District Overview

In the tribal map of our country, Odisha occupies an important place with the
largest variety of Scheduled Tribe communities for which it is popularly known as
the “home land of the Tribal.” As many as 62 different tribal communities reside in
the state. These people live in contiguous areas traditionally forming their territorial
units. In order to protect their interest and preserve their culture along with the
development process, special provisions have been made under the ambit of 5th
Schedule of the Constitution of India. The idea of ‘Scheduled Area’ was mooted
under the provision to give special treatment to these tribal people and these areas
are known as the Tribal Sub-plan Areas (TSP). In Odisha out of 30 districts, 12
districts which comprise a sizeable population of tribal inhabitants are covered
under the TSP areas. The entire seven districts such as Kandhamal, Mayurbhanj,
Sundergarh, Nowrangpur, Koraput, Malkanagiri, Rayagada and parts of five
districts such as Balasore, Keonjhar, Sambalpur, Gajpati and Kalahandi are under
its coverage. In a country like India, the seven major infrastructural factors that
are most significant in accelerating the pace of economic development are energy,
transport, irrigation, finance, communication, education and health. While the
first five refer to economic infrastructural facilities, the latter two relate to social
infrastructure. In this chapter an attempt has been made to provide a picture of
development in these districts of the state which helps to calculate composite
development index to measure development disparity among these districts of
Odisha.

The chapter deals with district wise data on its administrative set-up, demography,
educational institutions, literacy rate, vital statistics, GDDP, gender disparity in
human development index and infrastructure development, health statistics and
indicators, information on agriculture sector such as land utilization pattern,
irrigation potential, forest land, operational land holding, crop production etc.,
information on socio-economic sectors such as ICDS projects, employment
generation under MGNREGA, SGSY, beneficiaries under IAY and Mo Kudia,
Pension schemes, village electrification status, railway routes and railway stations,
communication etc. It is expected that the information as enshrined in this chapter
will cater to need of all sections of researchers, planners and economists in the
formulation of new plans and programmes for upliftment of these communities.

TSP Blocks of Odisha

The state has unique distinction of having 62 different tribal communities spread
over 30 districts and 314 blocks. As per 2011 census, they constitute 22.85% of the
total population of the state and 9.20% of the total tribal population of the country.
Among the 314 blocks of the state 118 blocks are under scheduled areas which have
been covered under the TSP approach. These blocks are called Tribal Sub plan
Blocks. The TSP approach envisages integrated development of these scheduled
tribal areas. Presently 21 Integrated Tribal development Agencies (ITDAs) are
functioning in 12 districts of the state covering these 118 blocks having more than
50% of tribal population. In order to protect the interest of the tribal population and
bring sustainable development to these areas various developmental initiatives
have been taken up. It is needless to say that such planning of the region more
or less depends on various informations relating to socio economic development.
Keeping this in mind this chapter highlights various socio-economic indicators
and infrastructural facilities available in these blocks. To begin with, the chapter
deals with the geographical location, administrative set-up etc. of each block.
It is followed by data on ten sectors such as demography, education, housing,
health, agriculture, irrigation, drinking water facility, infrastructure, veterinary
institutions and social security programmes. The data furnished here are as per
the latest data available with us. A short description on some of these sectors are
given under.

Demography is important as it presents population data in a systematic manner.


It also aids in framing of economic programmes that contribute to economic
development keeping in pace with the rate of growth of population. Demography
sector includes data on population, child population, sex ratio, child sex ratio,
workers and Work Participation Rate (WPR).

Education plays a vital role in the process of development of human resource. In


this context literacy is an important indicator of development of education. The
number of educational institutions is also important in attaining literacy level.
Under the education sector number of literates, literacy rate, no of graduates,
gender disparity index in literacy, enrollment, have been covered. In housing sector
which indicates the status of shelter provided to the population is also depicted
by giving the total number of households and household size with the number of
beneficiaries under IAY, Mo kudia etc.

Orissa’s economy is predominantly characterized by traditional agriculture. It is


always affected by vagaries of nature as it predominantly depends on monsoon.

39
The state is frequently affected by drought in the highland districts and floods
in the coastal districts due to erratic behavior of the monsoon. In such a scenario
development of irrigation facilities to mitigate the twin problems of drought
and flood cannot be underestimated. From the data given under agriculture and
irrigation sector one can estimate the actual percentage of gross irrigated area to
gross cultivated area of a block and also get a glimpse about various sources of
irrigation.

Economic development is virtually depends on the development of the energy


sector. In order to introduce modern agricultural economy by the application of
scientific inputs and technology the country has been striving for generation of
more electricity, and 100 per cent electrification of the villages. This is evident from
the progressive increase in per capita consumption of electricity in these areas.
The actual state of electrification of the villages in different TSP blocks of Odisha
is shown inside.

Health constitutes a part of the social infrastructure and combindly they reflect the
development scope of human capital. Under the health sectors data on number of
Medical Colleges & Hospitals, Dispensaries, Health centers, Sub-centers, Maternity
Centre, Child Welfare Centre, Doctors and Community health worker are provided
along with information on AYUSH and Homeopathy.

The status of banking and financial facilities extended to these areas, creation of
stadiums, sports club, community halls are also given in the chapter.
Animal husbandry is also an important source of income of the rural economy. No
of veterinary institutions, health personnel present in blocks are given to reflect the
status of improvement in these areas.

Social Security protects not just the beneficiary but also his/her entire family by
giving benefit packages in financial security and health care sector. Social Security
Schemes are designed to guarantee at least long-term sustenance to families when
the earning member retires, dies or suffers a disability. Thus the main strength of
the Social Security system is that it acts, as a facilitator - it helps people to plan their
own future through insurance and assistance. In social security sector beneficiaries
covered under BPL, Pension schemes, SGSY, MGNREGA are given, which shows
the involvement of the state in different welfare activities. In a nutshell, this chapter
aims to cater to the need of all planners, researchers and academicians in the field
of their activities.

Formula used
• Child Sex Ratio : Child sex ratio (0-6 years) has been defined as the number of females
in age-group 0-6 years per 1000 males in the same age-group in the population. It is
expressed as ‘number of female children age (0-6) years per 1000 male children age
(0-6) years’
Number of females children
Child Sex Ratio = X 1000
Number of male children

• Gender Gap in Sex Ratio = 1000 – Sex Ratio


• Gender Gap in Child (0-6 Yrs) Sex Ratio = 1000 – Sex Ratio (0-6 Yrs)
• Gender Gap in Literacy = Male Literacy Rate - Female Literacy Rate
(Gender Gap in Literacy is the difference between male and female literacy rate)
• Gender Disparity Index in Literacy = Log x2/x1+Log(100-x1)/100-x2)
Where x2 ≥ x1
X1= Female Literacy
X1=Male Literacy Rate
(Disparity in literacy level relates to their respective spheres of dominance)
No. of Girls Enrolled
• Gender Parity index in enrolment =
No. of Boys Enrolled
(Gender Parity index in enrolment is the ratio of the number of female students enrolled
at primary, secondary and tertiary levels of education to the number of male students
in each level)
• Literacy Rate : Literacy rate of population is defined as the percentage of literates to
the total population age 7 years and above.
Number of Literates
Literacy = X 100
Population aged 7+ years

Total Population
• Population Density =
Total Area
(Population Density is the population per unit of land area; for example, people per
square mile or people per square kilometer of arable land)

• Sex Ratio : Sex ratio has been defined as the number of females per 1000 males in the
population. It is expressed as ‘number of females per 1000 males’.
Number of females
Sex Ratio = X 1000
Number of males

Total no of worker
• Work Participation Rate = X 100
Total Population
(Work Participation Rate (WPR) is the percentage of total workers to the total
population)
