In the present study an attempt has been made to examine the spatial pattern of settlements in terms of growth, distribution, density, size, in term of area and population , concentration and spacing for understanding the existing position of the settlement system in the study area for the formulation of micro level diagnostic planning to achieved balanced regional development. To analysed the distribution and spatial variation of settlements, the standard statistical technique like Mather’s Model of Mean Spacing, Gini’s technique of Coefficient of Concentration has been used.
