here is the controller the index controller works fine when I manually enter the data it fetches from the database here is the store controller and also it not validate the forms data , i am new i dont know how to do it

  public function store(Request $request)
    {
        $rules = array(
            'name'    => 'required',
            'district'=> 'required',
            'address' => 'required',
            'block'   => 'required|numeric',
            'Population'   => 'required|numeric',
        );
        $validator = Validator::make(Request::all(), $rules);
        if ($validator->fails()) {
            return Redirect::to('camp/create')
                ->withErrors($validator)
                ->withRequest(Request::except('password'));
        } else {
            // store
            $camp = new Camp;
            $camp->name       = Request::get('name');
            $camp->district      = Request::get('district');
            $camp->address = Request::get('address');
            $camp->block      = Request::get('block');
            $camp->population = Request::get('population');
            $camp->save();

            // redirect
            Session::flash('message', 'Successfully created Camp!');
            return view('camp\camps',['camps'=>$camps]);
        }
    }

You forgot to add parenthesis after Camp it should be like this:

$camp = new Camp();
$camp->name       = $request->name;
$camp->district   = $request->district;
$camp->save();
