FOREWORD

Publication of the District Census Handbooks (DCHs) was initiated after the 1951 Census and is continuing since then with some innovations/modifications after each decennial census. This is the most valuable district level publication brought out by the Census Organisation on behalf of each State Government! Union Territory administration. It inter-alia provides datal information on some ofthe basic demographic and socio-economic characteristics and on availability of certain important civic amenities/facilities in each village and town of the respective districts.' This publication has thus proved to be· of immense utility to the planners, administrators, academicians and researchers.

The scope of the DCH was initially confmed to certain important census tables on population, economic and socio-cultural aspects as also the Primary Census Abstract (PCA)of each village and town (wardwise) of the district. The DCHs published after the 1961 Census contained a descriptive account of the district, administrative statistics, census tables and Village and Town Directories, including PCA. After the 1971 Census, two parts of the District Census Handbooks (part-A comprising Village and Town Directories and Part-B comprising Village and Town PCA) were released in all the States and Union Territories. The third Part (C) of the District Census H~dbooks comprising administrative statistics and district census tables, which was also to be brought out, could not be published in many StateslUTs due to considerable delay in compilation of relevant material. In 1981, some new features alongwith the restructuring of the f

The manner of presentation ofthe DCHs for the 1991 Census is by and large the same as followed in 1981. However, theformat of PC A has been.restructured slightly in the 1991 Censusfor the benefit of data users. Nine-fold industrial classification of main workers has been given as against four-fold industrial classification presented in the 1981 Census. In addition to this, the sex-wise population in the 0-6 age-group has also been included in PCA for the first time with a view to enabling data users to compute more realistic literacy rate as all children below 7 years of age have been treated as illiterates at the time of the 1991 Census. It is expected that the above mentioned modifications will help the planners in chalking out more effective developmental programmes. .

One of the most important innovations in the 1991 Census is the Community Development Block level presentation of data in the Village Directory and PCA instead of the traditional TehsiVTaluklPS level presentation. It is· expected that the presentation of Village Directory and PCA data at C.D. Block level will help the planners in formulation of micro-level developmental plans, as the C.D. Block is the lowe~t administrative unit for developmental planning.

v In order to facilitate the task of administrators, planners and researchers intending to use Village DirectorylPCA data, either from the magnetic tapes/floppies or from the published records, both the computer and manual codes for each village have been provided for the 1991 Census alongwith the corresponding codes of 1981. This publication is a joint venture of the State GoyernmentfUT administration and the Census Organisation. The data have been collected and completed under the direction of Shri K. Sampatli Kumar, Director of Census Operations, Tamil Nadu, on behalf ofthe State Government which has borne the cost of printing. The task of planning, designing imd co-ordination of the publication was iilltiated by Dr. K.P. Ittaman, former Deputy Registrar General (Social Studies) and Shri M.M. Dua, Joint Director, for the sake of uniformity in presentation ofinformationldata and for preparation of analytical note depicting the salient features emerging from a micro-level analysis of cens_us/non-census data, a model District Census Handbook from each State and Union Territory was thoroughly scrutinised in the Social Studies Division under the guidance of Shri M.K. Jain, the present Deputy Registrar General (S.S.). This task was carried out by Shri AK. Singh, Deputy Director who was assisted by Shri N. S. Soam, Assistant Director and his staff Technical guidance in the preparation of the maps was initially provided by Dr. B.K.Roy, former Deputy Registrar General (Map) and later by Mrs. Minati Ghosh, the present Deputy Registrar General (Map). 3

I am thankful to all those who have contributed to this p~oject.

A.R. NANDA Registrar General, India PREFACE

The District Census Handbook is the most useful publication for the public, social workers, researchers, academicians, administrators, local bodies and the government officials for various official and non-official purposes. It gives data for the village/panchayat at the lowest level to the district level including panchayat unionltaluk covering demographic, so'cial, economic and cultural aspects. There had been an endeavour to make it as comprehensive as possible, to provide data on various aspects since its inception and by 1961, it reached the dimensions _of a compendium for the district. The Registrar General, India, in his foreword has kindly tt:aced out the improvements brought out from time to time since 1961 to the latest 1991 Census while the history of the District Census Handbook in this State is narrated in the Introductory Chapter to this volume. The District Census Handbook is a joint venture of the Census Organisation and the Government of Tamil Nadu. The scope of District Census Handbook has been widely increased and restructured in 1981 to meet the Minimum Needs and Revised Minimum Needs Programmes ofthe Planning Commission. Broadly keeping up the '198 I main structure, the formats of the Primary Census Abstract have been restructured slightly for the benefit of data users. The nine-fold industrial classification of main workers as done at the 1961 and 1971 Censuses has been revived instead of the four-fold classification of the 1981 Census. Population in the age-group 0-6 by sex has been given in order to enable computation of realistic literacy rate as all children below 7 years are treated as illiterates. One of the most important innovations ofthe 1991 Census is the presentation of data at the Community Development BlocklPanchayat Union level to help planners in the formulation of micro-level developmental plans at the lowest administrative unit level. lh this State, for development planning, the lowest administrative unit is the 'Panchayat Union'. This time, for the benefit of' data users of Village Directory and PCA data f.rom the magnetic tapes/floppies or from the published records, the computer code as well as the manual code as of 1991 Census and the corresponding location code of 1981 Census are given. The District Census. Handbooks are now being published in two parts - Part-A - Village and Town Directory and Part-B - Village and Townwise Primary Census Abstract. The two parts are being published in one volume as Part A & B. Part-A deals with a brief description of the district - its major characteristics in relation to the economic resources like forestry, agriculture, industries, social, cultural, religious and historical aspects apart from certain basic amenities like drinking' water, education, medical, post and telegraphs, market day(s), communications, etc; and ifany of these facilities are not available to any village, distance range of the nearest place 3 from where available; power supply, approach to the village, nearest town to the village, health and family planning centres, primary health sub-centres and community health workers in the village. Information on approach to village is also provided to identify inaccessible villages in the district. These exhaustive data on infrastructure in relation to amenities available to the villages and land­ use pattern are meant to meet the requirements of 'Micro-level' local area development planning at' the lowest administrative unit viz., C.D. BlockiPanchayat Union level. This is the reason why this time data are being published at C.D. BlockiPanchayat Union level instead of the traditional taluk level. In the Town Directory, information on class of town, area of the town, number of households, population and growth rate of the population of the town at each ofthe Censuses from 1901 to 1991, sex­ ratio at the 1971, 1981 and 1991 Censuses, physical aspects of rainfall and minimum and maximum temperatures recorded, distance from State and District Headquarters, nearest city, communication facilities like railway station, bus-route, inland navigation, Municipal finance, civic and other amenities like protected water supply, electric connections by type, fire fighting service, road length by type, system of sewerage, number of latrines by type, total popUlation and Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe population, medical, educational facilities by type, recreational and cultural facilities like stadia, cinema, drama, community.hall, public libraries and reading rooms, adult literacy classes! centres, working women's hostels, three important commodities manufactured, exported and imported; a special table on civic

vii and other amenities available in all notified slums in Class-I and Class-II towns have been included with a view to ascertain the availability of basic amenities and to meet the Minimum Needs and Revised Minimum Needs Programme. Part-B deals with the Primary Census Abstract for all the villages in the rural areas and wardwise for urban areas. This time the PCA data like Village and Town Directory data are arranged by C.D. BlockJPanchayat Unionwise giving area of the village (in hectares), area of town (in Sq.Km.), number of occupied residential houses, households, population by sex, Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe population, literates, main workers and their distribution into nine industrial categories (as against the four industrial categories published in ] 98 ]), marginal workers, non-workers and the population in the age group 0-6 by sex Further, if a village is covering more than one Panchayat, break up figures for each segment of the village forming different Panchayat also are given.

It is hoped that with the modifications now brought out in the Village Directory, Town Directory and PCA and Publication of data at C.D. BlockJPanchayat Unionwise would go a long way in helping the planners to chalk out more effective developmental programmes at micro-level for local area developmental plans as the,C.D. B1ock/Panchayat Union.is the lowest administrative unit for developmental planning. In the process of collection ofdata ofthis volume, various State and Central Government Departments have extended their kind co-operation particularly with regard to infra-structural amenities for Part­ A - Village and Town Directory, histo'ry and general features of the district. etc. I convey my grateful thanks to all of them. The pcA data presented in Part-B of this volume were collected during the Census Operations in February- March, ] 991, the reference date being sunrise of 1st March, 1991. I remain grateful to the Director of Census Operations, Shri K. Sampath Kumar, who closely guided us in every aspect of this work. He had been a source of strength and inspiration for us. We owe a deep sense of gratitude to him for his kindness in dealing' with our practical difficulties, his patient advice and formula of solutions for even small problems, which we brought to his attention.
