Changes and Developments in the Population of the Nimar District. 49 Changes and Developments in the Population of the Nimar District in the Central Provinces of India. By Stephen Fuchs, S. V. D. Conten ts: Introduction. 1. Changes in Religions Views. 2. Social Changes. 3. Changes in the Standard of Living. 4. Changes in the Economic Conditions. 5. Schools and Education. f>. Development of Political Views. Conclusion. Introduction. In the last two or three decades momentous changes have taken place in India in all spheres of religious, social, economic, and political life. Naturally, these developments are more noticeable in areas where people are more intensely alive and in sections of the Indian population with a more advanced mental outlook. But to some extent even the most conservative classes of people in the most backward regions of India are affected by the revolutionary spirit of the modern age. It is most interesting to study the impact of modern civilisation just in such backward areas. The Nimar District, the westernmost district of the Central Provinces, is such a backward area where life still moves at a slow pace and where the population is generally much averse to changing their time-honoured traditions and habits of life. It was felt that for the purpose of this paper an exact and detailed study of each of the numerous castes of the Nimar was unnecessary, as an accurate investigation of a number of well-selected and representative castes provides a quite adequate picture of the conditions which prevail among the whole population. The castes selected for special investigations were the Narmdiya Brahmans who are until this day the spiritual leaders of the Hindu population of the Nimar ; the Rajputs who form the bulk of the Anthropos XLI-XLIV. 1946-1949. 4
