It will thus be possible to compile and identified. Each such administrative unit starting from tabulate special tables for 'slums'. This will enable State right down to the village/ward can be referred the planners and administrators to visualize the impact to by a combination of such unique numbers. Until and pressure on urban infrastructure and amenities the 1991 Census, a hierarchical coding system was on one hand and graphically capture the housing and followed, whereby each administrative unit was demographic conditions of slum dwellers on the other. 9 Training - Inputs some parts of the country could hardly devote continuously the time required to conduct a complete Training has always been recognized as one of and proper training. Therefore, in a major departure the most vital inputs for smooth and successful from the past, a separate well equipped team of conduct of census. It is not a routine job, as it requires trainers called the 'Master Trainers' was created and clear understanding of several census concepts. The engaged for training of enumerator and supervisor. enumerators are also to be reminded about the These Master Trainers were mainly drawn from sensitivity of the different questions that are canvassed among experienced Lecturers, Principals and other and given tips on the probing techniques. The training Government officials with good oratory and training classes have to be properly structured with the right skills. They were trained intensively at the district emphasis on each of the questions. The training level and in a few states at the state level. This strategies were chalked out well ahead of time for enthusiastic brigade of Master Trainers in turn usuall y the Census of India, 2001. The Instruction Manuals imparted training to enumerators and supervisors in for the Houselisting Operations and Population a phased manner. Enumeration were written up very elaborately, covering every possible situation so that the The training classes were by and large restricted enumerators and supervisors can find solutions to all to 70-80 participants per class. The traditional mode their problems that may arise during the course of such as reading and explaining from the Instruction their fieldwork. The Instruction Manuals also Manual, the chalk and blackboard approach and flip contained a number of appropriate examples and charts were also used in these training classes. To illustrations including filled-in sample schedules and make the training sessions interactive and interesting probing methods for guidance of the enumerators. a number of training modules were conceived, devised and some NGOS also chipped in by participating in The training of Census Officers in the Directorate the training classes particularly for the questions on of Census Operations started very early with the disability. In addition to the traditional approach this formation of four Analytical Groups as early as training was also supplemented with video films, October, 1999. These Analytical Group meetings audiocassettes, power point presentations, overhead provided a platform to the census officers at all levels in the Directorates to analyse and review the several slide projectors, question-answers, mock aspects of the quality and coverage of Census data demonstrations etc. A combination of different on Housing and population characteristics. The modules was used according to the local requirements. Director and at least one senior officer from each The practical training was made a compulsory part Directorate were trained in various census concepts of all training sessions. Each census functionary was in great details at these meetings. The Directors and insisted upon to fill in five practice blue Household their senior officers then took upon themselves the Schedules as a part of the practical training. The responsibility of training of other officials of herlhis supervisory officer/Master Trainer checked these Directorate and all other field census functionaries practice schedules and common discrepancies and starting from the Principal Census Officer (District mistakes were clarified on an individual basis as also Collectors/Municipal Commissioners) to the Charge in an open forum in the presence of all enumerators Officers (Tahsildars, Block Development Officer, and supervisors before the final round of training. Executive Officer of Municipalities etc.). A team of dedicated and specially selected Census It has been our experience in the previous Advisors imparted special training to Enumerators/ censuses that though the Charge Officers were mainly Supervisors in more than two hundred districts on entrusted with the duties of imparting training to gender related issues in Census of India, 2001. In enumerators and supervisors, yet its impact was not these training sessions correct capture of age data, uniform. The Charge Officers who are mainly drawn female population and their economic pursuits were from Tahsildars, BDOs, Executive Officers of emphasized with the help of Census data and training Municipal Council etc., were found to be largely pre modules. For each district, a group of very expe occupied with day-to-day administrative work and in rienced and trained directorate officials was deputed 10 to back-up these training efforts. The Directors and operations, wherever possible, the field work in the other Senior Officials undertook intensive training to states was carried out by the staff of the State sort out all types of problems on the spot. The district Governments, who were specially trained for the administration provided the necessary support through purpose. their active involvement during the two months long Basic Census Concepts and Definitions-Census training period. 2001 Post Enumeration Survey (PES) It is important for the data users to familiarize Post Enumeration Survey (PES), which was themselves with the concepts and the definitions of earlier known as Post Enumeration Check (PEC) has the terms used for proper appreciations of the data become an integral part of the Census operations in contained in this publication. At the same time, it is India since 1951. Till the earlier Censuses, the Post all the more important to understand the implications Enumeration Survey used to be conducted only after of the terms used at the Census of India 2001, for the population enumeration but for the first time in making meaningful comparisons of the similar data the Census of India, 200 1, a PES of the Houselisting generated by various other agencies within the Operations was also conducted after the completion country and with the data produced by other countries of the Houselisting Operations in sixteen major states in the world. The concepts and definitions adopted at including Delhi. The main objectives of the PES for the Census of India, 200 1 are as gi ven below : the Census of India, 200 1, were Generally speaking, persons who were present (i) to get an estimate, of under coverage of in the household during the entire period of census houses, enumeration or who were known to be usual residents (ii) to get an estimate of under coverage of of the household and have stayed there for part of population and the enumeration period or who were not present at the time of visit of the enumerator but were expected (iii) to provide an estimate of the extent of the to return by 28th February, 200 1 were eligible to be content error with respect to certain selected enumerated. For the purpose of enumeration the data items. following persons were enumerated in a household: The sampling frame used for selection of samples Rural and Urban Areas for conducting the PES of the Houselisting Operations were the sample units of the Sample Registration Census data have always been presented for rural System (SRS) unlike the PES of the popUlation and urban areas separately. The basic unit for rural enumeration, where the Enumeration Blocks (EB) areas is the revenue village which has definite were used as the sampling frame. surveyed boundaries. The revenue village may comprise several hamlets but the entire village has In 1991 and earlier censuses, the PES used to be been treated as one unit for presentation of data. In conducted in certain selected states based on the unsurveyed area, like villages within forest areas, each criteria of the size of the population. However, in this Census, the PES was conducted in all the States and habitation area with locally recognised boundaries union territories of the country. In the 1991 Census, within each forest range officer's beat, was treated for measuring the content error, a ten per cent sub as one unit. In the census of India 2001, the definition sample of households enumerated in census was of urban area adopted was as follows :- selected from each Enumeration Block and the usual (a) All places with a municipality, corporation, residents in those households were listed along with cantonment board or notified town area certain particulars. But at the Census of India, 2001, committee etc. PES of all the households in the sampled EBs were (b) A place satisfying the following three criteria listed along with certain particulars. Since the PES simultaneously: estimation methodology is based on the assumption of independence between the PES and the Census (i) A minimum popUlation of 5,000 11 (ii) At least 75 per cent of male working In several areas around a core city or statutory population engaged in non-agricultural town fairly large well recognised railway colony, pursuits and university campus, port area, military camp etc. might have come up. Even if such places are lying outside (iii) A density of population of at least 400 the statutory limits of the corporation, municipality or per sq. km. (1,000 per sq. mile) cantonment etc. in most of the cases they fall within For identification of places which would qualify the revenue limit of the village or villages which is or to be classified as 'urban' all villages, which, as per are contiguous to the town. Since such areas are the 1991 Census had a population of 4,000 and above, already urbanised it is not considered realistic to treat a population density of 400 persons per sq. km. and such areas lying outside the statutory limits of a town having at least 75 per cent of male working popUlation as rural units, although a few of them may not satisfy engaged in non-agricultural activity were considered. some of the prescribed eligibility tests to qualify To work out the proportion of male working population themselves as independent urban units. Such areas referred to above against b (ii) the data relating to have been termed as outgrowths (OGs) and reckoned main workers were taken into account. along with the town. Each such town together with its outgrowth(s) is treated as an integrated urban area Apart from these, the outgrowths (OGs) of cities and is designated as an 'Urban Agglomeration'. An and towns have also been treated as urban under urban agglomeration, therefore, constitutes: 'Urban Agglomerations'. Examples of out-growths are railway colonies, university campuses, port areas, (i) A city or a town with a continuous outgrowth, military camps etc. that may have come up near a the outgrowth being outside the statutory limits statutory town or city but within the revenue limits of but falling within the boundaries of the a village or villages contiguous to the town or city. adjoining village or villages; or Each such individual area by itself may not satisfy (ii) Two or more adjoining towns with their the demographic criteria laid down at (b) above to outgrowths, if any, as in (i) above; or qualify it to be treated as an independent urban unit but may deserve to be clubbed with the towns as a (iii) A city and one or more adjoining towns with or without outgrowths all of which form a continuous urban spread. Thus, the town level data, continuous spread. wherever presented, also includes the data for outgrowths of such towns. Household City A 'Household' is usually a group of persons who normally live together and take their meals from a Towns with population of 1,00,000 and above are common kitchen unless the exigencies of work called cities. prevent any of them from doing so. Persons in a Urban Agglomerations household may be related or unrelated or a mix of At the 1961 Census, the concept of 'Town Group' both. However, if a group of unrelated persons live was adopted to obtain a broad picture relating to urban in a Census house but do not take their meals from spread. This was refined in 1971 with the concept of the common kitchen, then they are not constituent of 'Urban Agglomeration' to obtain better feed back in a common household. Each such person was to be regard to urban contiguity, processes and trends of treated as a separate household. The important link urbanisation and other related matters. This concept in finding out whether it was a household or not was without any change or modification has remained a common kitchen.
