  • District Population Statistics, 22 Allahabad, Uttar Pradesh
    .------·1 Census of India, 1951 I DISTRICT POPULATION STATISTICS UTTAR PRADESH 22-ALLAHABAD DISTRICT t I 315.42 ALLAHABAD: PluNnNG AND STATIONERY, UTTAR PRADESH, INDIA 1951 1953 ALL CPS Price, Re.1-S. FOREWORD THE Uttar Pradesh Government asked me in March, 1952, to supply them for the purposes of elections to local bodies population statistics with separation for scheduled castes (i) mohalla/ward -wise for urban areas, and (ii) village-wise for rural areas. The Census Tabulation Plan did not provide for sorting of scheduled castes population for areas smaller than a tehsil or urban tract and the request from the Uttar Pradesh Government came when the slip sorting had been finished and the Tabulation Offices closed. As the census slips are mixed up for the purposes of sorting in one lot for a tehsil or urban tract, collection of data regarding scheduled castes population by mohallas/wards and villages would have involved enormous labour and expense if sorting of the slips had been taken up afresh. Fortunately, however, a secondary census record, viz. the National Citizens' Register, in which each slip has been copied, was available. By singular foresight it had been pre­ pared mohalla/ward-wise for urban areas and village-wise for rural areas. The required information has, therefore, been extracted from this record. 2. In the above circumstances there is a slight difference in the figures of population as arrived at by an earlier sorting of the slips and as now determined by counting from the National Citizens' Register. This difference has been accen tuated by an order passed by me during the later count.

    International Journal of Biological Research, 4 (2) (2016) 206-210 International Journal of Biological Research Website: www.sciencepubco.com/index.php/IJBR doi: 10.14419/ijbr.v4i2.6590 Research paper Population dynamics of Indian sarus crane, Grus antigone antigone (Linnaeus, 1758) in and around alwara lake of Kaushambi district (Uttar Pradesh), India Ashok Kumar Verma1*, Shri Prakash2 1Department of Zoology, Govt. P.G. College, Saidabad Allahabad-221508, Uttar Pradesh, India 2Department of Zoology, K.A.P.G. College, Allahabad-211001, Uttar Pradesh, India *Corresponding author E-mail:[email protected] Abstract Sarus crane is the only resident breeding crane in India. They prefer open habitat like marsh areas, irrigated paddy fields, grass land and river banks. These areas suit them for foraging, roosting and nesting. These cranes are omnivorous birds, feeding aquatic plants, seeds, roots, tubers, crustaceans, insects, molluscs, fishes, frogs, reptiles and avian eggs. These are not only involved in maintaining the food chain and food web but also providing strength to wetland ecosystem. Ecological and environmental condition of this lake is nicely sup- porting the survival of vulnerable Indian sarus crane, Grus antigone antigone. In general, the population of sarus crane is decreasing at global level but the authors recorded its increasing trends during their exploration from 2011 to 2014 in and around the Alwara lake of Kaushambi district of Uttar Pradesh (India).
