Taluk" Map of Tarikere 208 (iv) FOREWORD Publication of the District Census Handbooks (DeHs) was initiated after lhe 1951 Census and is c(lIltinuing since then with ~ome innovations! modifications after each dl'ccnnial Census. This is the most valuahle district level puhlication brought out by the Census Organisation on behalf of each Statc Govt./Union Territory administration. It illier-alia provides data/information on some of the basic demographic and socia-economic characteristics and on the availability of certain important civic amcnitics!facilities in each village and town of thc rcspectivc· districts. This publication has thus proved to bc of immense utility to thc planncrs, administrators, academicians and rescarchcrs. The scopc of thc DCH was initially confined to certain important census tables on popUlation, economic and socia-cultural aspects as also the Primary Census Abstract (PCA) of each village and town (ward-wise) of the district. The DCHs puhlished after the 1%1 Census contained a descriptive account of the district, administrative statistics, census tabks and Village and Town Directories including PCA. Aftcr thc 1971 Ccnsus, two parts of thc District Census Handbooks (Part-A comprising Vjllagc and Town Directories and Parl-B comprising Village and Town PCA) were released in all the States an~ Union Tcrritorics. The third part~ Part C of the District Census Handbooks comprising administrative statistics and dif..lrict census tables, which was also to he hrought out, could not be published in many Slales/L1Ts due to considcrable delay in compilation of relevant material. In 19X1, some new featun:s alongwith the restructuring of the formals of Village and Town Dire(:tory wcrc introduced in the DeHs. These wcre published in two parts for cach district after the 19X I Census. While Part-A comprised Village and Town Directories, thc PCA of villages and towns (ward-wise) including Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe PCA upto tehsil/tmvn kvel 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 availahlc in thc referent village, thc 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 vilbge were provided so as to meet Stll11e of the requirements of the Revised M_inimum 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 thc number of ilbccessible villages in each district. In casc of Town Dircctories also, keeping in view the requirements of the Minimum Needs Programme, a Statement IV-A on slums was provided so as to enahle the planners to chalk out the programmes for providing hetter civic and other amenities in thc slums. In this Statement details nn civic and othcr amenities were reportcd for the slums of Class I and Class II towns. Apart from this, one column on the Schedulcd ('astd and Scheduled Tribes population and another on adult literacy classes/centres were added in Statements tV and V respectively. The manner of presentation of the DCHs for the 1991 Census is by and large the same as followed 111 1~81. Howcver, thc format of PCA has been restructured slightly in the 1991 Census for the henclit of data users. Ninc--fold industrial classification of main workers has been given as against four-fold indu!-.trial classification presented in the 1()Sl Census. In addition to this, the sex-wise population in thl.! I)-C) age-group has also been induded in PCA for the first time with a view to enahling data users to compute more realistic literacy rates as all children helow 7 "., <Irs of a!!e have been treated as illiterate at the time of the 1(),)1 Censlls. ,It is expected that till' ahove mentioned modilications will help the planners in chalk ing out more effect ive deve In(1Illl'l1t al programmes. (v) One of the most important innovations in the 1991 Census is the Communit.y Development Block-level presentation of data in the Village Directory and PCA instead of the traditional Tahsil!f.aluk/PS level presentation. It is expectt:d 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 lowest administrative unit for developmental planning. In order to facilitate the task of administrators, planners and researchers intending to use Village Directory/PCA data, either from the magnetic tapestnoppies or from the puhlished records, both the computer and manual codes for each village have been provided for the 1991 Census along with the corresponding codes of 1981. This publication is a joint venture of the State Govt./VT administration and· the Census Organisation. The data have been collected and compiled under the direction of Ms. Sobha Nambisan, Director of Census Operations, Karnataka on behalf of the State Govt. administration which has borne the cost of printing. The task of planning, designing and coordination of the puhlication was initiated hy Dr.K.P.IUaman, 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 HandL':.K)k 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 by Shri A.K.Singh, Deputy Director who was assisted by S/Shri V.K.Jain and Hariram, Investigators and 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 contrihuted to this project. New Uelhi A.R.Nanda June 11. 1992. Regist .. ar Generdl, India (vi) PREFACE In the fO"eword to the 1991 series of the District Census Handbooks, Sri A.R.Nanda. I.A.S., the Registrar General and Census Commissinner, India, has traced the history of the District Census Handbooks. He has also. succinctly explained thc scope allli con:rage of the District Census Handbooks. These volumes contain the salicnt data on the population for every village and tl)Wn as revealed by the 1991 Census. They also contain a wealth of inforniation regarding thesc villages and towns which, although not part of the popUlation census, throw some light on the circumstances in which people live and is therefore relevant to the data on the popUlation. This information has also considerahle importance in the contc.:xt of pl.anncd dc.:velopment. The District Census Handbook is therefore divided into two parts: Part A containing information regarding each village and town (Village Directory and Town DirectMY) which is not census data and part B whi(.'h contains the data on the population colkcted L1uring the 11)91 Census - the Primary Census Abstract.
