摘要：Population growth refers to the increase or decrease of inhabitants in a particular area during a specificperiod of time. West Bengal is one of the populous states of India and Paschim Medinipur is a highly populated districtof West Bengal. The western part of this district is formed by Jhargram Subdivision which is economically verybackward in nature compared to the other subdivisions of the district. This paper analyses the population growth ofJhargram Subdivision during a period of fifty years (1961 to 2011) and finds out that the region had very highpopulation growth rate during 1961 which has come down considerably in 2011. But during each decade a certainundulating trend of population growth in each block can be seen as a result of natural increase and socio-econo-politicalscenario of the district. The analysis reveals that the study area has entered the late second stage of demographictransition in 2011 from first stage in 1961.
