The development planning in India has been started from First five year plan in 1951. There was focused on the agriculture. Later on, Industries, education, poverty, unemployment and health etc. all the sectors have been touched. Today, there is going on 12th five year plan. But, it is an illusively higher truth that even with the introduction of a number and varied development programs in India, the country in general and backward areas in particular, have not tasted the fruits of development as yet due to serious reasons (Purohit, 1986). The mountains are not good at the flat land conditions which do not attract more to the agricultural and industrial developments. There are 70.64% of marginal land holder out of total holdings and 17.77% of small land holder out of total holdings (Mittal, 2008). So we need to utilize the agricultural field very carefully. Thus, rural out-migration is dominant in Uttarakhand due to the negative relationship between population and regional development (Bhandari, 2007).Therefore, the figure of socio-economic structure is carried out and the study area is characterized by different developmental zones in this paper.
