The scpecial tables for Schedultd CasteS"and Scheduled Tribes are being published separately since the 1961 Census. The 1981 Census Scheduled Castes and Scbeduled Tribes speciul tabies covered under Part-IX give the data on industrial categories of main workers, marginal workers, type of activity of marginal workers and non-workers, age, sex, marital status, educatio~al . levels etc., for State and District level for each caste and tribe. Most of the tables included in this volunte cortespond to those published in Part-V-A Volume of 197], . A few more tables relating to marginal workers and in respect of those seeking/available for work have also been introduced for the first time in the 198.1 Census. Scheduled Castes and SebeduJed Tribes (n the Indian Censuses prior to 1931.· information was c.oUected and published for each caste and tribe separately. In the 1931 census, tabu·iation of data for individual communities was limited to: (i) exterior castes, (ii) primitive castes and (iii) all other castes with the exception of (a) those whose members fell short of four per thousand of the total population an~ (b) those for which separate figures were deemed to be unnecessary by the local government. ' In the 1941 Census, 'group totals' were tabulated for Scheduled Castes'lTribes and Anglo-Indians. Separate totals were furnished only for a few selected individual tribes. Gov~rnment When preparations for the 1951 Census« were undertaken, the ' of India had already , accepted the policy of official discouragement of community distinctions based on caste. They decided, therefore. that no general race, caste or tribe enquiries should be made but an enquiry should be made regardIng race, caste or tribe only to the extont necessary for providing information relating to certain special groups of the people who are referred to i~ the Constitution of India. The relevant 4rticles are extracted below : Scbeduled' Castes 341(1}: Tbe President may with respect to any State, and where it is a State specified in Part A or Part B of the First Schedule, after consultation with the Governor or Rajpramukh thereof, by public notification, specify the castes, races or tribes or parts of or groups within castes, races or tribes which shall-for the purposes of thjs Constitution be deemed to be Scheduled Castes in relation to that State. 341(2): Parliament may by law include in or exclude from the list of Scheduled Castes specified in a D,9tification issued under clause (1) 'any caste,' l,"ace or tribe or part of or group within any caste. race or tribe, but save as aforesaid a notification issued under the said clause shall not be varied by any . subsequent notification. Scheduled Tribes 342(1): The President may with respect to any State, and where it is a State specified in Part A or Part B of the first Schedule. after consultittion with the Governor or Rajpramukh thereof, by public notification, specify the tribes or tribal communities·or parts of or groups within tribes or tribal communi ties which shall for the purposes of this Constitution be deemed to be Scheduled Tribes in relation to that State. ix x 342(2): Parliament may by law include in or exclude from the list of Scheduled Tril1es specifled in a notification issued under clause (1) any tribe or tribal community or part of or group within any tribe or tribal community, but save as aforesaid a notification iS5ued under the said clause shall not be varied by any sub~equent notification~ From the 1951 Census onwards the Census questionnaire contains items of enquiry to ascertain whether tbe respondent belongs to a Scheduled Caste . or a Scheduled Tribe and if yes, the name of the sCheduled CastejTribe to which he belongs with a view to collecting information for discharging the C~nstitutionalob1igations towJ,lrds these communities. In the Individual Slip (Universal) adopted for the 1981 Census, question 9 makes. an enquiry .about the Scheduled Caste or Scheduled Tnbe status and. question 10 about the name of the specific Scheduled Caste/Tribe. Likewise, question 3 of the household schedule enquires whether the head of the household belongs to a Scheduled Ca~te or Scheduled Tribe and question 4, the. nl\me of the Scheduled Caste/Tribe of the head of the housebold, if the answer to question 3 is in the affirmative. The statutory lists 'of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes are notified in pursuance of Articles 341 and 342 of the Constitution. The lists of Scheduled Castes alld Scheduled Tribes were notified for the first time under the C~nstitution (Scheduled Castes) Order, 1950, the Constitution (Scheduled Castes) (Part C States) Order. 1951, and the Constitution (Scheduled Tribes) Order. 1950, the Constitution (Scheduled Tribes) (Part C States) Order, 1951. These lists have been modified or amended or supple~ mented from time to 'time. On the. reorganisation of the States, the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes, lists· (Modification), Order came into force from 29th October, 1956. Thereafter, a few orders specifying ScheduleO"Castes/Tribes in respect of a few individual :>tates also came into force.
