There is an encouraging demand for Block level and District level Statistics for formulating suitable policies by the Central and State Government and for the planning purpose at micro level. Maintenance of Block / District level information are assuming importance in the context of planning. An encouraging shift is being made through the introduction of Block level planning to decentralize the planning process. It is to be made obligatory that all the Government agencies operating at Block / District level should spare a copy of the periodical reports to the Block / District Statistical Unit . In the long run these units become a purveyor of information generated in these areas. The District Statistical Hand Book 2016 – 17 is Twenty Seventh in the series. The main purpose of the present effort is to bring out a case for providing information (Data) at Block / District level. The Hand Book is revised to the extent possible. The information furnished in this Hand Book have been collected from Central and State Government Departments. The Datas furnished in this Book are widely used by needy whether it be an official or research organization.
