प्रश्न
Write a short note on :
Impact of relief on population distribution.
उत्तर
- Relief is one of the most important factors influencing the distribution of the population.
- Generally, mountains are thinly populated, plains are thickly populated and plateaus are moderately populated.
- The mountains and hilly areas are less populated because of limited means of livelihood; agriculture is poorly developed, and transportation facilities are limited. For example, the northeastern states of India have less population due to hilly and mountainous relief.
- On the other hand, plains are densely populated because of fertile soil and well-developed agriculture. Due to plain relief, it is easy to construct roads and develop industries. Better employment facilities attract people to these areas. For example, the Ganga plains are thickly populated
- In short, we can say plains are densely populated and mountains and plateaus are sparsely populated.
