In the present study an attempt has been made to deal with the opportunity for natural selection among the Hmars (the lesser known tribe of India) of Churachandpur (Manipur) based on the differential fertility and mortality from 35 ever-pregnant women aged of 45 + years. The value of Im, If are 0.072 and 0.250. Observed that the I value is 0.379 indicates the selection is operating or reported moderate in the population.
