In 1901, the population of the study area was 91,3818; the population increased to 1140920 in 1951. Therefore, the growth of only 227102 persons (24.8 percent) in the population of five decades was due. In the period from 1951 to 2001, there was an increase in population (166%) during the period from 1st year 1901 to 1951 due to decrease in health services and outbreak of epidemics such as cholera, plague, chickenpox etc. due to decline in population during this period.
