Kotalpur Police Station 467 FOREWORD The district census handbook (DCH), compiled by the Census Organisation on behalf of the State Governments, is one of the most valuable products of the Census. The OCH is constantly referred to by planners, administrators, academicians and researchers. It is inter alia used for delimitation 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 Primary Census Abstract (PCA) data upto village level for the rural areas and wardwise 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 the 1951 Census. It contained important census tabies and PCA for each village and town of the district. During 1961 Census the scope of the DCH wlJ,s enlarged and it contained a descriptive account of thc district, administrative statistics, census tables and a village and town directory, including PCA. The 1971 DCH series was planned in three parts. Part-A related to "illage and town directory, :i>art-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 am~nity 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 1981 DCH series some new features along with the restructuring of the formats of village and town directory have been attempte...d. At the same time, comparability with the 1971 data has also be'en kept in view. All the amenities except power supply in the village have been brought together in the village directory with the instructiou that in case an amenity is not available in the referrent village the distance in broad ranges from the nearest place where 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 relation to amenities and land-use p3.ttern is expected to further meet the need of micro level planning for rural areas. It is eX'pe~ted to help not only in local area planning but regulating the provision of goods and services as well so as to minimise the regional imbalan6e3 in the process of development. A few new items of information have also been introduced to meet some of tjle requirements of the Revised Minimum Needs Programm_e. Such new items of information as adult literacy centres, primary health sub-centres, and community health workers in the village ,have been introduced in the village directory with this objective in mind. The new item on approach to the village is to have an idea about the villages in the district whic]1 are inaccessible. A new column, "total population and number of households" has 'been introduced to examine the correlation of the amenities with the population and number of households they aerve. Addition of two more appendices listing the villages where no amenities are available and accor,ding to the proportion of scheduled caste and scheduled tribe 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 the Minimum 'Needs Programme by providing information on a few new :ems." A new statement on civic and other amenities in slums in Cla~s-I arid Class-II towns (Statement IV-A) has been introduced with this objective in mind. It is expected that this will help the planners to !Shalk, out programmes on provision of civic amenities for the improvement of slums. The columns on Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes population in statement IV relating to civic and other amenities a.nd ad1,llt literacy classes/centres under educational facilities in statement V are also added inter alia with this view: A significant addition is class of town in all the seven statements of the town directory. The infrastructure of amenities in urban areas of the country can be best analysed by taking the class of towns into consideration. The addition of the columns on civic administratiou statuI and ,PQpl!liation in a few statements also serves this purpose. VllI 1 Il'he format of the primary census abstract for the villages and ·towns has been formulated in the light or changes in the economic and other questions canvassed through the individual slip of 1981 Census. In order to avoid delay in publication of 1981 DCH series it has been so designed that Part-A of the volume contains -village and fawn 'directory and Part-B, the PCA of villages and towns including the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes PCA upto Police Station/Tahsil/Town lavels. At the beginning of the, DCH a detailed' analytical nNe supported by a number of inset tables based on PCA and non. census' (lala in relation to the infrastruc;ture has been introduced to enhance its value. The district and Police Station level maps depicting the boundaries and other important features have been inserted at appropriate places, to further enUance the value' of the publication. Tbis publication is a joint venJure of the State Government and tbe Census Organisation. Th~ data: have been collected and complied in the state under the direction of Shri S. N. Ghosh, lAS, the Duector of Censl1s O'perations, 'West Bengal on behalf of State Government which has borne the cost or printing. The task of planning, designing and co-ordination of this publication was carr~ed out. by Shil N. G. Nag, Deputy Registrar General (Social Studies) of my office. Dr. B. K.
