Of. every. ~istric~ publi~he~ in 191.1 and 1941. No definite answer IS forthcommg as to why such publIca'tlOn~, gIvmg vIllage-wIse mformatIon of occupietl houses, break-up of population into males/females and li~rates, were not brought out in 1!J21 and 1931. The reason couid be transfer from 1921 of celltain charges on Census previously met from the provincial revenues to the Central revenues and the Government of India may not have considered it necessary to publish statistics upto tile village le~~l. 'Village Statistics' in 1941 were brought out by the Ceilitral Fro_vinces and Berar. Govel'llment and this' practice of bringing out district-wise publications at the cost of the State Government has since been cont~nuing. 2. The scope of the diSitrict-wise publications, now called the District Census Handbooks, has been ulldergoing change with each successive Census from 1951. In 1951, the Dis.trict Census. Handbooks only contained the Pr!mary Census Abstract and the Census tables. In view of the usefulness of separate publication for each district, improvements were made at the time of the 1961 Census by including non-Census data like climate, agriculture, co-operation, industry, education, etc. Au 'Introduc tory Note' was also added to highlight the more striking features. Unfolltunately!. the desire to make district-wise Census publications very comprehensive lbulied in late availability of the books Ito the users. Therefore, this time the District Census Handbooks have been divided into three parts in order to release maximum data, -as _and when finalised, so that the publications may have a useful life of aboUit seven to eight years of inter-Censal decenni~m. Part A will contain Primarily non-Census statistics, Pan B the Primary Census Abstract and Part C various administrative 5tatiitics with a -d1apter titled "Introducing the district". It may be mentioned here that su~sequently a decision has been taken to merge Parts A and B in one volume on grounds of economy. 3. Much of the delay in the publication of the District Census Handbooks after the 1961 Census was due to delay in collection of administrative statistics and the decision to write the IntrOductory Note in the head office, Separation of administrative statistics and Ithe decision to write the Introductory and the kind Co-operation of the State Government permitting Collectors of the 1961-71 decade to write th~ chapter on "Introducing the District", likely to go a long way in early.publication of all .tb.,., "~>'\s of the District Census Handbooks. Anotherfavourable {actor this time is the early decision of .~le Government to permit printing in private presses as and when Ithe 'work-Ioad on the State 'rnment Presses is heavy and likely to result in delay in the bringing out of the District Census .'ok of any distriat. It would not be out of place to point out here that the work-load in don with Ithe District Census Handbooks is very -much more this time, not only on account of wider coverage but largely due to the decision to bring out the District Census Handbooks in Hindi ~s well as English. In all, there will be 172 publications, 4 per di8trict of which 2 will be in Hindi and 2 in English. Advance action was taken this time to collect the non Census data and it is hoped that the combined volume of Pants A and B of all the 43 districts would be out by the end of 1973 and Part C of all the districts by the middle of 1975. This would be a definite improvement on the 1961 performance when printing of the District Census Handbooks covered the period 1964 to 1967. 4. In his Preface to Ithe 1961 District Census Handhooks, my predecessor, Shri G. Jagathpathi! had observed thus, "It was not possible at this Census to base all Census statistics on the development block as the unit mainly because in 1961 there were many areas not till then covered by blocks. The coverage had become complete by about the middle of 1963 and ilt is not unlikely that the 1971 Census will recognise the block as the basic field unit as much for purposes of presentation as for operational pur poses.". It ~as .not ?een possible to adopt the deyelopment block as the basic unit for operation and presentatIOn m thIS Census for more than one reason., Firstly, the office of the Block Develop ment Officer was abolished in December, 1965; its resurrection in the form of office of the Block Development Assistant from 2-10-69 had not taken firm roots up to ,the time field arrangements for the 1971 Census were finalised. Secondly, the tahsil as -a. unit of field arrangements has many more advan tages, the most significant being the ready availability of that legendary functionary-the patwari-w~thout whose active co-operation it would be a formidable task to determine whether a habited structure in a cultivated field is part of village X or Y.. Even, otherwise, since village-wise figures are available, it s~ould not be difficuLt for those in need of data for intermediate units between the village and the tahsil, lIke the .development block or patwari halka, to compile ilt by adding figures of concerned villages. !he tahsIl has for long been a fixed unit of administration and, to my mind, should be retained 111 preferenc~ to the development block whose jurisdiction may undergo a change in accordance W1,th the pace of future development. 2 5. In conclusion, I would like to place on record my grateful (thanks to th¢ (}Qvernment of Madhya Pradesh for having ~ kindly agreed to undertake the publication of the Handbooks in hindi as well as english to the various governmelllt and semi-government offices for un;hesita'tingly making available the non-Census sta,tiSitics, and to the Controller, Government Press, and his staff for arranging. early printing in the Government and private Presses.
