ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Prof. (Dr.) Girindra Kumar a graduate from Patna University with Geography Honors obtained his Master's Degree from the same University in 1971. He had been an ICSSR Fellow between 1974 and 1976. He was appointed as a teaching faculty to Fazl Ali College by Govt. of Nagaland in April of 1976. His seminal research on assessment of Resource Associations and potentials of development at meso and micro physico-administrative regions qualified him for the award of Ph. D. Degree by Patna University in 1983. He then joined North Eastern Hill University as lecturer to Pachchunga University College, an under graduate College at Aizawl, Mizoram. And when Mizoram Central University was established by an Act of Parliament in 2001 and in which Department of Geography and Resource Management was opened in 2003 Prof. Kumar was appointed as its first regular Head in 2004. He oversaw the establishment and flourishing of a dynamic subject that Geography is. During almost 12 years of his association with Post Graduate Department he has been instrumental in furnishing the Department with modern equipment and remote sensing facilities. He also helped in developing collaboration with ISRO and many other national and International institutions and organizations. He has over 40 publications in national and international journals to his credit. His earlier two books Urbanization in Mizoram: Retrospect and Prospects (edited); and Dynamics of Development and Planning have successfully caught the attention of the students, researchers and scholars.
He retired from active services of Mizoram University in August of 2016. Having a long and active association both with undergraduate and postgraduate students and realizing their difficulties in establishing the cause- effect relationship of phenomena affecting human survival he has attempted to present this book in the hope that it may help its users to explain geographical reality with supportive reasons.
