| Article Name : | | | LIVELIHOOD OF RURAL FOLK AND THEIR ENVIRONMENT: A CASE STUDY OF KOHIMA DISTRICT | | Author Name : | | | Soyhunlo Sebu , Brenda | | Publisher : | | | Ashok Yakkaldevi | | Article Series No. : | | | GRT-4345 | | Article URL : | |  | Author Profile View PDF In browser | | Abstract : | | | In this paper an attempt has been made to study the relation between rural folk and their environment. Nagaland has a population of 19.18 lakh, which is approximately 0.16% of total Indian population. The proportion of rural population has declined from 82.77% to 71.03% in 2011 census. The main reason behind such a high declined rate is because after 2001 census, eleven new towns were notified by the state Government and in addition seven new census towns were identified. Kohima district is inhabited by two major Naga tribes viz., Angami and Rengma. Traditionally Nagas used to settle in the mountains for security reason. Even today almost all the villages are found scatter in mountain area. | | Keywords : | | |
