Population density, literacy rate, and selected socio-economic indicators had been analysed through statistical correlation, thematic mapping, and spatial interpretation. The findings had indicated marked spatial variations in both population density and literacy, with higher values concentrated in urban and peri-urban blocks and lower values in the western and tribal-dominated areas. Gender disparities in literacy had persisted, though the gap had been narrower in urban areas. Statistical analysis had revealed a positive correlation (r = 0.68, p&lt; 0.01) between population density and literacy rate, suggesting that densely populated areas had better access to educational facilities and socio-economic opportunities. Spatial mapping had highlighted the influence of economic activities, infrastructure, and social factors in shaping literacy patterns. The study had concluded that targeted policy interventions in low-density, disadvantaged areas were essential to achieve balanced educational development in the district.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Keywords:<\/strong> Population Distribution, Literacy Rate, Gender Gap, Spatial Analysis, Socio-Economic Factors, Bankura District, Census 2011.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-vivid-red-color has-text-color\"><strong>Page No: 97-106<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-ast-global-color-6-background-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/bijmrd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/97-106.pdf\">download journal<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Author: Saroj Laha DOI Link: https:\/\/doi.org\/10.70798\/Bijmrd\/03080014 Abstract: The study had examined the spatial relationship between population distribution and literacy levels in Bankura district, West Bengal, India, using Census 2011 data and government statistics.
