PRINTED AND PUBLISHED BY TBE nmEC7'OR OF STATIONERY AlfD PRINTING, MADRAS 1964 PREFACE

It has been the policy of the Government of Madras to print and publish village statistics based on the information collected during each Census. In 1951, the Government of India offered to hand over to the State Government the Census Tables and abstracts pre pared during Census and suggested that they might be prin~ed and published along with any other useful information relating to each district. The form of the District Census Handbook was thus conceived. The State Government accepted the idea and a publication was brought out at the cost of the State Government. Each District Census Handbook consisted of two parts-·Part I containing three secticns, viz., General Population Tables, Economic Tables, Tables I, II and III of Small·Scale Industries, Summary figures of district and taluks, rural and urban statistics and Part n containing C and 0 series, viz., House .. hold and Age Tables and Social and Cultural Tables and District Occupational Abstract.

A Distr~ct Census Handbook was published for each district. It has been· considered an important achievement of the last Census. Sri A. Mitra, Registrar­ General, India, decided not on Iy to continue the series during 1961, but t<>: improve definitely on its content, so that each District Census' Handbook woutd contain basic economic data for the smallest administration unit in the district and be a useful reference book for schc.lars, Centra~ and State Governments, local Bodies and private institutions. The proposal of Vol idening the scope of the Census Handbook was accepted by the State Government in their G.O. Ms. No. 154, Public (Elections-II), dated the 31 st January 1961. It was also decided to publish it at the cost of the State Government,

The first District Census Handbook is on and is contained in this volume. It contains an introductory essay on all important aspects of the district, physical features, history, people and their social condition, agriculture, industries, public health, education, irrigation, electricity and other allied topiCS. Fourteen maps have been published; nine of thEm on each individual taluk and five on different aspects of the district. It contains "A" Series Tables, " B" Series, u C tt Series, SCT for each taluk, : C 1and ST I, and II. Seventy-two statements of administrative statistics classified under seven sections have been Included In this District Census Handbook.

I. Agriculture and IrrIgation. 2. Industry and labour. 3. Ed ucation. 4. Public Health. S. Law and Order. 6. Communications. 7. Miscellaneous. Ii

A new feature of the District Census Handbook is the village Directory which replaced the rural statistics included in the previous Census series. An abstract giving a complete list of all villages and towns in each taluk in the district along with the distribution of population by sex and various categories of workers has been added. It also gives an account of the basic amenities available in each vilfage such as educational, medical, irrigational, posts and telegraphs, communication and electrification. A villagewise list of industries classified according to the Indian Standard Industrial Classification COd2 and the tot~1 number of units in the different types of industry for each village, a list of fairs and festivals, an alpha­ betica' Ust of viUages a\ong with their corresponding Census location code number and a statement showing the type of soil and type of terrain, sources of irrigation, important wet and dry crops and value of such lands will also be found in this ·volume. These books contain the following interesting items :-

I. Gazetteer of place names.

2. Calendar of outstanding occurrences that have infl uenced the district.

It has been also my endeavour to include in this volume all items of infor .. ·mation collected by the Census Organisation in the course of the special studies undertaken during 1961 Census. Though the publication will be issued by the 'Government of Madras, the views expressed in the volume are personal and do .not bind the Government. This volume containing a variety of information relating to will, I hope, be useful to the general public.

In keeping with the policy of the Government to make Tamil the language of administration, the Government of Madras have decided to issue an abridged' edition of District Census Handbook in Tamil. This abridgement will be done by the State Government, but they have kindly agreed to show it to me for comments before publication.

In preparing this volume~ I have been assisted by a large number of my staff. SpeCial mention should be made of Sri T. B. Bharati and Sri K. C. Narayana Kurup, ~y Deputy Superintendents, who have assisted me in compiling and test-checking the .material pieced together in this' volume. I am also grateful .to Sri Asok Mitra, I.C.S., Census Commissioner of India for having made it possible to conceive of a volume like this for publication in connection with the 196'­ 'Census.

GENERAL POPULATION TABLES (A-SERIES)

A-I-AREA, HOUSES AND POPULATION

FLY LEAF rhis is the basic population table. It presents data for taluks, town-groups and towns . by rural urban break-up regarding the area in square miles and square km. ; density per square mile; number of inhabited a.nd uninhabited villages and towns; number of oocupied residential houses and population by sex.

Urban area.-In 1961, a more precise definition of urban area was attempted. All municipalities, cantonments and townships were deemed to ha.ve urban characteristics and declared as towns. For other area.s, three tests were applied.

(1) The population of the area shQuld be not less than 5,000, (2) Seventy-five per cent of the male population should depend on non-agricultural resources fol' their livelihood; and (3) There should be a density of 1,000 persons per square mile.

All places which satisfied these three oonditions were declared as urban. All those places which satisfied two of the three oonditions enumerated above and whioh in the opinion of the Collector of the district had urban characteristics were also declared as urban. This applied chiefly to newly founded industrial areas, large housing settlements, places of tourist importanoe with all civio amenities, areas surrounding the municipal or cantonment limits but outside their jurisdiction and having definite urban features.

The change in the concept of urban areas has resulted in the inclusion of the following new towns in this district:-

500 999 5,000 9,999

1,000 1,999 10,000 and above

The total number of inhabited villages in the district is 987 and a rural population of 2,525,302 persons are found to live in these villages. The average village population of the district is 2,815. The same for taluks are given below in descending order;-

Dharapufam 3,657 Erode 2,207

Gopichettipalaytml 3,232 Pollachi 1,978 Avanashi .. 2,861

The number of villages with less than 200 persons are found to be uniformly low in all taluks. The maximum number of such villages noticed is seven (7) in Avanashi taluk. Bhavani and Dharapuram taluks do not have any village of this size. The number of villages with a population of 10,000 and above is also very small. Dharapur~m taluk ranks foremost with four such villages while Udumalpet, -Avanalhi and Erode do not have even one village coming under this category.

Majority of the rural population in the district are found to live in villages of 2,000 and less than 5,000 category. The number of such villages total to 395 in the district of which 61 are in Palladam taluk and 60 in Erode. Bhavani has only 21 villages belonging to this group. Villages of 1,000 and less than 2,000 population size is next in importance and their number is 213 in the district. Fifty-one villages of this category are found in Pollachi while Coimbatore has only 5 under this category.

Considering the percentage of rural population living in these villages we will find that villages of 2,000 and less than 5,000 size are most important for 50'66 per cent of total rural population are found to live in these villages. The percentage of persons living in villages with population of 5,000 and less than 10,000 is 27'87 while the popUlation living 0-12 90 in villages with population 1,000 to 2,999 is 12'38 per cont. The statement bolow will show the percenta.ge of rural population living in vil1age~ of various population sizes in the district.

This also gives jnformation on population of these towns/town~ groups and their variation during the last three Censuses, 1941-61.

The concept of town-group has been newly introduced during this Census. Towns which are either contiguous or near each other having separate legally constituted civic administration like Municipality, Panchayat, Cantonment or a Township have been grouped together to form a town~group which will serve· as a unit for statistical purposes. Three such town-groups exist in the district and they are the Bhavani Town-group, the Kurich, Town-group and the Anamalai Town-group_ These towns and town-groups have been grouped into six classes according to their population as shown below :-

Clas~ Population Cl"ss Population I lO(),OOO and above IV 10,000 to 19,999 II 50,000 to 99,999 V 5,000 to 9,999 III 20,000 to 49,999 VI Up to 5,000

I ncrease in the number of :f.1owns.-The number of towns excluding town-groups has gone up considerably when compared to the position in 1941 or even in 1951. The total number of towns under all cla.sses was only 19 in 194:1 but this was recorded to be 34: durin~ 1961. It would be more useful to see the inorease in the population livjng In these towns. The percentage of population in towns (excluding town-groups) to total district popUlation is given below:- Year Percentage 1961 .. 29·01 1951 •• 20'II 1941 ... 14·96

It is evident from the above figures that there has boen a gradual but quite definite increase in the population in these towns. Ohanges in the classification of Towns.-With the passage. of time and increase in population changes have oocurred in the classification of towns and town-groups ..

. Percentage of population in each cla.ss to total urban population-The percentage of population in each class of town (excluding town-groups) has undergori9 considerable variation since 1941. The percentage of population in Class II town8 or towns with a population of 50,000 to 99,999 is most remarkable. During 1941, there existed no town belonglng to this ca tegory at all. In spite of the fact that only four towns of this grade exist in the district nearly 28 per cent of the total urban population is found conCBnt­ . rated under the group. Though the number of towns ill Class III has been on the increase there has been a, decrease in the percentage of urban population living in these towns. This is evident from the table below. The percentage of urban population living in Class I, Class IV and Class V towns does not show any consistent trend either for increase or decrease. 1951 recorded a higher percentage in the case of the first two groups while in the' case of the last, there was a remarkable decrease in the percentage. On the other haJld, the 1961 Census has recorded a. reverse change in these cases. Class I and Cla.ss III towns recorded a decrease in the percentage of their population to total urban population of the district but Clas8 IV towns recorded an increase when oompa.red to their position in 1951 :-

Density of population per square mile in different claases oj towna-The d6D.Sity of population per square mile is notiood to be qUite heavy in Class I towns and also in towns of HI category. In towns of popula.tion Up to 5,000 the density is very mea.gre. It is ai low as 951 per square mile while in Class I town it is recorded to be 32,314 per square mile.

An employer is one who employs other persons for wages or salary to get any work done, who thus will be responsible not only for his own work but also for the work of others under him. But a person employing domestic servants or a person in office who himself is employed but who has the power to appoint subordinates, is not an employer. The person who works by himself,neither employing except casually, nor being employed, is a single worker. But the person who works in joint partnership, without hiring any employee is also.8, single worker. A person who is engaged in any business or trade conducted mainly by the members of the family, ordinarily at least for an hour every day during the working season, without receiving any wages or salary, is a" Family worker ".

Division 8 which deals with Services of Government, educational, health, religious, legal, and business services has the largest number of male and female workers both In rural and urban areas. The proportion of male single workers in a division to the total workers of the division is highest in 8th Division in the rural area and in the 4th Division in the urban area. Among female workers the corresponding highest propor­ tion is in Division 8 in rural area and in Division 6 in urban area.

:FLY LEAF This table presents the cross tabulated data of persons having .primary work and subsidiary work. The data are furnished in the case of persons whose principal and secondary work are any two of the three categories of cultivation, agricultural labour and household industry. The principal work relating to Household Industry alone has been classified by industrial divisions and major groups. But the classification npto divisions only have been presented in this table.

The work on which a person spends most of his working tim.e has belm considered as the principal or primary work. In the case of persons having more than two occupa­ tions, the secondary work recorded a.lso was decided on the basis of the tune spent in a particular subsidiary work among other subsidiary works.

It will be of interest to note that in the rural areaB of this district near]y ~6,OO() lllales and 17,000 fema1es who are primarily engaged as oultiyators have agricultural labour as subsidiary work. The number of cultivators having Housebold Industry as secondary work in the rural areas is six times more in the case of ma.le workers. and ten times more in the case of female workers as compared to those in the urban area, In urban areas the percentage of cultivators having agricultural labour as seoondary work is eonsider~blew 195

The non-workers have been divided into 8 groups, out of which data in this table have been furnished for two groups, na.mely, persons seeking employment for the first time and persons employed before but now out of employment and sooking employment. These two groups put, together form the unemployed persons. The data. have been cla.ssified by a.ge-groups ~nd by educational levels and the educational levels are the same as those in B-UI Pa.rt-A\. For the persons seeking employment, the age-groups adopted are five, viz., 15-19, 20-24, 25-29, 30-34 a.nd 35 and above and for the persons once employed and now seeking employment, six, viz., 15-19, 20-24, 25-34, 35-44, 45-59 and 60 and above.

The unemployed in the urban are~ constitute 3'7 per cent of the non-working population of the age of 15 and above. It is significant to note that even in the age­ group of 30-34:, there are 281 m~les seeking employment for the first time and nearly half of them are literates who do not have any educational attainments to their credit. They might have migrated from rural areas in search of employment. Among the persons once employed and now out of employment women are only few and among the ma.les slightly more tha.n one·fourh of such persons lbelong to the age-group of 25-34. Both among the total males employed once and now seeking work and among sneh males of age-group of 25-34, one-third are litera-tas without eduoationallevel and another one-third are litera.tes who' have Primary or Junior Basic educational standard. MOlt of them mutt have worked as labourers in tempora.ry jobs.

This table presents data on non-workers classified by eight groups, based on the nature of their activity, and by four age-groups of 0-14, ·15-34, 35-,-59 and 60 +. 'The names of 2 groups have been already stated in the table B VIII. The other six groups of non .. workers are: (1) Full time students and children attending school, (2) Persons engaged in household duties, (3) Dependents, infants and children not attending :S ch60 I, (4) Rethed persons and persons of independent means, (5) Beggars, vagrants, -etc., and (6) Inmates of penal, mental and charitable institutions .

._. ". III the rural area 31'5 per cent of ma.les . of 0-14 age group are full~time students, whereas in the urban area 44-4 per cent are full-time students and among females the difference of proportions is greater for 14'8 per cent of 0-14 females only aTe students in rural area while 35'1 per cent are students in urban area. The difference is still greatly prominent in the case of number of female students in the age group of 15-34. Only 1-9 per cent of females of this age-group are run-time students in rural area, whereas 5'4 "per cent of females of thiE age group are st~dellts in urban area.

The second group of non-worker@, namely, 'Household duties' was defined as to include 'person engaged in unpaid household chores, housewives and adult women who do no other work such as making articles at home for sale or wages and who do not ·even help in fami1y cultivation, household industry, trade or business': Though normally mostly females will come under this group, good number of males have also been recorded and the highest has been recorded only in this district. While not a single male has been recorded in this category in the urban area, in the rural area.~ 1l,566 males have -been recorded and out of it 7,236 are in Pollachi ts.luk alone. The number of males recorded in Pollachi taluk under this group of non-workers amounts to 62' 7 per cent of the total male non-workers recorded in this taluk. 77 per cent of the males recorded in this group in rural &rea, and 91'3 per cent of the males recorded in Pollachi taluk rural area -belong to 0-14 age group. The most plausible explanation for suoh high figures parte' cularly in a single taluk and partlc.ularly in this 'group is only that children who neither -attend school nor assist their pa.rents i£ field work, but who do housf}hold duties like ge'tting waMt from the' well, gettitlg things ftom the shop, taking lonch to family members from home to the field as per their parents instructions, must have been noted by the ,-enumerators a~ 'HW' whioh was the abbreviation authorised to be used for personR .·engaged in household duties. It can be seen from the definition of ;Household duties' that the first part of the definition does not exclude males being included in this category. as it states, 'any person· engaged in unpa.id household chores'. Even older persons who do . some odd job or other for the family like going to market, etc., might have been included in this group. In rural areas it is also common to describe the work of a person engaged as a servant in the landlord's house as HVeettu Velai" and the enumerators might have included all persons answering in the above manner under this group. This explains the figures found in the older-age~groups.

There are more males in urban area under the group of beggars and vagrants than .in rural area and more females in rural area than in urban area. In both areas on~-thild ·1)f the persons in this group are of the age-gfdup of 35-59. . .. !O8

(Such tenants may have the right of transfer also in certain cases.) (ii) Tenants who have been given permanent right subject to the right of resump­ tion by the owner (in some cases, the tenant has the right to acquire ownership. In other cases he does not possess this right.)

(iii) Tenants holding land in areas where interim measure have been enacted for the stay of ejectment or for continuing the leases for a speoified period. (iv) Tenants holding land under temporary leases who are liable to eviction. (v) Areas held on condition of rendering service either to a village, community or to the Government as in the case of service inams. (This also includes cases where labourers working on plantations are given bits of land for personal cultivation with permanent rights.)

(vi) All lands taken for a fixed amount of money or a fixed amount of produce 01 a share of the produce or for which money ~is paid partly in kind and partly in shape of cash and land held free of consideration. C-29A 228

Category (iii)-If the household had land cultivated under the above two oa.tegories, . it is ol&ssifi6d under Category (iii).

The holdings a.re grouped into ten sizes in acres as follows:- Less than one acre 10'0-12'4 acres 1'0-2'4 acres 12-5-14-9 acres 2'5-4'9 acres 15'0-29-9 acres 5'0-7'4 aores 30'0-49'9 aores 7'5-9'9 aores 50 and above and UD.lpecified
