1951- 81 POPULATION OF ADMINISTRATIVE . UNITS (AS ON 4th FEBRUARY. 1986 ) - POPULATION CENSUS ORGANISATION ST ATIS TICS DIVISION GOVERNMENT OF PAKISTAN PREFACE The census data is presented in publica tions of each census according to the boundaries of districts, sub-divisions and tehsils/talukas at the t ime of the respective census. But when the data over a period of time is to be examined and analysed it requires to be adjusted fo r the present boundaries, in case of changes in these. It ha s been observed that over the period of last censuses there have been certain c hanges in the boundaries of so me administrative units. It was, therefore, considered advisable that the ce nsus data may be presented according to the boundary position of these areas of some recent date. The census data of all the four censuses of Pakistan have, therefore, been adjusted according to the administ rative units as on 4th February, 1986. The details of these changes have been given at Annexu re- A. Though it would have been preferable to tabulate the whole census data, i.e., population by age , sex, etc., accordingly, yet in view of the very huge work involved even for the 1981 Census and in the absence of availability of source data from the previous three ce nsuses, only population figures have been adjusted. 2. The population of some of the district s and tehsils could no t be worked out clue to non-availability of comparable data of mauzas/dehs/villages comprising these areas. Consequently, their population has been shown against t he district out of which new districts or rehsils were created. 3. In case of urban areas, it was decided that their population may be published as these existed at the time of the respective censuses irrespective of the fact that these were partly or wholly rural at the time of other censuses. 4. A few urban areas, formed after the 198 1 Census, also appear in this publication but their population has not been shown as it could not be worked out due to non-availability of the requisite details of areas forming these urban area s. 5. The data for the 1951 , 1961 and 1972 Censuses exclude foreigners. However, their population in these censuses according to the districts as they existed at the time of the respective census is given in Annexure- B. The 1981 Census data in clude foreig ners. Their population can not be tabulated separately because in the 1981 Census no question was asked on nationality. G. Mujtaba Mirza Islamabad , 6th November, 1986.
