Revisit to Functional Classification of Towns in Nepal
The Geographical Journal of Nepal Vol. 10: 15-27, 2017 Central Department of Geography, Tribhuvan University, Kathmandu, Nepal Revisit to functional classification of towns in Nepal Chandra Bahadur Shresthaa, and Shiba Prasad Rijalb aSanepa, Lalitpur, Nepal; bDepartment of Geography Education, Tribhuvan University, Kirtipur, Kathmandu, Nepal; *Corresponding author Email: [email protected] The present study on functional classification of the towns in Nepal is a revisit to the study made in 1980 applying the similar methodology. The previous study was based on census data of 1971 and the present study on census data of 2011. The percentages of surplus labour force in proportion to national level were computed considering five activities groups involved in non-agricultural sectors. Then, the arithmetic means of each activity group were calculated and the standard deviations from the means were taken for measuring the functional specialization.The study revealed that both the degree of urbanization and level of functional specialization have considerably increased during a period of four decades. There were only 16 towns in 1971, which increased to 58 in 2011. The number of specialized towns has increased by six folds from 4 in 1971 to 26 in 2011. The level of urbanization has now been a prominent phenomenon as compared to that in 1971. In 1971, even the then large towns were with high agricultural labor force. Now, the proportion of agricultural labor force has declined considerably. However, agriculture labor forces constitute to be dominant in more than 15 smaller towns. It indicates that urban economic base is not being taken into account while incorporating places as municipalities in several cases.

Nepal General Evaluation 1
Nepal general evaluation 1 NEPAL A COUNTRY PROFILE Nepal is a land-locked country sandwiched between two neighbouring giants China (in the north) and India (in the east, south and west). One of the 49 Least Developed Countries (LDCs), with an annual per capita income of US$ 230, Nepal is ranked as 143rd (out of 175 countries) in the Human Development Index (HDI) of UNDP, and falls under the category of ‘low human development’ countries in the human development aggregates (UNDP 2003). Nepal, which stretches in an area of 147,181 sq km, is a land of enormous geographical diversity divided east-west into three distinct ecological zones: the plains (terai) on the south, hills and mountains in the middle and the Himalayas on the north. Thousands of rivers and streams that flow north-south bisect the landscape into hundreds of small hills and hillocks isolating the residents from each other and from the rapidly evolving world of information and development because of the lack of linking infrastructure (transport and communication). These three regions also display an immense diversity of human settlement patterns, population, land distribution, productive resources and levels of economic development. Home to nearly 24 million people, Nepal is a mosaic of over 61 ethnic groups who have their own distinct languages, cultures life styles. Officially, however, it is a Hindu State with a rigid caste system that compartmentalizes the people into 4-tire hierarchy. This caste framework finds a close nexus historically with the system of governance, in which the upper caste, the bahun and chhettri castes in particular, have always held the positions of power and privileges, and by virtue of their being in lower tiers, other groups are routinely discriminated against and deprived of accessing decisive State structures and institutions.
