No such list was brought out in 1901. In 1911 Village Directories were prepared for all districts, but could be published orily for thirteen on account of the outbreak of the First World War. At the 1921 Census they were published for' all districts in the form of District Census Statistics. In 1931 they were compiled for all districts, but were not published owing t~ financial stringency, leading to loss of valuable -data. At the 1941 Census even though rest.ricted tabulation was undertaken on account of the Second World War, yet the utility of District Census Stat~stics was recognized and they were pub­ lished. At the Census of 1951 two volumes were brought out for each district­ the District Census Handbook and the District Population Statistics. Govern­ ment have decided to continue the publication of District Census Handbooks. The 1961 District Census Handbooks contain more data than ever published before. Village. Directories, besides giving the population of villages by industrial categories, also contain useful information about schools, hospitals, post offices, etc. As revised District Gazetteers are going to be published, introductory matter in the District Census Handbooks has been given in brief to avoid duplication. Information for the District Census Handbooks was collected mainly from thre~ sources viz., State Tabulation Office, District Officers, Heads of Depart­ ments and their district level officers. In all cases confirmation has been obtained from Heads of Departments concerned. I a.m extremely grateful to District I 'Officers and the various Heads of Departments for their wholehearted co- operation in f~rnishing the desired information. It is hoped that the District Census Handbooks will prove useful to the various Government departments and scholars. The printing of the Handbooks commenced from August, 1963. P. P.
