The. Provisional Populalion Totals of Madhya Pradesh hilVe already been announced ~nd pubhsh~ on the 23rd March, 198 L in 'the shape of Paper 1 of 1981. In that Paper figures. relatmg to t?e total population, sex-wise break up, density, distribution, growth rate, hteracy and lIteracy rates have been presented down to the district level. Also presented in that Paper was sex-break up, sex-ralio, literacy and literacy rate by sex for towns having population of 1 L~ and above. . .
In the present Paper which is being brought out as supplement to Paper 1 of 1981, these other population characteristics based on the 1981 Census provisjonal figures are being published. AlsO' published are the population and growth-rate of all towns of thi:: State. Since this is going to be the only publication for data-users for quite some time to come, the rural and urban composition of population and growth-rate i~ being pre sented down to the tahsil level. As was done in Paper 1 of 1981, a few detailed maps and charts are also being presented. The objective of the Paper 1 was to ma1ce avail ahle to the Government and the public certain basic figures of the population s1,ch as total population and its distribution, growth-rate, sex ratio and literacy rate almost immediately after the Census enumeration was completed. Obviously that compilation could noit cover certain other important chanlcteristics relatiul:! to urbanization and parti cipation rates.
As tIle hUe of the Paper itself suggests, these figures are purely provisional com piled from the abstracts collected quickly from the field. It may he observed that there have bee'll some minor changes . in the tentatlive figures herein presented from those reported in Paper 1 of 1981. This has been so because of detection of some totalling mIstakes in the abstracts sent by the district officers and the charge officers. These few minor computational errors have been rectified but it may be remembered that the figures herein presented are again subject to. final confirmation after the editing and tabulatiOon Oof data from the individual census schedule.
To Shri P. Padmanabha, Censll'; Commissioner :And Registrar General, India, we in the Census Organisation are deeply beholden for being always ready to help us in our difficulties and for enabling us to see our way thrOough the myriad-faceted maze that the Census appears to be. Owing tOo the fact that Shri V. P. Pandey, Deputy Registrar Ge!'cral, W<1'. ah;;:IY~ helpful to us, ,;e hardly had any difflc,_,lty in the ceceip+ of ('emu') material and in administrative matters to him, our grateful thanks. I am grateful to Shri K. K. Chakravody, Deputy Registrar General (Census) who readily came to our rescue whenever we got stuck up in technical matters.
In the preparation of this Paper I have received assistance from my oolleagues at the Headquarters and I am thankful to them. I am particularly indebted to Shri M. L. Sharma, Depuly Director, Shri M. S. Sinha, Deputy Director, Sbri M. G. Mohri!, Shri V. S. Joshi, Investigators, Sl'I.IVshri Vishram Sing!;. N. P. S~arma al1d Mohd. Israil, Tabulation Officers and Sarvshri S. B. Karandikar, J. F. D'souza and S. C. Sood, Statisti cal Assistants. This small team sat for long hours and not only carried On the compila tion of figures presented in this Paper but also saw this Paper through the Press. Shri K. C. S. Bhagbati, Senior Geographer and his cartographic team consisting ~f Sarvshri K. M. Dhawle, Cartographer, M. P. Soni, V. S. Bahad, Draftsman, Manglanl, Hotu, Computor and Smt. N. C. Mariamma, Draftsman have prepared the maps anrl charts and I am thankful to them. Arduous typing has been done by Sarvshri P. P. R. Nair, my Senior Stenographer, V. P. Bakre, V. R. Nagwani and T. Varandani, Compu tors. Both before and after enumeration, printing is an important matter for the Census. We in the Madhya Pradesh Census Directorate were fortunate in receiving whole-hearted 4 cooperation from the State Government llress. I should, therefore, thank Shri S. M. Deo and Shri A. S. Kale who during their term as Controller of Printing and Stationery extended their helping hand. I am partkularly ~hankful to Shri B. L. Rao, Assistant Controller who was very helpful.
In this Paper which is the second instalment of the massive array of 1981 Census figures to be released, the reader will find a background nole explaining the various concepts and analytical note where attempt has been made to analyse the population characteristics revealed through provisional figures. It may be sfated in all humility that this publication is being brought out within six weeks of the declaration of the pro visional population totals of the State:. Immediately after that further compilation of data for being presented in lhis Paper was taken in hand and there was hardly any time to stand and stare. It is humbly conceded that ~he analysis herein presented has been made as it appears prima facie. There was no time at all to make any attempt for fur ther investigations on the various aspects revealed by the data. In the analytical note directions will be clearly discernible: in which further and deeper enquiries are called for to bring out a clear and total picture of the variegated popUlation of this heartland of India-MADHYA PRADESH.
