Chapter-V Levels of Infrastructural Facilities V.L INTRODUCTION
Chapter-V Levels of Infrastructural Facilities V.l INTRODUCTION: Infrastructural development shows the quality of population in any given region. The infrastructure is the totality of the structure of road network,· communication and transmission of information, health and other amenities. The development of a region - depends upon the development of agriculture and industry but such a development cannot take place without simultaneous development of infrastructure. The rural areas of India are stagnant and lagging behind the urban areas because of inadequacy of infrastructure. The pace of development is stimulated with better infrastructural facilities. V.2. TRANSPORT The linkage of urban centres is possible due to the development of road, rail, waterways and airways. Transportation line acts as the lifeline of urban development without which the concentration of population and economic progress of the urban areas are not possible. The efficiency and ease of transport and its capacity to generate high level of urbanization should be emphasized. The transport lines act as conveyers of trade, commerce and mutual understanding and innovation between places have their roles properly played in localization of facilities, concentration of specialized population and they in turn led to the location and growth of urban centres in the region. The district of Koch Bihar is endowed with a variety of agricultural pursuits, so an efficient transport system is essential for their proper utilization and speedy development. Since transport is basic prerequisite, no specific elaboration is required here to highlight the role played by it in any region's socio-economic change. The close connection between the development of various sectors of economy and a good transport network is, in fact, well established. -

Size Distribution of Urban Centres Across North Bengal During 1991 to 2011
[VOLUME 6 I ISSUE 2 I APRIL – JUNE 2019] e ISSN 2348 –1269, Print ISSN 2349-5138 http://ijrar.com/ Cosmos Impact Factor 4.236 Rank – Size Distribution of Urban Centres across North Bengal during 1991 to 2011 Dr. Arindam Basak Assistant Professor, Department of Geography & Applied Geography, University of North Bengal Received: February 05, 2019 Accepted: March 28, 2019 ABSTRACT: North Bengal has witnessed lack luster urbanization and growth of urban centres till 2011. Given its geographical coverage, the number of urban centres in North Bengal was only 45 in 1991 and 48 in 2001. However, in 2011 the number of urban centres in North Bengal suddenly increased to 131 which is quite stupendous compared to previous years. This sudden increase in the number of urban centres affected the rank-size distribution of urban centres across North Bengal. In this paper an attempt has been made to calculate the rank-size distribution of urban centres across North Bengal during 1991, 2001 and 2011 and to analyze the effect of a huge increase in the number of urban centres over the system of city-size distribution in this region. Key Words: North Bengal, Urbanization, Urban Centres, Rank-Size distribution. Introduction If urban centres are arranged according to their population size in a particular region they are related to one another. The population of the second largest urban centre will have half the population of the largest or primate city, the third largest urban centre will have 1/3rd population of the largest urban centre of the region. This relationship between the population of any urban centre and its rank in a set of urban centres of a region is called the rank-size rule.
