Some of the Principal States now merged in Rn,j!Lsthan published their own reports. This time the State Oensus Reports have been published in the following volumes ;- 1. Part I-A Report. 2. Part I-B Subsidiary Tables and DiRtrict Index of Non-Agricultural Occupation s. 8. Part I-C: Appondices. 4. Pm·t II-A. GeneraJ Population Tables, Household f1ml Age (Sample) rrabteR, Social and Oultural 'rabies, Tab!e E Summary Figllres by Aclminlstmtive Units, and local 'RA' infirmities. 5. Part II-B Economic Tables. rrhey contain stfttistictl tlown to the district level. The iden, of preparing the District Oensus Hn,ndbook separately for each district was put forward by Shri R. A. Gopalaswami, 1. O. S., Registrar General, India, and ex-Officio Oensus Commissioner of India, as part of a plan intended to secnre an effective method of preserving the census records prepared for are:1S below the district level. He proposed that all the district census tables and census abstmcts prepared during the process of sorting and compilation should be bound together in n, single manuscript volume, called the District Census Handbook, and suggested to the State Governments that the handbook (with or without the addition of other useful inform:1tion relating to the district) should be printed nnd published, at their own cost, in the same manner as the village statistics in the past. In accepting this suggestion, the Government of Hajasthan decided to print and publish the more impol't::tnt portion of statistical dn,ta rolating to the diRtrict and to preserve the rest of the records in a manuscript yolumo for any future use, to which tbey may be put. 'J.1bis Handbook contains fi ve Gellel'~tl Population TAlbles of A Series, three Economic rrables of B Series, five Household and Age rrables of C Series, seven Soci:11 alld Cultnl':11 T\Lbles of D Series, one table E giving summn,ry for the uistl'ict and tehRils, a local table 'KA' showing infirmities by age groups and an Index of Non-agricultnml Occupations. Each table contains an explanfttory note necessary for the proper understanding of the figures. The numbers given to the tables in this Hanc1book COl'j'('\sponc1 to thoso givpn in State Cemms Reports. Village Directories \yore published for the first time in 1$)31 by :t, few Statrs of Hajputana. rrhe example was followed by all the States in 1 D4l. They contained for each village the population figure8 by religion and also some other useful iuformn,tioll. rrhey were bound in a volume one for each Stitte. 'J.1his time the Village Directoriefl are n,lso incorporated in this Handbook nnder the name of" Primary Oensus Abstract an(l Village Directory" which show the basic population figures separately for each village or towll-vmrd classified by livclihoou classes instead of religion and :11so some information of general nature. Opportunity has been taken to put ill a short introductory note detailing the salient pOl~ts eonnected with the district, snch as the physical features, Clilll:1to, rainfn,ll, irri­ gatlOn and drainage facilities, roads and other communications, n,gricllltUl'e, education, ~ndustries and other matters of general interest. The info1'll1rttion contained in the lIltl'oductory note is based on the material furnished by Collectors of districts and Depart­ ments of Government. In addition to the abo\·e, some figures of general iuterest a,lld a reviC'w of population figures havo also been incorporated. 11 The scheduled date for the publicfltion of the Handbo()ks ns prescribed by the Registmr General, India, was," Not Intel' than .March, bJ52" but praetical experience showed its publica.tion by that time an impracticnbility. Even the compilation of the tables together with its final touch could not be completed by that time. ffhen came the queation of printing which proved to be a huge task. rfhere are 25 districts jn Rftjasthan and 1 ill Ajtner. ffho totalllnmber of printed pages turned out to be nearly 9000. The Go~ernrnent Presses were already over burdoned with the printing work of other depart-. ments and in the printing of cep-sus publications priority was given to Central Govern­ ment Publications i.e the State Oenslls lteports. 'rhe result WitS that till March, 1954, for 14 out of '26 districts the P. C. A. and Village Directory could not be printed specially bec9,use the press h~tcl no stock of slllall type which was essential for their printing. It was, therefore, decided to publish the handbooks in two volumes. Part I, consists of introduction, a brief review of population figmes and, (1) Gelleral population rrables ( A-I to A-V. ) (2) Economic r_rables ( B·I to B-llI ) (3) Household and Age ( Snmple ) rrables ( (J·l to C-V ) (/1) Socia'! and Cnltnml rrablCf; (, D-I to DMVII ) (G) E-Summary fignres by Adlllinistmti \'0 11 nib" (0) Local Table' K.A ' infirmities, and (7) District Index of Non·Agricultund Occupa.tions. Part II conta.ins only Primary Census Abstracts aHd Villngc DircctoJ'Y. The Handbooks of the Ajmer, Sil'ohi and Jha)a\V3,l' Districts are, however, being published in one volume because thoy have heen completod by tbis time. vVbile every care has been taken to ensure the correctness of figures and village names, certn.in mistakes might have erept in. I Rhn,ll h8 grn.tdul if they are brougbt to my notine. Y. L. DASHORA. JODHPUR DISTRICT. Nol'B :-Tbis h&nd-book gives an account of Jodbpur District as it existed on Mal'ch I, 1951.

  • CRAFT and TRADE in the 18Th CENTURY RAJASTHAN
    CRAFT AND TRADE IN THE 18th CENTURY RAJASTHAN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE AWARD OF THE DEGREE OF Boctor of ^l)ilos;opl)p IN )/er HISTORY ! SO I A. // XATHAR HUSSAIN -- .A Under the Supervision of Prof. B. L. Bhadani Chairman & Coordinator CENTRE OF ADVANCED STUDY DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH (INDIA) 2008 ^Ci>Musu m ABSTRACT The study on the 18* century has been attracting the attention of the historians such as Richard Bamett, C.A. Bayly, Muzaffar Alam, Andre Wink, Chetan Singh and others. Two subsequent works on the eastern Rajasthan by S.P. Gupta and Dilbagh Singh and on the northern Rajasthan by G.S.L. Devra have added new dimensions to the whole issue of existing debate on the 18' century, a period of transition in the history of India. Therefore, the importance of the studies on Rajasthan assumes significance which contains a treasure house of archival records, hitherto largely unexplored. My work is consisted of eight chapters with an introduction and conclusion. The first chapter deals with the study of geographical and historical profile of the Rajasthan. The geographical factor such as types of soils, hills, river and vegetation always nourishes the economy of the region. The physical location of Rajasthan had influenced its history to a greater extent. The region bears the physical diversity and we can divide it into two parts namely in the fertile south eastern zone and the thar arid zone. It was bounded by the Mughal subas (provinces) like Multan, Sindh, Delhi, Agra, Gujarat and Malwa.

    India Western: Desert Specials 17th January to 29th January 2021 (13 days) Forest Owlet Extension 29th January to 31st January 2021 (4 days) Demoiselle Cranes by David Shackelford The wonderfully diverse nation of India is well-known for its verdant landscapes and the snow-capped Himalayas. It therefore surprises many people to learn that India is also blessed with some incredible deserts, and our tour showcases this much-underrated habitat by exploring some of India’s less RBL India - Western Desert Specials and Forest Owlet Extension Itinerary 2 frequented parks and reserves in the county’s dry, western parts. Desert National Park, Tal Chappar and the Great and Little Ranns of Kutch are amongst the most important of the protected areas of western India and we will visit all of them. We will also pay a visit to the more verdant Mt Abu along with an extension to the deciduous forests of Tansa Reserve. Along the way we are going to see some of the most threatened and rare birds not only of India but of the whole world. Species we are searching for include the Great Indian Bustard which sadly teeters on the brink of extinction, the almost equally rare White-browed Bush Chat, along with Indian Spotted Creeper, Yellow-eyed Pigeon, Green Avadavat, Sociable Lapwing, Macqueen’s Bustard, White-naped Tit, Marshall’s Iora, and for those doing the extension the recently rediscovered Forest Owlet. We also stand a great chance at picking up two of the more difficult monotypic families in the world, namely Crab-Plover and Grey Hypocolius.
