts 1951 1961 1971 1981 2001
Kupwara 5.75 5.73 5.58 5.49 6.36
Baramulla 11.05 11.01 11.10 11.19 11.59
Srinagar 12.01 12.36 12.22 11.83 12.30
Badgam 5.84 6.01 5.83 6.13 5.90
Pulwama 6.87 6.95 6.80 6.75 6.28
Anantnag 11.13 11.27 11.22 10.96 11.62
Leh 1.24 1.22 1.12 1.14 1.17
Kargil 1.29 1.27 1.16 1.10 1.14
Doda 7.06 7.37 7.41 7.10 6.86
Udhampur 7.32 7.31 7.42 7.58 7.34
Poonch 4.53 4.34 3.70 3.74 3.69
Rajauri 5.46 4.82 4.71 5.05 4.75
Jammu 14.43 14.41 15.70 15.76 15.61
Kathua 6.01 5.92 6.02 6.17 5.40
Jammu & Kashmir 100.00 100.00 100.00
Yes the table shows no demarcation of the regions as mercilessly depicted in this blog. Lies dont last, not even a day.
Please dont jump to conclusions.
Tell me a single factor which Doda (D), Rajouri (R) or Poonch (P) have in common with Jammu?
1. Language Jammu: Dogri; DRP: Kashmiri, Gojri
2. Weather/Topography: Has jammu ever seen a snowfall?
3. Religion: Jammu: Majority Hindus, DRP: Majority Muslims
4. Food habits: Jammu: Rajma Chol, DRP: Wazwan, mainly non-veg owing to topography
5. Dress: Has any Jammuite ever worn a Phiran?
6. Other symbols: Do dogris use Kangri ever?
In a nutshell, Jammu, Udhampur and Kathua have a Punjabi culture so have been clubbed as one unit. All others have a Kashmiri culture so have been clubbed under KAshmir.
P.S. Post-independence reorgaganization of Indian States was done on the basis of all the above factors. You may do a bit of research to verify the above.
