Foreword

~e District Census Handbook (DCHB) published by Census Organisation since 1951 Census, is one of lthe important publications in the context of planning and development at grass-root level. The publication, which is brought out for each district, contains several demographic and socio-economic characteristics village­ wise and town-wise of the district alongwith the status'Ofavailability of civic amenities, infrastructural facilities, etc. 2. The scope of the DCHB was initially confined to a few Census Tables and Primary Census Abstract (PCA) of each village and town within the district. Thereafter, at successive censuses, its scope and coverage has been enlarged. The DCHB published at the 1961 census provided a descriptive account of the district, administrative statistics, census tables and a village and town directory including PCA. The 1971 census - DCHB series was in three parts : Part-A related to vilage and town directory, Part-B to village and town PCA and Part-C comprised analytical report, administrative statistics, district census tables and certain analytical' tables based on PCA and amenity data in respect of villages. The 1981 census DCHB was in tow parts: Part­ A contained village and town directory and Part-B the PCA of village and town including the SCs and STs PCA upto tahsil/town levels. New features alongwith restusturing of the formats of village and town directory were added into it. In village Directory, all amenities except electricity were brought together and if any amenity was not available in the referent village, the distance in broad ranges from the nearest place having such an amenity, was given. Information on new items such as adult literacy centres, primary health sub­ centres and community health workers in the village were provided so as to meet the requirements of some of the Revised Minimum Needs Programme. Information on approach to the village was provided for the first time in the Village Directory so as to give the details on number of inaccessible villages in each district. In the Town Directory. a statement (IV-A) on slums was introduced to provide the details on civic and other amenities in the notifioed slums of Class I and Class II towns. 3. The 1991 census DCHB, by and large, followed the pattern of presentation of 1981 census, except the format of PCA was restructured. Nine-fold industrual classification of main workers was given against the four-fold industrial classification presented in the 1981 census. In addition, sex-wise population in 0-6 age group was included in the PCA for the first time with a view to enable the data users to compile more realistic literacy rate as all children below 7 years of age had been treated as illeterate at the time of 1991 census. One of the important innovations in the 1991 census was the Community Development Block (CD block) level presentation of village directory and PCA data instead of the traditional tahsil/taluklPS level presentation. It was expected that the presentation of village directory and PCA data at CD block level will help the planners in formulation of micro level development plans, CD block being lowest administrative unit. 4. The present series of the 200 I Census DCHB have been made more informative and exhaustive in terms of coverage and content. The Village Directory has been enlarged in scope by including a number of other facilities like banking, recreational and cultural facilities, newspapers and magazines and 'most important commodity' manufactured in village. Income and expenditure of gram panchayat, wherever possible, has been provided. Apart from these, more details on distance (s) at which basic amenities are available (if not available in the village), are given. This includes educational facilities (namely primary and middle schools and college), medical facilities (viz. Allopathic Hospital, Maternity & Child Welfare Centre and Primary Health Centre), drinking water, post & telegraph (post office and phone), communication, bank, credit societies and recreational facilities. In town directory, the statement of Slums has been modified and its coverage enlarged by including (ix) details of all slums instead of 'notified slums'. The information is given in case of all statutory towns irrespective of their class, against only Class I and Class II towns in the 1981 and 1991 censuses. The basic amenities available in the villages and towns are analyzed in depth with the help of a number of cross-classified inset tables and statements. Two other significant additions in the publication are inclusion 'motif' highlighting significant characteristic of the district and analytical notes as annexures. The analytical notes on (i) fertility and mortality and (ii) various measures of fertility and mean age at marriage are prepared based on 1991 Census. Whereas, in the notes relating to (i) percentage distribution of migrants by place of birth/place of last residence, (ii) main religions, (iii) marital status of population, (iv) age, sex and education, and (v) distribution of spectrum of mother tongue, nature and extent of changes occured in the district in its basic socio-demographic features during the decade 1991-2001 are analysed. The eight digits permanent location code (PLCN) to all the villages and towns have been assigned keeping in view the future needs. 5. The village and town level amenity data have been collected, complied and computerized in prescribed record structure under the supervision of Shri P.K. Bhattacharjee, Director of Census of Operations, Mizoram. Thereafter, effort has been made to ensure comparability of the information with that of 1991 census data and the information brought out by the respective State Governments in their annual reports and statistical handbooks for various year~ after 1991. The task of planning, designing and coordination of this publication was carried out by Shri RG. Mitra, Deputy Registrar General (C&T) and Dr. I.C.Agrawal, Senior Research Officer of Social Studies Division. Dr. RP. Singh, Deputy Registrar General (Map) provided the technical guidance in the preparation of maps. Whereas, Shri Ani! Kumar Arora, Deputy Director of Data Processing Division who worked under the overall supervision of Shri Himakar, Add!. Director(EDP) helped in preparation of record structure for computerization of village and town direytory data and the programme for the generation of Village Directory and Town Directory statements including analytical inset tables. The draft DCHB. manuscripts received from the Census Directorates have been scrutinized in the Social Studies Division under the guidance of Shri S.L. Jain, Deputy Director and Shri R.K. Mehta, Assistant Director, I am thankful to all of them and others who have contributed to make this publication possible.

Task Force on Quality Assurance After the data is processed, it is expedient on The gigantic operation of Population Enumeration the part of the data producing agency tp satisfy itself (considered by many to be the single largest and about its quality before putting the same in public complex peace time administrative exercise in the domain. This has to be done mainly through the world) was made possible due to the door to door process of internal consistency, comparison with universal canvassing of the Household Schedule by similar data in the past and also through validation about 2 million enumerators and supervisors covering with likewise data ifavailable, from external sources. 593 districts, 5,463 sub-districts, 5,161 towns and Quite often the local knowledge and perception has 638,588 village~. The comprehensive Household to be brought into play to understand both the existing Schedule which replaced the individual slip had three and the new emerging trends of population distribution parts and two sides A and B.

The part enumeration phase where the data is disseminated II of the Household Schedule had 39 columns and 23 right up to the village level in the rural areas and the qu~stions all of which were universally canvassed and ward level in the urban areas. Thus ensuring the no sampling was resorted to during enumeration. complete coverage and correct geographical linkage of each enumeration block was one of the major Data Processing planks of the quality control, specially for small area A quantum leap was made in the technology front population statistics. while processing the Census 2001 data both for A very comprehensive check and edit mechanism Houselisting and Population Enumeration.
