PREFACE
Of all the reports brought out by the Census Organisation, the Administration Report is the only one such publication which is not meant for general use. It is meant for official use only.
The Report is intended to be a guide to the successor at the following Census. The main aim of this Report is to provide at one place as detailed an account as possible of the organi. sation of the Census in the Union ierritory, in all its facets. Here an attempt has been made .to provide a balanced account of what has been done or could be done in future towards improving the entire Census Operations.
For a visual picture, some photographs relating to the operations in typical situations such as enumeration of houseless persons have been induded in the report. Delhi with a fast growing population, slums, .katras and unauthorised colonies poses many problems for a Census taker. The report presents experiences of all of my colleagues in the Census and the various organi sational problems and how we solved them.
It is my earnest hope that my successor. in 1991 will find the report quite helpful. In pre paring this report I have been greatly assis.ted by S/Shri S. S. S. laiswal and M. L. Sharma, Dy. Director and Asstt. Director, respectively, and they both deserve my grateful thanks.

CHAPTE,R XIII-GENERAL The process of census work in Delhi started with this case was due to the fact that the Enumerators the issue of a circular as early as in March, 1980 in had also to attend to the work relating to the Degree . which the broad aspects of Census taking were dis Holders and Technical Personnel Schedules. cussed. This was followed by a series of circulars deal ing with specific topics. These circulars were issued to all the Census Officers.

The Houselisting operations provide the basic j,.ame jar the jorination of the enumeration blocks for the Yours sincerely, census in 1981. However, since the Houselisting oper (Sd./-) ations precede the actual count by a few months, it (P. Padmanabha) is essential to ensure that the coverage of the census houses and households at the time of the ceasus is Encl: as above complete. This is achieved by the adoption of an Shri intermediate form called the Abridged Houselist. The Abridged Houselist contains certain essential details Director of Census 'Operations from the Houselist and will be updated by the enu merator as he goes round his block in the census PART I period. Therefore, soon after the Houselisting opera tions are over, two important and essential steps have (Census, Circular No. 10) to be taken.
