    Cosmos Multidisciplinary Research E-Journal Online Available at www.cmrj.in Recognized International Peer Reviewed Journal ISSN No. 2456-1665 Population Growth & Density in Buldhana District: A Geographical Review Mr. Rajendra Ramesh Shegokar Research Student Introduction: The concept of growth of population is often used to find out the change in the number of inhabitants of a territory during a specific period of time, irrespective of the fact whether change is negative or positive. Population geographers have often calculated the growth of population for a period of ten years. This period normally synchronises with the inter censal periods. Such a growth rate calculated with the help of actual population have counts is known as actual rate of population growth. In case of actual growth rate the factor of migration is also taken into consideration with natural growth (births and deaths). Keywords: Population, Growth, Development Study Area: Buldhana is a district in the Amravati division of Maharashtra state in western India at the westernmost border of Vidarbha region and is 500 km from the state capital, Mumbai. Buldhana district is located in the central part of the state of Maharashtra.

  • Akola Police History
    Akola Police history What constitutes Akola district at present was originally a part of the Nizam's dominion assigned in 1853 to the East India Company in liquidation of the large debt due on account of arrears of pay on the Hyderabad contingent and as a security for future payment of that force. At that time Berar was divided into two districts, South and North. In 1857 Berar was reconstituted into two districts, West Berar with headquarters at Akola and East Berar with headquarters at Amravati. In 1903,the treaties of assignment were superseded by an agreement under which the Nizam leased Berar to the Government of India for an annual rent of 25 lakhs of rupees in perpetuity. The administration of Berar was transferred from Hyderabad to the then Chief Commissioner of Central Provinces. In 1864, when the district of Buldhana was constituted, a part of the west Berar district was transferred to Buldhana district. In 1875, again when Washim district was created some parts were transferred and the district and tahsil boundaries were completely overhauled in 1905. Murtizapur tahsil was transferred from Amravati t Akola district and Khamgaon and Jalgaon tahsils were transferred from Akola to Buldhana district. Washim district was broken and two tahsils of Washim and Mangrulpir were included in the newly constituted Akola district. There were no major changes in the boundaries of the district between 1911 and 1955. In 1956, with the Reorganisation of the States, the district was transferred from Madhya Pradesh to the then Bombay State and in 1960 it became a part of the State of Maharashtra.
