title: Population regionals--a perspective in geographic space of India.
abstract: "This paper is concerned with the issue of delimiting population [regions] in India on the basis of selected and basic population variables."  Types of regions are defined in two ways:  by measuring 16 population variables at the district level and by measuring selected blocks of variables at the state/union territory level.  "A defined method of score assessment has been employed which displays characteristic and clear grouping of districts in each [case]."  Data are from the 1971 census.
