Description

Definition
States have been divided into regions by grouping contiguous districts similar in respect of population density and crop pattern. In Gujarat, however, some districts have been split for the purpose of region formation, considering the location of dry areas and the distribution of tribal population in the state. The compositions of the regions are given in Appendix-II of instruction manual
