This is the most valuable district level publication brought out by the Ccn~us Organisation on behalf of each State Govt./Union Territory administration. It intcr-alia provides data/information on some of the basic demographic and socio-economic characteri~tics and on the availability of certain important civic amenitics/facilities in each village and town of the respective district!.. This publie~ltion has thus proved to be of immense utility to the planners, admini~trators, academicians and re~earchcrs. The scope of the DCH was initially confined to certain important census tahles on population, economic and socio-cultural aspect~ as also the Primary Cen~us Ah!',tract (PCA) of each village and town (ward-wise) of the district. The DO-Is puhlished after the 1%1 Census contained a descriptive account of the district. admini~trati\"C st'lti~tics, census tahk~ and Village and Town Directories including PCA. After the 1971 Census, two parts of the Di~trict Cen~us 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, Part C of the Distric.:t Cen~us Hanuhooks comprising administrative statistics and district cC'nsus tahles, which was al~ll to he brought out, could not he published in many States/UTs due to con!>iderahle delay in compilation of relevant material. In 19SI, some new features alungwith lhe restrucluring of the formats of Village and Town Dircl'lory were introdu{'ed in the DCHs. These were published in two parts for each district after the 19~1 Ccn~us. While Parl-A comprised Village and Town Directories, the ptA of villages and lowns (waru-wise) incluuing Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe PCA upto teh~il!town level were provided in ParloR To illu~trate, all the amenilies except electricity, were brought together in the Village Directory and if an amenity was not aV41ilablc in the referent vilbge, the di:-.tance in bro~ld rangl'~ from the nean:sl place ha\'ing such amenity was given. Information on some new items such as adult literacy centres, primary health sub-centres and community health workers in lhe village were provided so as to meet some of the requirements of the Revised Minimum Needs Programme. Similarly, information on appma<:h to the viUage W.IS 'Ibn provided for the first time in the Village Directory so as to give an idea abl~ut the number of inaccessihle villages in each di~tri<:t. In case of Town Directories abo, keeping in vicw the n:quirements of the Minimum Needs Programme, a ~Ialcmcnt IV-A on slum~ was provided so a~ to enable the planners to ('halk out tbe programmes for providing hetter civic and other amenities in the slums. In this Statement detail~ on civic and other amenities were reported for the ltlul11s of CIa~s I and Class II towns. Apart from this, one column on the Sdledulcd Ca~tes and Scheduled Tribes pllpulation and another on adult literacy classes/centres were adlled in Sla(emenls IV and V respectively. The manner of present.ation of the DCHs for the 1991 Census is by and large the same as followed in 1981. However, the fOfmat of PCA has been restructured ~Iightly in the 1991 Census for the benefit of data users. Nine-fold inJu~triaJ c1a!>~ilication of main workers has heen given as against four-fold indu~trial classification presented in the 19~1 Cen~us.. In addition to this, the sex-wise population in the 0-6 age-group has also been included in PCA for the lirst time with a view to enabling data users to compute more realistic literacy rates as all children below 7 years of age ha\'e been treated as illiterate at the time of the 1991 Cem.us. It is expectcd that the above mentioned mouifi<:ations will help the planners in chalking out more effective developmental programmes. (v) One of the mo~t important innovations in the 1991 Cen~us is the Community Development Block-level presentation of data in the Village Directory and PCA in;,t.:ao of th.: traditinnal Tah;,il{faluk/PS level presentation. It is expected that Ille prei.entation of Village Directory and PCA dala at CD.Block level will help the planners in formulation of micro-level deyelopm.:ntal plans, as the C.D.Block is the lowest administrative unit for developmental planning. In order to facilitate the task of administrators, planners and researchers intending to usc Village Directory/PCA data, either from the magnetic tapes/Ooppies or from the published records, both the computer and manual codes for each village have been 'provided for the 1(1)1 Census along with the corresponding codes of 1981. This publication is a joint venture of the Stale Govl./UT administration and the Census Organisation. The data have been collected and compikd under the direction of Ms. Sohha Namhisan, Din:ctor of Census Operations, Karnataka on behalf of the State GOY!. administration which has borne the cost of printing. The task of planning, designing and coordination of the publication was initiated by Dr.K.P.lltaman, former Deputy Registrar General (Social Studies) and Shri M.M.Dua, Joint Director. For the sake of uniformity in presentation of information/data and for preparation of analytical note depicting the salient features emerging from a micro-level analysis of Census/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.KJain, the present Deputy Registrar General (S.S.). This task was carried out hy Shri A.K.Singh, Deputy Director who was ai.i.isted by S/Shri V.KJain and Hariram, Investigators and staff. Technical guidance in the preparation of the maps was initially provided by Dr.B.K.Roy, forIT)cr Deputy Registrar General (Map) and later by Mrs. Minati Ghosh, the present Deputy Registrar General (Map). I am thankful to all those who have contrihuteu to this project. l"ew Delhi A.R.Nanda June II. 1992. Rl'gbtrur General, India (vi) PREFACE In the foreword to the 1991 series of the District Census Handbooks, Sri A.R.Nanda, I.A.S., the Registrar General and Census Commissioner, India, has traccd the history of the District Census Handbooks. He has also succinctly explained the scope and covcrage of the District Census Handbooks. These volumes contain the salient data on the population for every village and town as n:vealed by the 19<)1 Census. They also contain a wealth of information regarding these villages and towns which, although not part of the population cemus, throw some light on the circumstances in which people live and is therefore rekvant to the data on the population. This informat ion has abo considerahle importance in the context of planned development. The District Census Handbook is therefore divided into two parts: Part A containing information regarding each village and town (Village Directory amI Town Directory) which is not census data and part B which contains the data on the population collected during the 1991 Census - the Primary Census Abstract.
