The District Census Handbook (DCH), compiled by the Census organisa tion on behalf of the State Governments, is one of the most valuable products of the Census. The DCH is constantly referred to by planners, adminis trators, academicians and researchers. It is inter alia used for delimitation of constituencies, formulating local level and regional plans and as an aid to District administration. The District Census Handbook is the only publication which provides Primary C(:nSus Abstract (PCA) data upto village level for rural areas and wardwise for each city or town. It also provides <fata on infrastructure and amenities in villages and towns, etc. The district census handbook series was initiated during the 1951 Census. It contained important tables and PCA for each village and town of the district. During 1961 Census the scope of the DCH was enlarged and it contained a descriptive account of the district, administrative statistics census tables and a village and town directory, including PCA. The 1971 DCH series was planned in three parts. Part-A related to village and town directory, Part-B to village and town PCA and Part-C comprised analytical report, administrative statistics, district census tables and certain analytical tables based on PCA and amenity data in respect of villages. However, in , some states it was confined to district census tables and in a few cases altogether given up due to delay in compilation and printing. While designing the format of 1981 DCH series some new features along with the restructuring of the format of village and town directory have been attempted. At the same time comparability with the 1971 data has also been kept in view. All the amenities except power supply in the village have been brought togetber in the village directory with the instruction that in case an' amenity is not available in the referrent village the distance in broad ranges from the nearest place where the amenity is available may be given. The restructuring of the format of the village directory and incorporating more exhaustive data on infrastructure aspect particularly in relation to amenities and land-use pattern is expected to further meet the need of micro level planning for rural areas.
