iv INTRODUCTORY NOTE

The Provisional Population Totals of Census of India 2001, Series 16 - Mizoram, in the form of th Paper 1 of 2001 was released at Aizawl at a Press Conference at the Press Club on the 28 March 2001 immediately after the Provisional Population Totals and related data of the country as well as those of all other States and Union Territories were announced by the Registrar General and Census Commissioner of India at New Delhi. Paper 1 0[2001 ofMizoram mainly contained the total provisional figures of population of the state of Mizoram, male and female break up, sex ratio, density of population and literacy as well as total provisional population of children in 0 to 6 years of age in Mizoram as on 00:00 Hrs of 0 1 March 2001 which was fixed as Census moment and reference date respectively. Certain figures on the aforementioned items at District level were also incorporated in Paper-I. In addition to brief analytical notes on salient points, maps and graphs etc. were also prepared in support of and to explain the subject matter more elaborately. The Paper-l was, therefore, the first publication of the Census of India 2001 pertaining to Mizoram.

In the present publication, which is also called Paper 2 of200 1, details of certain additional information on Rural-Urban Distribution of population of Mizoram upto mral development block level based on provisional figures and supported by various tables, statements and maps has been incorporated. For this reason the present publication is entitled "Provisional Population Totals - Paper 2 of2001, Rural-Urban I Distribution of Population - Series 16 - Mizoram." As we do not have any slum areas and urban agglomerates in Mizoram no such data could be compiled and included in this Paper. It may be noted that details regarding all other information collected by the census enumerators during field operations would be compiled and released later on in a phased manner after the scanning is completed at the Scanning Centre in future.

It may not be out of place to mention here that all 22 towns of Mizoram are Notified Towns, the number of which has increased from one in 1961 to 22 in 1991 which remained the same in 2001. However, the total percentage of urban population in the State has increased from 46.10 to 49.50 during 1991-2001.

In addition to various tables and statements along with brief analysis, certain charts and maps have also been incorporated in this publication.

ANALYTICAL NOTES

POPULATION, CHILD POPULATION IN THE AGE GROUP 0-6 YEARS AND LITERATES - BY RESIDENCE AND SEX - STATE, DISTRICT, CITYffOWN - 2001

The Paper 1 of200l earlier released in March 2001 by this Directorate contained the data regarding provisional totals of persons - male, female; children of age group 0-6 years, density of population, sex ratio and percentage of literates among the population 7 years and above.

In addition 16 what has been released through Paper 1 of2001 earlier, details ofthe population ofthe state with District wise break up, population of towns)n Mizoram and number of children in the age group of 0-6 years, number of I iterates of population 7 years and above and rural urban distribution of popu lation have been presented at Table 1. A scrutiny of the data given in Table 1 will indicate that among the 22 Notified Towns of Mizoram, the capital town of Aizawl is not only th~ largest town with a population of 229714, as many as 52 % of the total urban population of the state reside in this town and that B iate with a population of 2227 is having only 0.50 % population of urban areas of Mizoram. Another interesting information is that while the population of the largest town is 229714, the second largest town of in South Mizoram is having only 47,3.55 inhabitants followed by with population of26430. Thus out of the total urban population of 441 040 residing in 22 Notified Towns of the state, total population of these three towns comes to 303501 which is 68.81% of the t0lli:' urban population. In other words, out of every 100 urban population ~s many as 69 persa"~s reside in these three towns. It can also be seen that out of 22 Notified Towns, 18 such Towns are located in the northern part of the state leaving only three in , one in Saiha and none in District.

As briefly mentioned earlier in the introductory note, the urbanisation in Mizoram has not been following any established trend as it is not taking place due to rapid industrialization of any particular area and large scale migration to tc5wns due to economic factors. For this reason it can be seen that except rapid growth of population of Aizawl town, the increase in population of most of other towns is due to the general growth of population in the state during last decade. In fact in towns like and there was a decrease of population in 2001 in comparison with that of 1991 Census.

6 POPULATION, CHILD POPULATION IN THE AGE GROUP 0-6 YEARS AND LITERATES BY RESIDENCE AND SEX - STATE, DISTRICT AND R. D. BLOCKS - 2001

As the system of having TalukafTehsil et? is not followed to demarcate lower formation of geographical and administrative areas in this state, Rural Development Block areas have been taken as units in place of Tehsilrraluka in calculating the total popUlation of each of such unit male, female, child population in the age group of 0-6 years, literates in 7 years and above population with male female break up in each category after calculating the relevant figures at State and District levels.

From a scrutiny of the data given at Table 2, it can be seen that-

a) The largest population is covered by Tlangnuam Rural Development Block (253897 i.e. 28.49 %) of . This District has also the distinction of having the smallest R.D. Block of Phullen with a population of 12335 i.e. 1.38 %. b) In the R.D. Block areas of i) West Phaileng ii) Phullen iii) Aibawk iv) v) Khawbung vi) West Bunghmun vii) Lawngtlai viii) Chawngte and ix) Sangau there is no urban area. c) There is no urban population in . d) Aizawl District is having the largest number of urban (248852) and rural (90960) popUlation among the Districts of Mizoram.

An analysis of the child population in the age group 0-6 years reveals that -

a) The total female population of children in Serchhip, Sangau and Phullen R.D. Blocks is more than the male children population. b) Tn Thingsulthliah and Serchhip R.D. Blocks the total number of female children in urban areas is more than male children . c) Rural female children population of East Lungdar and R.D. Blocks is higher than male children population.

i) East Lungdar F 1181 M 1138

ii) Hnahthial F 1403 M 1391

The analysis ofthe data pertaining to literacy has been made at the appropriate place later on. However it may not be out of place to mention here that the difference between the number of male literates and female literates is more prominent in rural areas of Mamit, Lunglei, Lawngtlai and Saiha Districts as well as rural areas of i) ii) North Thingdawl iii) iv) East Lungdar v) West Bunghmun vi) Lungsen vii) Lawngtlai viii) Tuipang·and particularly in ix) Chawngte R.D. Blocks.

12 PERCENTAGE DECADAL GROWTH, PERCENTAGE OF CHILD POPULATION IN THE AGE GROUP 0-6 YEARS BY RESIDENCE AND PERCENTAGE OF URBAN POPULATION TO TOTAL POPULATION-200l

Percentage decadal growth of population, of Mizoram during the decade 1991-2001 was 29.18 per cent against all India average growth of 21.34 percent during the same period. The growth during 1991- 2001 in the state is 10.62 per cent less than the growth recorded for the period 1981-1991. From Table 3 it may be seen that the growth of the population in the urban areas during 1991-2001 was 38.72 and in rural areas 21.03 percent. Among the Districts, the highest growth was recorded as 39.24 in Aizawl District and the lowest was in (-3.49). Aizawl District has also recorded the highest growth of 45.72 in urban areas whereas the highest growth in rural areas (37.56) was found to be in . The lowest growth in urban areas (22.64) was in Mamit District. The lowest growth in rural areas (-7.63) was also recorded in Mamit District. The reason for this decrease in the rural population may be due to out migration of a substantial number of rural population to the neighbouring state ofTripura in the recent past due to some local problems. Apart from Mamit District the low growth in rural areas was found to be 11.73 in followed by 18.16 per cent in Lunglei District.

Regarding percentage of urban population in Mizoram as recorded in Census of2001 it may be stated that the figure 49.50 is slightly higher than the percentage of 46.10 recorded in 1991 Census. Among the Districts the highest percentage of urban population of73.23 is recorded in Aizawl District while the lowest percentage of urban population was found to be in Mamit District among all the Districts if population of Lawngtlai District, where there is no urban population, is not taken into consideration.

As regards percentage of child population in the age group of 0-6 years it can be seen that against a total percentage ofl5 .88 in this group the percentage of female children is higher (16.17) than the percentage of male children (15.62) in the state. It may also be seen that the total percentage of children in rural areas is higher (17.65) than in the urban areas (14.08) and percentage of female children in both rural and urban areas are more (18.16 and 14.16) than male children (17.18 and 14.01).

District wise analysis of the data of population of children of this group indicates that the percentage 9f children is the highest in Lawngtlai District (18.82) where the number of literate persons have been recorded to be the lowest (56.46) during 2001 Census. At the same time the lowest percentage of children was found to be (13.97) in Aizawl District having the highest rate ofliteracy (96.64) during Census of200 I. [n rural areas of Lawngtlai District the percentage of female children is recorded as 19.47 which is the highest among the rural and urban areas of all eight Districts of Mizoram. The lowest percentage of female children (14.15) is found to be in Aizawl District where overall total percentage of children was also the lowest among all districts as mentioned earlier. It may also be seen that in most of the Districts the percentage of female children is higher (18 +) in rural areas against male children (17 +).In urban areas the percentage of children is generally lower than in rural areas of the state.

14 SEX RATIO OF POPULATION AND SEX RATIO OF CHILDREN IN AGE GROUP 0-6 YEARS - STATE, DISTRICT - 2001

Sex ratio is generally expressed as the total number of females per 1000 number of males in a particular locality. A scrutiny of Table 4 will indicate that the sex ratio of the country has been found to be 933 in the Census of 2001 which has increased from 927 recorded in 1991 Census. In Mizoram the ratio in 2001 is 938 which has increased by 17 females per thousand of males recorded in 1991 Census. The highest number of females per thousand of males in District level has been found to be 955 in , the lowest being 901 in Lawngtlai District. In fact sex ratio in all the Districts of Mizoram varies from 901 in Lawngtlai followed by 902 (Mamit), 913 (Kolasib ),_ 922 (Lungtei), 952 (Serchhip), 954 (Aizawl and Saiha) and the highest figure of 955 (Champhai).

As regards sex ratio of children in the age group of 0-6 years it can be seen that the state average is 971 for all children of above group with 978 and 961 in rural and urban areas of the state which is much higher than the sex ratio of the total population of the state.

A comparative study of sex ratio of children in the District of Mizoram will indicate that the highest ratio of 991 is in Serchhip District, the lowest 953 being in Mamit District. Among the rural areas of all the Districts, the highest ratio is recorded as 1005 in Serchhip District and lowest as 963 in Lawngtlai District. Among the urban areas of the District it is the highest in Serchhip District (978) and lowest (828) in Mamit District. Table 4 will give the detail information. However a comparative chart is given below for the benefit of readers.

16 LITERACY RATES BY RESIDENCE AND SEX - STATE, DISTRICT - 2001

A person of 7 years of age and above who can read and write with understanding is taken as literate in the Census. However, if a person can read but can not write and vice versa, shelhe is not taken as a literate. Some children of age group 0-6 year may read and write with some understanding and may be regularly attending school but they are not taken as literate. For a person to be accepted as literate, it is not necessary that she/he should have some formal education in any institution.

Although located in an extremely remote corner of ttte country having no proper communication or even basic infrastructural facilities, it is remarkable that the state of Mizoram is having the second highest literacy rate is in India. This is more so since it was only in the year 1896-97 three schools of lower primary level was established by the Government at Aizawl, Lungleh and Demagiri and within next five decades the percentage of literacy of the people of Mizoram stood at 31.14 in the year 1951. The subsequent progress in the field of I iteracy can be gauged from the table given below and the table 5 presented in this Paper will give the details of literacy position of the state in general and the Districts in particular with rural urban breakup: -

Note: 1) Literacy rates for 1961 and 1971 relate to population aged 5 and above. The rates for the year 1981, 1991 and 2001 relate to population aged 7 and above. 2) In 1981,1991 and 2001 Censuses all children below 7 years of age have been treated as illiterate. In 1961 and 1971 Censuses all children below age 5 years were treated as illiterate. The population aged 7 and above in 2001 is provisional. The final population and persons aged 7 and above will be available when Primary Census Abstract is finalised later.

As per the provisional data of Census of India 2001 released so far, Mizoram with 88.49 per cent literates retained its second position and Kerala with 90.92 per cent "literates continued to occupy the first position.

A scrutiny of the data given at Table 5 reveals that Lawngtlai District with literacy rate of 56.45 is' the least literate District in Mizoram and the literacy rate of the .remaining seven Districts of the state is \ higher than 80 percent. It may also be seen that Aizawl District having the literacy rate of96.64 percent is· the most literate District in Mizoram - the percentage of male and\female literates being 97.20 and 96.06 respectively. Serchhip District with a literacy rate of 96.16 (Male 97.24 and Female 95.02) is the close second.

As already mentioned earlier, during the first census taken is Mjzoram in the year 1901, when it was a new District under the State of Assam, the literacy rate was almost nil but the same has grown to as high as·88.49 percent during next ten decades although corresponding growth in population was also substantially high.

19 POPULATION, PERCENTAGE DECADAL GROWTH 1991-2001, SEX RATIO, LITERACY BY SEX - CITIES AND TOWNS BY SIZE CLASS IN THE STATE - 2001

Table 6 contains details of all 22 Notified Towns ofMizoram. As no urban Agglomeration is located in the state, only the Citiesrrowns have been incorporated in the Table indicating different sizes-classes. It may be noted that in the Census of India 2bol Class I Citiesrrowns have been sub classified into seven sub­ classes namely MI to M7 depending on the population size of the UA/Citiesffowns. [For details ple~se consult Appendix 3 to Table 6). In this Table independent Cityffowns of Mizoram have been arranged in descending order of population in each size-class. It may also be seen that the items incorporated in this Table are popUlation by sex, percentage decadal growth rate for 1991-2001, sex ratio and literacy rate by sex in respect of all 22 notified Towns of the State. Briefly, it may be stated that there is one Notified Town of Class I M2 (Aizawl), Class I means population more than 100,000, M2 means population between 200,000 and 299,000. In addition to the above there are 2 Class III Towns (Lunglei and Champhai), 4 Class IV Towns (, Serchhip, Kolasib and Saiha), 7 number of class V Towns,(, Hnathial, , Khawzawl, N. Kawnpui, and Mamit) and 8 class VI Towns (Darlawn, ,Biate, , North , , Zawlnuam, and ) in the state. Percentage wise Mamit recorded the highest decadal growth of 48.36 although population wise it is only a class V town. It may be noted that although the decadal percentage growth of population of Aizawl Town is less than that of Mamit Town with 47.97. per cent growth during the decade, population wise the population of Aizawl Town has increased by 74474 persons. It may be of interest to note that although there was an increase in popUlation in most of the towns in Mizoram during the decade varying from 6.93 (Darlawn) to 48.36 (Mamit), there was also a decrease of the population in case ofZawlnuam (-9.72) and Biate (-4.22). As regards Sex Ratio, Saitual town has more female inhabitants than males (1013 females per 1000 males). The only other Town with more female inhabitants is North Kawnpui (1002 females per 1000 males). On the other hand there are only 779 females in Sairang per 1000 males. Regarding literacy, Aizawl Town, although having a huge number of inhabitants is having almost 97% literates. Percentage wise Biate, the smallest Town in Mizoram with only 2227 inhabitant is having the highest rate ofliteracy (98.68) followed by Thenzawl (98.67) and North Vanlaiphai (98.25) percent literates, Bairabi with 85.08 per cent literates is having the lowest number ofliterates among all 22 towns of Mizoram.

Appendix 1 of Table 6 contains details of the Towns in alphabetical order with corresponding population, child population in the age group 0-6 years and literates by sex. As the relevant data are given in details and are self explanatory, further discussion on this may not be necessary.

24 GROWTH OF URBAN POPULATION - 1981-2001

Table 7 contains details of number of towns, total population of all classes of towns as well as in each size class of the towns. percentage growth of population and decadal growth during the period 1981 to 2001. It can be seen that in the year 1981 there were only 6 Notified Towns in Mizoram out of which one was class II, one in class IV and the remaining 4 were in class V category and that the number of such Notified Towns in the State increased to 22 during 1981-1991. During 1991-2001 it can be seen that one town (Aizawl) became class I Town, 2 in class 1II, 3 in class IV, 5 in class V and 11 in class VI. During the period 1991-2001 the total number of towns remained the same but due to increase in the urban population in this decade, there was slight change in the size class of class IV, V and VI categories of such towns. It can also be seen that due to sudden increase of Notified Towns from 6 in 1981 to 22 in 1991, the urban population of the State had an enormous increase 121814 in 1981 (24.67%) to 317946 (46.10%). During the decade 1991-2001 there was a slight increase of3.40% in urban population in the State. Consequent decadal increase of population during 1981-1991 was also a very high percentage of 161.01 against the decadal increase of 38.72 percent during the decade 1991-2001. It may be noted that while there was substantial increase in the percentage decadal growth of population in size classes ofI, III, IV and V, there was a decrease in respect of class IV Towns, there was a decrease in populations of class VI categories, in other words the smallest Towns of the State.
