FOREWORD Publication of the District Census Handbooks (DCHs) was ini tiated after the 1951 Census and is continuing since then with some innovationsl modifications after each decennial Census. This is the most valuable district level publication brought out by the Census Organisation on behalf of each State Govt. IUnion Territory administration. It inter-alia provides datal information on some .of the basic demographic and socio-economic characteristics and on the availability of certain important civic amenitieslfacilities 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 confined to certain important .census tables on population, economic. and socio-cultural aspects as also the Primary Census Abstract (PCA) of each village and town <ward-wise) 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 Handbooks comprising administrative statistics and district census tables, which was also to be brought out, could not be published in many States/UTs due to considerable delay in compilation of relevant material. In 1981 some new features alongwith the restructuring of the formats of r Village and Town Directory were introduced in the DCHs. These were published , in two parts for each district after the 1981 Census. While Part-A comprised Village and Town Directories, the PCA of villages and towns (ward-wise) including Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe PCA upto Tahsil/Town level were provided in Part-B. To illustrate, all the amenities except electricity were brought together in the Village Directory and if an amenity was not available in the referrent village, the distance in broad ranges from the nearest place having such amenity was given. Information on some new items such as adult literacy centres, primary health sub-centres and community health workers in the village were provided so as to meet some of the requirements of the Revised Minimum Needs Programme. Similarly, information on approach to the village was also provided for the first time in the Village Directory so as to give an idea about the number of inaccessible villages V in each district. In case of Town Directories also, keeping in view the requirements of the Minimum Needs Programme, a Statement IV-A on slums was provided so as to enable the planners to chalk out the programmes for providing better civic and other amenities in the slums. In this statement details on civic and other amenities were reported for the slums of class I and Class II towns. Apart from this, one column on the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes population and another on adult literacy classes/ centres were added in Statements IV and V respectively. The manner of presentation of the DCHs for the 1991 Census is by and large the same as followed in 1981. However, the format of PCA has been restructured slightly in the 1991 Census for 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 peA 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 illiterate 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 Tahsil/Taluk/PS level presentation. It is expected that the presentation of Village Directory and peA data at C.D. Block level will help the planners in formulation of micro-level developmental plans, as the C.D. Block is the lowest administrative unit for developmental planning. In order to facilitate the task of administrators I planners and researchers intending to use Village·Directory/peA 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 Govt. JUT administrat-ion and the Cens.us Organisation. The data havp. been collected and compiled under the direction of Shri T. Senapati, lAS Director of Census Operations, Assam on behalf of the State Govt./UT administration which has borne the cost of printing. The task of planning, designing and coordination of the publication was initiated 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 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 guidan~e of Shri M.K. Jain, the present Deputy VI Registrar General (5.5.). This Task was carried out by Shri A.K. 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). I am thankful to all those who have contributed to this project. A.R. HANDA New Delhi Registrar General, India June 11,1992 VII PREFACE The District Census Handbook is the only publication brought out by the Directorate of Census Operations on behalf of the State Government. The financial aspects of its publication are being taken care of by the State Government. This pUblication presents various demographic data down to the village level in rural area and down to town/ward level in urban area. It also displays the various amenities available in the individual village and town in the form of Village Directory and Town Directory. Since the villages are the lowest units that constitute larger divisions like Revenue Circles, C.D. Blocks, Districts, etc. I the data both census and non-censu~ are useful for micro-planning and· development at grass root level, In th';'s publication for the first time the data are presented C.D. BlockwL3e as well as Revenue Circlewise. Earlier'the data were presented Police Stationwise. Besides an analytical note, the volume consists of two parts, Part-A and Part-B. The Village Directory, which has four appendices, is presented in Section-I of Part-A, and the Town Directory in Section-II. The Primary Census Abstract, which has an appendix, is presented in Part-B. The Census Operations in Assam was conducted under the able guidance of Shri N.C. Dutta, lAS. (Rtd.), Ex-Director of Census Operations, Assam. wllen I took over from him on 30.4.93, drafting of thE: . Handbook in respect of Dhubri district had already been completed and cleared by the office of the Registrar General, India.

  • PLP 2016-17 Dhubri District
    PLP 2016-17 Dhubri District EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The theme for the PLP 2015-16 is “Accelerating the pace of capital formation in agriculture and allied sector”. 1. Introduction to PLP for 2016-17 The criticality of capital formation ‘in’ and ‘for’ agriculture need not be overemphasized. However, the recent declining trend in investment credit vis-à-vis crop loan has serious implications for sustaining capital formation. The theme selected for the PLP 2016-17 is “Accelerating the pace of capital formation in agriculture and allied sector”. The PLP maps the potential in priority sector which could be exploited with institutional credit within a specified time frame. PLP is intended to provide a meaningful direction to the flow of credit to different sectors at the ground level taking into account all relevant factors. The various linkages and other support required to be provided by line departments to facilitate credit flow as planned are also listed in the PLP. NABARD in the year 2012-13 had prepared Base PLP for five years, coterminous with the XII Five year plan-(2012-17). The Base PLP projected a five year credit potential under priority sector covering Primary, Secondary and Tertiary sectors, with an emphasis on the Primary sector. These projections were based on parameters such as technical feasibility, availability of infrastructure, availability of exploitable resources, cropping pattern, agriculture practices and other developmental indices such as access to markets, etc. Some of these parameters may have undergone a change in the district since the finalization of Base PLP on account of factors such as changes in Government’s priorities and policies, strengthening of rural infrastructure, market forces, cost escalation, etc., necessitating a re-look at the credit potential for the year 2016-17.

  • Sal Timber Trade in Goalpara District During Colonial Period
    ISSN. 0972 - 8406 The NEHU Journal, Vol XIV, No. 2, July-December 2016, pp.87-99 Sal Timber Trade in Goalpara District During Colonial Period JAYSAGAR WARY & OINAM RANJIT SINGH* Abstract Sal (Soria Robusta), a hard wood tree, was found extensively in Goalpara forest of Assam. Before the establishment forest department in Assam, the Sal trees were exploited by the Zamindars and private traders for boat making and house constructions. The British India earned huge money from the selling of Sal timber of Goalpara forest division. The Railway line construction in Assam also compelled the extraction of Sal timber. Keywords: Goalpara forest, Sal timber, Railways, Trade and Communication. he Sal forests became important resources of Goalpara district during the colonial period which provided huge revenue to the British India. TBefore the establishment of forest department in Assam, the Sal trees of Goalpara region were exploited by the Zamindars and private traders for house construction, boat making and exporting to the other countries. The timber traders came by boats from Dacca and Mymensingh during rainy season to buy up Sal timber in Goalpara forest.1 The timber was tied with boats and then floated down to the port of Narayanganj near Dhaka. The Sal forest of Porbatjhora and Khuntaghat Parganas were exploited by the Daffadars and timber lumbers of Bengal.2 As Buchanan Hamilton reported: Merchants of Goalpara usually export to the low country from the forests of Howraghat and Mechpara about 1500 canoes in the year...[T]he timber was floated down numerous rivers which included the Ai and Manas, from the Dooar region and also from Nepal and Bhutan, towards the southern ports like Fakirganj.3 ____________________________________________________________________ *Jaysagar Wary ([email protected]) and Oinam Ranjit Singh are teaching in the Department of History, Bodoland University, Kokrajhar, Assam.

Article Information: Submission: 02/03/2021; Accepted: 08/06/2021; Published: 16/06/2021 Abstract The Dimasa Kacharis of Dima Hasao, Assam, India have adopted many ethnic ways of using plants, surrounding them, sometimes due to easy availability or poor communication system. But, with modernization, the ethnicity is gradually fading. Thus, it is very important to scientifically document, restore and preserve the knowledge of ethnobotany for greater interest of human society. The extensive interview survey has been carried out among the people of Dimasa Kachari community of 18 villages in Maibang, Langting, Diyungbra and Umrangso of Dima Hasao, Assam from the month of August 2015 to May 2017 following the open-ended questionnaire survey. Sixty-two respondents report a total of 116 plant species and 19 plant parts, of which 74, 60, 22 and 15 species and 13, 12, 11 and 7 plant parts are used for medicinal, edible, cultural and household uses respectively, where some of them are used commonly.
