Abstract :
             The study of population growth is essential for understanding the population change and better predictions in future population rates. Population projections have been used for planning to ensure provision of basic requirements and prerequisites for human development. The purpose of this research is to study the population growth and future trends and also to identify population growth hot spots in Man river basin. Decadal population growth and population projection calculated with the help of secondary data. Population growth hot spots were identified, extracted and integrated within GIS framework. The highest decadal population growth rate recorded is 28.32 per cent and lowest population growth rate recorded 14.75 per cent in the decade 1981-1991 and 2001-2011 respectively. The projected rise in Man river basin population to 13.28 lakh in 2050 represents an increase of 4.22 lakh over the 2011 population of 9.06 lakh. Out of total 346 villages consisting of 59 villages are falling as hot spots.
