The nCR is constantly referred to by planners, administrators, academici~ns and researchers. It is inter alia used for delimi tation of constituencies, formulation of local level and regional plans and as an aid to District administration. The district census handbook is the only publication which provides PrimalY Census Abstract (peA) data up to village level for the rural areas and ward wise for each city or town. It also provides data on infrastructure and amenities in villages and towns etc. The district census handbook series was initiated dUring tbe 1951 Census. It contained important census tables and PCA for each village and town of th: district. During 1961 Census the scope of the DCH, was enlarged and it contained a descriptive account of the district. administrative statistics, census tables, village and tdwn directory, including PCA. The 1971 DCH series was planned in three parts. Part-A related to [village and town directory, Part-B to village and town PCA and Part-C comprised analytical report, administrative statistics, district census tables and certain analytical tables based on peA and amenity data in respect of villages. However, in some states it was confined to district census tables and in a few cases altogether given up due to delay in compilation and 'printing While designing the format of ]981 DCH series some new features along with the restructuring of the formats of village and town directory have been attempted. At the same time, comparability with the 1971 data bas also been kept in view. All the amenities except power supply in the village have been brought together in the village directory with tbe instruction that in case an amenity is not available in the referrent village the distance in broad ranges from the nearest place wbere the amenity is available may be given. The restructuring of the format of the village directory and incorporating more exhaustive data on infrastructure aspect particularly in rclation to amenities and land-use pattern is expected to further meet the need of micro level planning for rural areas. It is expected to help not only in local area planning but regulating the provision of goods and services as well so as to minimise the regional imbalances in the process of development. A few new items of information have also been introduced to meet some of the requirements of tbe Revised Minimwm Needs Programme. Such new items of information as adult literacy centres, primary health sub-centres, and community health workers in the village bave been introduced in the Village directory with this objectives in mind. The new item on approach to the village is to have an idea about the villagt's in tbe district Which are inaccessible. A new column, "total popUlation and number of households" has been introdu<;ed to examine tbe correlation of the amenitjes with the population and number of households they serve. Addition of two more appendices listing tbe villages where no amenities are available and according to the proportion of scheduled castes and scheduled tribes popUlation to the total population has also been made with this view in mind. The formats of the town directory have also been modified to meet the requirements of tbe Minimum Needs Programme by providing information on a few new items. A new statement on civic and other amenities in slums in class-I and Class-II towns (Statement IV-A) has been introduced with this objective iG mind. It is expected that this will help the plannerli to chalk out programmes on provision of civic amenities for the improvement of slums. The columns on Scheduled Castes and Sched uled Tribes population in statement IV relating to civic and other amenities and adult literacy classes/centres under educational facilities in statement V arc also added inter alia with this iv view. A significant add ition is class of. town in all the seven statements of the tOWI' directory. 'The infrastructure of amenities in urban areas of the country cao be ,best analysed by taking the class of towns into consideration. The addition of the columns on civic administration status and population in a few statements also serves this purpose. The format of the primary cen~us abstract for the villages and towns has been formulated in the light of <>hanges in the economic and other questions canvassed through the individ ual slip of 1981 census. In order to avo'id delay in publication of 1981 DCH series it has been so designed that Part-Aof . the volume' contains village and town directory and Part-B the peA of villages and towns including , the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes peA upto Tahsil/Town levels. At the beginning of the DCR a detailed analytical no~e supported by a number of inset tables based on peA and non-census data 'in relation to the infrastructure has been introduced to enhan~e its value. The district and tahsil/poli'ce stationlC D Block etc. level maps depicting the, boundaries and other important features have been imerted at appropriate places, to further enhance the value of the publication. This pUblication is a joint venture of the State Government and the Census Organisation. The data have been collected and compiled in the State under the direction ofShri K. C. Dubey, the Director of Census Operations, Madhya Pradesh on behalf of the State Government which has born~ the cost of printing. The task of planning, designing and coordination of this publication was carriediout by Shri N. G. Nag. Deputy Registrar General (Social Studiei) of my office. Dr. B. K. Roy, De~puty Registrar General (Map) provid ed the tecbnical guidance in the preparation of the maps. Data received from Census Directorates have been scrutinised in the Social Studies Division at the headquarters under the guidance of Shri M. M. Dua, Senior Research Officer. 1 am. thankful to all who have contributed in the project. P ..pADMANABHA REGISTRAR GENERAL, INDIA New Delhi the 26th April, 1982. PRBFACE One of the most important pUblications of the Census are the District Census Handbooks. This publ}cation was begun, in this caption since 1951 Census. But prior to this, a similar publication was released in the Census earlier than 1951. Tbat publication was on the title of ViJIage Statistics and it contains only village names and total population thereof. The 1951 Census could, therefore, be said to represent a significant st~p in the process of making detailed Census statistics avaiJable down upto the vil1age level. Iq fact the District Census Handbook is the most important publication at the Census and is also 'perhaps tbe most widely \lsed. Also perhaps this is the only publication used at the micro-level down upto the tahsil and developme~t block. I The form of the District Census' Handbook has gone considerable cbange since ]951. Thil is basically due to the growing demand for more information. For the purpose of convenience as well as witb a view of making the basic statistics available with the data users as early as possible the District Cenlus Handbonks have been split into 2 parts, Part-A contains the Introductory Note on the district and Town/Village Directory. This volume will be found useful to get aIDlost all the non-Census sta tistics available at ~ne place. Part-B contains the Primary Census Abstract. One of the innovation of the present Census bas been in terms of allotment of Location Code numbers to the villages. In the earlier Censuses the location code system was such tbat the villages of a Patwari Circle'were found at different 5erial numbers. Since the Patwari Circle still remains an important administrative unit the location code numbers have been so given in the present Census that it may be possible to locate all the villages of a particular Patwari Circle at One place one below the other. When the planning for the present census was started in 1979 the tahsils were still revivable as an important unit of the administration, the whole planning was, therefore, done taking tahsil as the unit. It was during the course of the census that some requests were informally received for making blockwise data av.ailable. Since thcle requests were received very late and were also received only in an inCormaf manner, it has not been possible to disturb the original planning of villages arranged according to the location cod e numbers taking tahsil as one unit. However. additional exercise has bee-':l done and in addition to the tahsil figures blockwise figures have also been indicated. It is hoped lhat the availability ~f these blockwise data will enhance the utility of this publication. It is hoped that this handbook will provide the basic statistical support to executive and· developmental administration. It is needless to state tbat the proper implementation of policy depends on the ability of the administration autborities concerned. It may be remembered that the villagewise area figures given in the Primary Census Abstract and the Village Directory are those based on the village papers while the tahsil totals given in PCA aN obtained from the Land Records dopa. which in many cases exclude forest area. vi The statistics that are containe'd in the district census hand books are the result of a massive, and marathon exercise in the compilation and tabulation of voluminous statistics. The compilation of the statistics contained in this volume was carried Ollt by 9 Regional Tabulation Offices each under a Regional Deputy Director of Census Opera~ions. These Regional Offices were run with the help of purely temporary staff-roughly about 1,500 Tabulators, about 250 Checkers and abou.t 80 Supervisors. I am grateful to my colleagues, the Regional Deputy Directors and those temporary staff for the speed and accuracy in the editing and basic compilation of more than nearly 522 lakh slips and nearly I lakh of household schedules. The compilation of village director.y was taken up at the headquarters and I am equally grateful to the officers and staff who have worked whole heartedly on the job in a collec tive and co-operative venture. It is not possible nor fair to name in this. The maps contained in the handbook have been prepared in the Cartographic Section of my office. However, the analytical note has been prepared by Shri P. C. Sharma, Deputy Director of Census Operations. I am thankful to all who have contributed to bring this publication possible. The census organisation is also grateful to the Government of Madhya Pradesh for having been so kind as to undertake the publi,ation of these handbooks and to the Controller, Printing and Stationery. Madhya Pradesh. Bhopal and his staff for the printing arrangements made.. The inspiration behind this ambitious venture is that of our indefatigable Registrar General, Shri P. Padmanabha to whom we are all deeply grateful. Our thanks are also due to Shri N. G. Nag, Deputy Registrar General (Social Studies) for all t.he help that we received from him and his section. K. C.

Similar sidered desirable to treat such SADA areas at par data have been presented for the Standard Urban with other urban bodies like municipal corpora Areas in 1981 also. The idea is to present basic tions, municipal committees etc. and only that part data for those areas for four to five decades so that of it is treated as urban which is real1y so. As such the urbanisation process in these areas can be in the Korba SADA area only Korba town has been studied. However, there have been minimum changes treated as urban and rest of the area remains in the in the constituent units of the Standard Urban rural frame. Areas of 1981 Census as compared to those of 1971, but the list of SUA remained unchanged. Urban Agglomeration: SiZe Class of Towns: Apart from town/city the 1971 concept of The urban areas are classified into 6 classes urban agglomeration is also adopted for the 1981 referred to as towns of Class I to VI. The classifi census.

Such areas may not by themselves Class II towns 50,000 to 99,999 qualify to be treated as towns but if they form ~ Class III towns 20,000 to 49,999 contiguous spread with the town, they are out Class IV towns 10,000 to 19,999 growths of the town and deserve to be treated as Class V towns 5,000 to 9,999 urban. Such towns together with their outgrowths Class VI towns Less than 5,000 have been treated as one urban unit and called 'urban agglomeration'. An urban agglomeration It is customary to treat a town having a popu. may constitute :- lation of 1 lac and above as a city. (a) A city with continuous outgrowth, (the Census House : part of outgrowth being outsid e the statu tory limits but falling within the bound.

A new concept of Standard Urban Area intro duced in ]971 census will also be followed for the In some cases, however, it was difficult to 1981 Census. The essential requirements for the apply the definition strictly. For example, in an constitution of a Standard Urban Are~ are- urban area, a flat has five rooms, each having direct 5 entrance to the commOn staircase or courtyard Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes which by definition had to be treated as five census houses.

In such cases singleness of Scheduled Tribes Order (Amendment) Act, 1976 use was taken into consideration to avoid undue (108 of 1976).

This will be district, al also the adjoining districts of North obvious from the data given below- Madhya Pradesh Bhind, Morena, Datia and Shiv puri have comparti vely lower work participat ion ------rates. Tne one reaSOD may be that this area is Percentage of m~in workers engaged as adjacent to Rajasthan and percentage of Rajput Cultivator + Agricultural Labol'rer caste is more predominent in tbifl area. Amongst 1961 52.1% Rajput caste the purdah system is mOre rigid and the practice of women working in the fields and or 1971 50.5 % offices is still tabooed. Even if they work they 1981 46.5 % want to conceal this fact. Another reason may be ------the insecure conditions in the dacoity areas due to which women might not be. working in the fields in Another imp'Jttant feature is that the percent rural areas. age of marginal workers in 1981 is larger amongst females than males. It is so very natural. Males Another important feature of work paJ ticipa are either whole time or 'main workers' or non tion rates is that there is a shift of workers engaged workers and very few as marginal workers. , 26 srftrf\;fqo 11. sr. ~T;n~ (9;I'~TQ'rtur) f~ifi'ti 12 11T:;f 79 ,!lSo 715 ~ ~.:rTifn:r WHlif fCf\TT'T 'frqoTw, fG"rri'fi 12 'fT'ii 1 979 'JIi. 379-~oR~-~) 79-lf~q!il~ if~,{ q'Tf~'fiT fif~iT ~fQ'fiflf11 1956 ('!filft~ 23~"t. \956) 'liT IfTtT40S 'liT ~T~T (3) Q'T'{T sr ~ifjifi mif 'fiT 1 2 :3 4 5 1 ~iiflf:!,{ 25 647.387 2 ~"li 9;fiiflfl'{ 26 84 ,4,77 3 'f 6 iirT~pnC!: 43 137.254 7 \TTG~') 43 426.801 8 :qCfif~'{crT~ "filft'fi 1 Cf 2 26 162.509 9 :q;:~~T t 14 'fi(:#lfTur~~ 38 2.096 15 ~~n::'i~ 43 466.226 16 ~f,{lfT ifT"" 35 140.281 17 fCfiWifiirT'T 37 57.004 18 if)ZT ~1l'fi~ 41/1 511.655 19 !firzr Cfluif 43 15. 145 20 1J~~qtCf 42 1 ,633.667 t~ ~ Pl' 'fiT 9;1" lUff : e'lc.:f'ti~ crcflfT 22 If'\iiJ~~ 34 339.129 23 lfT !lilfi 29 ~Ti{) Wilifl' ( .lf1o) Hl'~ ) 34 479.163 30 ~rlf~ 33 723.009 31 l.:iif+fif 38 39.733 32 ~r.fT~~T 38 ]19.743 33 n~ 33 246.4~0 34 lli!fi~~~ 37 545.267 35 ~~~ 35 198.700 36 iij~ 37 100 444 37, ~h2;'t 26 97.273 38 f~~T~ 26 1,168.857 39 ~~I:!; 25 627.887 ;;;:~ ~Trrl 'Tlfl !fiT ij' 'filer: if);_;rqj;:;f ilfflfrrr iflJ'~ fif IJ'lf ~)ifT it ~ ! 41 ~'hf\if' q;T~ 38 253.008 42 'i1fiq~ ~~r S4 128.504 : 43 lfti~1 56 236.779 44 lf~tT;:;fT 55 463.000 45 ~T~TOf~~ 47 402.042 46 G1i1T~2;~ 53 193.030 47 E)fglfr~r 55 64·750 48 GtlJ'~,!~ 47 360.352 49 flJ'~IJ'Tii 57 698.500 SO ~~~Irr lfi~t 53 528.955 ~~ ;;rTtr !fiT ~. wcr: eT'<;Tlfi1Jf ~nflfT if ifn.~ f;:rlJ'1J ~rlfr if ~f~lff~ (J ~ I 51 ~~an.
