No definite answer is forthcoming as to why such pu blIca'tlOl1l>, glVlllg village-\\l~e mformatlOl1 of occupied houses, bl<:ak-uI~ 01 population into males, females and literates, were not brought out III 1921 and 19j1. The reaWll could be transier 1Wlll lY21 01 celltain charge~ on Census previously lllel from the provinCial revenues to thc Centlal lC\'enUeo and the Government ot India may not have considered it necessary to publioh statistics upto the nllage le~l. 'Village Statistics' in 1941 were brought out by the Ceilitral 1'lOvinces and Berar Govemlllellt and this practice of bringing out dhtnct-wi;,e pu blica,tiollS at the co,t of the State t~O\ eJnlUellL has since been continuing. 2. The scope of the diSilflct-wise publications, HOW called the District Cemus Handbooks, has been uuucrgolllg change with cacl! successive Census Hom 1951. In 1951,the District Census Hamlbooks ollly contained the Primary Census Abstract and the Census tdoles. In Vlew of tlle usefulness of separate 'publiGlJeiOll for each diotrict, improvements were madc at lhe time ot the 1961 Census by including non-Census data like climate, agriculture, co-uperatioll, industry, education, etc. An 'Introduc lory N otc' was also aJded to highlight the more .,ll iking ieatures. U nfol1tunatelYL the desire Lo make district-wise Census publications very comprehensive re,ulled in late availability ot the books Ito the men. Therefore, this time the Distri(;t Census Handbooks have been divided into _three parts in Older to release maximum data, as and when fmalised, so that the publications may have a useful life of about seven to eight years ot inter·Censal decennium. 13 art A will contain Primarily non-Census statistics, Part B the Primary Census AbSitract and Part C various administrative statistics with a chapter titled "Introducing the district". It may be mel1ltioned here that subsequently a decision has been taken to merge Parts A and B in one volume on grounds of economy. 3. Much of the delay in ,the publication of the District Census Handbooks after the 1961 Census was due to delay in collection of administrative statistics and the decision to write the Introductory Note in the head office, Separation of administrative statistics and <the decision to write the Introductory and the kind Co-operation of the State Government permitting Collectors of the }961-71 decade to write the chapter on "Introducing the District", likely to go a long way in early publicaltion of all the parts of the District Census Handbooks. Anotherfavourable factor th.is time is the early decision of the State Government to permit printing in private presses as and when Ithe work-load on the State Government Presses is heavy and likely to result in delay in the bringing out of the District Census Handbook of any distriot. It would not be out of place to point out here that the work·10ad in connection with Ithe District Census Handbooks is very much more this time, not only on account of wider coverage but largely due to the decision to bring out the District Census Handbooks in Hindi ~s well as English. In all, there will be 172 publications, 4 per district of which 2 will be in Hindi and :! in English. Advance action was taken this time to collect the non Gensus data and it is hoped that the combined volume of Par,ts A and B of all the 43 districts would be out by the end of }973 and Part C of all the districts by the middle of 1975. This would be a definite improvement on the 1961 performance when printing- of the District Census Handbooks covered the period 1964 to 1967. 4. In his Preface to It he 1961 District Census Handbooks, my predecessor, Shri G. Jagathpathi, had observed thus, "It was not possible at this Census to base all Census statistics On the development block as the unit mainly because in 1961 there were many area~ 1I0t till then covered by blocks. The coverage had become complete by about the middle of 1963 and i,t is not unlikely that the 1971 Census will recognise the block as the basic field unit as much for purposes of presentation as for operational pur· poses.". It has not been possible to adoptt the development block as the basic unit for operation and presentation in .this Cemus for more than one reason. Firstly, the office of the Block Develop '1lC:1( Officer was abolished in December, 1965; its resurrection in the form of office of the Block Development Assistant from 2·]0-69 had not taken firm roots up to ,the time field arrangements for the 1971 Census were finalised. Secondly, the tahsil as a unit of field arrangements has many more advan· tagcs, the most significant ucing the ready availability of that legendary functionary-the patwari-w~thout whose active co·operation it would be a formidable task to determine whether a habited structure in a cultivated field is part of village X or Y.
