Wankaner, Rajkot, Jetpur and other former Indian States whIch formed part of the Western Kathl8war Agency, The total number of units of the former Indian States and thanas included in this district was 41. Atkot. Paddhari and lam-Kandorna taIllkas of Halar were added to the district after its constitution, and three enclave villages were transferred from this district to Amreli distr~ct of Bombay State. The district had a population (1951 Census) of 1,045,675 and an area of 4,660.2 square miles according to the (lrea figure furnished by the Surveyor General of India. This Handbook contains tables for Madhya Saurashtra district, comviled after the 1951 , Census of India. The main results of the 1951 Census are embodied io the State Tables published for the States: of Bombay, Saurashtra and Kutch. In this Handbook~ the data are exhibited in greater detail. The numbers given to tables in this publication correspond to those given in the State Census Report. The following tables for the district have, however, not been included in this Handbook :- A-II Variation in population during fifty years. A-IV. Towns classified by population with variations since 1901. D·lV. Migrants. In the E-Summary tabhdn this Handbook, some columns bave been omitted. in the case of the C-series of tables, except C-I, the data were extracted on the basis of a sample count of approxlmately 10 per cent. of the CenS\lS slips, instead of a full count of all the slips. The C-I table was prepared from a four per cent. sa:t1lplc of the households recorded in the N-ational Register of Citizens relating to each town or village. Till tbe 1951 Census tbe basis of classification of the population was a sodal one, namely according to religion, castes and communities. At the 1951 Census the basis was changed from a social to an economic one and the figures for villages given in the Primary Census Abstracts and in tables A-V~ B-1, B-H, C-H and E aTe according to the following eight Livelihood Classes ~- Agricultural Classes l. Cultivators of land, wholly or mainly owned; and their del1endants. U. Cultivators of land, wholly or mainly unowned: and their dependants. m. CUltivating labourers; and their dependants. IV. Non-cu1tivatlng owners of land: agricultural rent receivers; and thelr dependants. Non·Agricultuml Classes Persons (including dependants) who derive their principal means of livelihood from :­ V. Production Qther than cultivation. VI. Commerce. VII. Transport. VIII. Other services and miscellaneous SOUfce3. Dependants, whether earning or non-earning, were c1assitled at the ccn~us according to the prindpru means of livelihood of the persons on whom they were dependent. The Primary Census Abstracts, which contain basic information in respect of every village and town have been arranged according to tuJukas nnd petas, units into which every district is divided ro'r administrative purposes. The taluka was, however, too small a unit to adopt for preparing the main census tables. Therefore, in the B, C and D selies of tables figures have been given for tracts and not for talukas and peta.s. Before sorting the census slips and tabulating the results tracts were formed by combining the rural and urban areas of two or more tallikas or petas. The tracts into which Madhya Saurashtra district was divided for this purpose are shown below:- Rural Tracts (1) Rural areas of Rajkot. Ja,dan and Babr. Talukas and Paddhari and LDdhika Petas (2) Rural areas of Morvi and Wankaner Talukas and MaUya Peta. (3) Rural areas of Gondal and Kunkavav Talukas and Kotda-Sangani Peta. (4) RuraJ areas of Jetpur and Dhoraji Talukas and larn-Kandorna feta, Urban Tracts (I) Urban area of Rajkot City. (2) Urban areas of Jasdan~ Babra, Morvl and \Vankaner Talukas and Puddhari, Lodhika and Maliya Petas. (3) Urban areas of Gondal and Kunkavav Talukas and Kotda·Sangani Peta. (4) Urban areas of Jetpur and Dhoraji TaIukas and Jarn·Kandorna Feta. Urban areas comprise the to"'!1S shown in table A·V. Shortly before the 1951 pO~lUlation Census, a census of Small Industries was taken, and the results of this census are given in the tables called .. Small Scale Industries Census·Employrnent in Establishments" included in this handbook. The intention was to find out some tbing about Cottage and Home Industries and small workshops. The larger establishments, that is, power·using establishments with 10 or more workers and non·power using establishments with 20 or more workers, were excluded from the scope of the enquiry. The enquiry did not concern itself also with workers functioning on their own and not employing other people, except when looms were used. If nen one loom was used a return was required. Otherwise the concept was of an enquiry which embraced all forms of associate activity where articles were produced, repaired or otherwiE:e treated fOf sale, use or disposa1. 4 A-GENERAL POPULATION A-I-AREA, HOUSES District: Occupied Houses.

Prior to independence, tiie state comprised of 222 small and big kingdoms. After independence, kings were ruling over various princely states. Late Shri Vallabhbhai Patel, the than Honorable Home Minister of Government of India united all these small kingdoms into Gujarat-Bombay state (Bilingual State) during 1956. In accordance with the provision of the above-mentioned Act, the state of Gujarat was formed on 1 of May, 1960. Rajkot remained the capital of Saurashtra during 1948 to 1956.
