To ensure that these statistics are available to the users as soon as these are 'sifted and compiled, the District Cemm Handbook has been divided into three parts. This is the first part of the series, the Village and Town Directory, which mostly comprises non-Census data. We are deeply indebted to the State Government for their everwilIing and prompt help to m at all stages. The District Cen~us Handbooks are being published by us on their behalf. I wish to express my gratitude to Sri M. LaL Chief Secretary to U,P. Government, for all the guidance and facilities affor­ ded to us in the conduct of Census in this State. I am also grateful to Sri P. C. Pandey, Secretary, G· A. D. (Now Commissioner, Rohilkhand Division, Bareilly) and his successor, Sri A. P. Dixit, for the facilities given by them in sorting out various adminhtrative matters relating to the publication of these Handbooks. I am extremely thankful to the District Officers for their whole-hearted co-opera­ tion in furnishing the desired information and the Di ;trict Census Officers for their hard work and sustained efforts iu collecting the same. The programme for the printing of District Census Handbooks has been heavy indeed, more so as three parts are being pub lished, one in Hindi and two in English. The arrangements made by Sri A. Dar, Superiutendent, Prillting and Stationery, U. P., Allahabad for the printing of these volumes, are thankfully acknowledged. Joint Superintendent, Sri J. S. Gupta, llc New Government Press, Aishbagh, Lucknow has also been extremely helpful 'in bringing out the maps. In the Census Office, everyone has done something for this stupendous task of compilation and collation of statistics, preparation of notes and reading of proofs, I am grateful to Sri K. S. Sinha, Deputy Director, Headquarters, the Tabulation Officer and other staff of the Technical Section, who have shared the burden and helped in bringing out these Handbooks. I must also express my gratitude to Sri A.Chandrasekhar, Registrar General, India, Sri K. D. Ballal and Dr. B. K. Roy Burman, Deputy Registrars General and Sri K. K· Chakravorty. Central Tabulation Officer for their constant help and guidance despite their own heavy preoccupations. Lucknow D. M.SINHA Dated: October 3, 1972. Director of Census Operations, Uttar Pradesh. INTRODUCTORY NOTE 1. History of District Census Handbook. It has been customary to bring out vital statistics at most of the Censuses. A list showing the population of villages in each district was published after the 1891 Census. Such iDrormation was, however, not brought out in 1901. Village Directories 'Were prepared for all districts in 1911, but could be published only for thirteen due to the outbreak of the First World War. At the 1921 Census, these were published for all districts in the form I of District Census Statistics. In 1931 villagewise statistics were compiled but could not be published .owing to financial stringency, resulting in loss of valuable data. At the 1941 Census, restricted tabulation was undertaken in the wake of the Second World War, but the utility .of Census statistics was rccc)gnised and these were published. The District Census ,Handbook in its present form was brought out at the 1951 Census, and wa~ publi­ shed alongwith another volume titled DistriCt Population Statistics. In 1961 Census, /att­ empts were made to render the District Census Handbook more informatIve, as in addition to Census data pertaining to each village, data about its level of deve10ment and ameni­ ties were also collected, At the 1971 Census, efforts have been made to compile both Census and non-Census statistics at village/town level in a uniform manner with an enlarged scope. As the District Census Handbook makes Census statistics available for the smaller territorial units, it is constantly referred to for several purposes of administration, demar­ cation of electoral constituencies, planning the development and so on. To ensure that these statistics are available to the users early, the District Census Handbook has been divided for being published separately into three parts: Part A : Town and Village Directory Part B : Village and Town-wise Primary Census Abstract Part C : Analytical Report and Administrative Statement-District Census Tables. 2. Scope of District Census Handbook. Part A of the Har:dbook comprises the Town and Village Directory. In village Direc­ .ory, particulars of amenities in regard to Education, Mecllcal, Power supply, drinking water supply, Post and telegraph and Communications have been given. Besides, it con­ tains land-use statistics, days of weekly markets and places of religious, historical or archa­ eological interest in each village. The Town Directory comprising seven statements throws light on the status of the town, its origin, growth of population, functional category, location and physical aspects, Municipal finances, Civic and other amenities, Medical and Educational facilities and statistics pertaining to Trade, Commerce, Industry and Banking. Apart from these, it also gives the distribution of population of the town by Religion and Scheduled Castes/Scheduled Tribes. Part B represents data down to village level for rural area and block level for towns. It contains the Primary Census Abstract which incorporates figures of area, number of ~ccupied residential houses and households, total population and its break-up by sex, ( iv ) scheduled caste dnd scheduled tribe, literate population, working population by nille broad industrial categories of cultivators, agricultural labourers, workl!rs engaged in forestry and livestock etc., in mining and quarrying, in manufacture or repair. in construc­ tion, in trade and commerce, in transport and communications and in other services as well as the non-working population. Part C deals with the administrative stati~tics pertaining to the district in all fields of development. The Census tables pertaining to language, religion, migration and economic activities are being reproduced in this part. A write up indicating changes in socio-economic and demographic characteristics of the district during the last decade is also being included in it. 3. Town Directory given in Part A presents data for all the Census towns of the district. There is no uniformly accepted definition of a town. The historical, poli­ tical, cultural and administrative considerations are generally taken as criteria for rural­ urban classification. An urban area, in contradistinction to the rural, comprises a large majority of inhabitants who are engaged in industrial and' non-agricultural activities. In addition to its size, population and occupational characteristics, an urban area pro­ vides such facilities as transportation, banking, commercial and technical services, com­ munity facilities and other civic services. According to the State Government, all Muni­ cipal Corporations, Municipal Boards, Cantonment Boards, Notified Areas aJ?d Town Areas are considered as town, and according to thier average annual income from thcir own resources, these have been classified into different classes of local oodies. The Criteria adopted under the Census Operations is slightly different from the State Government.
