Goud Saraswat Brahmins of Cochin - Population

Population

In the absence of reliable census data, it is difficult to ascertain the number of Cochin GSBs. The census reports from early 20th century conducted by Cochin and Travancore princely states give a combine figure of approximately 14,500. The population of these geographies have increased fivefold now. Assuming the GSB population grew at the same rate, a figure of 70,000 may be an extrapolated.

Cheralai area of Ernakulam city, Downtown Ernakulam, Allapuzha Anandanarayanapuram, chertala (muttam), Thuravoor, Kayamkulam, Kollam, and downtown Ernakulam, North Parur, Varapuzha, Cherai, Vypeen, TRIPUNITHURA (PURNAVEDAPURI),Kottayam and Ettumanoor are the some of the areas one finds significant GSB population.

Famous quotes containing the word population:

    A multitude of little superfluous precautions engender here a population of deputies and sub-officials, each of whom acquits himself with an air of importance and a rigorous precision, which seemed to say, though everything is done with much silence, “Make way, I am one of the members of the grand machine of state.”
    Marquis De Custine (1790–1857)

    We in the West do not refrain from childbirth because we are concerned about the population explosion or because we feel we cannot afford children, but because we do not like children.
    Germaine Greer (b. 1939)
