The DCH is constantly referred to by planners, administrators, academicians and researchers. It is inter ~lia used for delimi tation of constituencies, formulation of local level and regional plans and as an aid to District administration. Tbe district census handbook is the only publication which provides Primary Census Abstract (PCA) data upto village lev..:! 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 the 1951 Census It contained important Census tables and PCA for each village and town of the 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 town 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, administrdtive 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 districl census tables and in a few Chses altogether given up due to delay in compiJation 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 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 biOught together in the village directory with the instru<..tion 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 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 plannmg but regulating the provision of goods and services as wet! so as to minimise the regional imbdlances in the process of development. A few new items of information have also been irtroduced to meet some of the requirements of the Revis~d Minimum Needs P(ogramme. 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 cl irectory with this objectives in mind. The new item on approach to the vil1age is to have an idea about the villag::-s in the district which are imccessible. A new column, "total popUlation and n umber of households" has betn introduced to examine the correlation of the amenities with the popUlation and number of households they serve. Addition of two more appmdices listing the villages where no amenities are available and according to the proportion of schedul~d castes and scheduled tribes population to the total population has also betn mane WIth this view in mind. The formats of the town directory have also been modified to meet the reqUirements of the Minimulll Needs Programme by providing information on a few new items. A new statement on civic and other amenities in slums in class-I and CJass-lI towns (Statement IV-A) has been introduced with this objective in mind. It is expected that this will help the planners to chalk out programmes on provision of civic amenities for the impro" ement of slums. The columns on Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes population in statement IV relating to civic and other amenities and adult literacy classes/centres under educational facilities in statement V are also added inter alia with this view. A significant add ition is dass of town in all the seven statements of the town directory. The infrastru cture of amenities in urban areas of the country can te 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 census abstract for the villages and towns bas been formulated in the lig ht of changes in the economic and other questions canvassed through the individ ual slip of 198 I cens us. 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 town d1rectory and Part-B the peA of villages and towns including the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes PCA upto Tahsil/Town levels. At the beginning of the DCR a detailed analytical note supported by a number of inset tables based on PCA and non-census data in relation to the infrastructure has been introduced to enhance its value. The district and tahsil/police stationjC D Block etc. level maps depicting the boundaries and other important features have been inserted 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 of Shri K. C. Dubey, the Director of Census Operations, Madhya Pradesh on behalf of the State Government which has borne the cost of printing. The task of planning, designing and coordination of this publication was carried out by Shri N. G. Nag, Deputy Registrar General (Social Studie5) of my office. Dr. B. K. Roy, Deputy Registrar General (Map) provided the technical 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 ShriM. M. Dua, Senior Research Officer. I am thankful to all who have contributed in the project. P. PADMANABHA REGISTRAR GENERAL, INDIA New Delhi the 26th April, 1982. PREFACE One of the most important publications of the Census are the District Census Handbooks. This publication was begun in this caption since 1951 Census. But prior to this, a similar publication was released in the Census earlier than 1951. That publication was on the title of ViIJage Statistics and it contains only village names and total population thereof. The 1951 Census could, therefore, be said to represent a significant step in the process of making detailed Census statistics available down upto the village level. In fact the District Census Handbook is the most important publication at the Census and is also perhaps the most widely used. Also perhaps \~is is the only publication used at the microplevel down upto the tahsil and development block. The form of the District Census Handbook has gone considerable change since 1951. This is basically due to the growing demand for more information. For the purpose of convenience as well as with a view of making the basic statistics available with the data users as early as possible the District Census Handbooks ha~e 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 almost all the non-Census statistics available at one place. Part-B contains the Primary Census Abstract. One of the innovation of the present Census has been in terms of allotment of Location Code numbers to the villages. In the earlier Censuses the location code system WaS such that the villages of a Patwari Circle were found at different serial 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 available. Since these requests were received very late and were aiso received only in an informal manner, it has not been possible to disturb the original planning of villages arranged according to the location code numbers taking tahsil as one unit. However, additional exercise has been done and in addition to the tahsil figures blockwise figures have also been indicated. It is hoped that the availability of 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 that the proper implementation of policy depends on the ability of the administratIOn authorities concerned. It may be remembered that the villagewise area figures given in the Primary Census Abstrac[ and the Village Directory are those based on the village papers while the tahsil totals given in peA are obtained from the Land Records deptt. which in many cases exclude forest area. vi The statistics that are contained in the district census band books are the result of a ma ssive and marathon exercise in the compilation and tabulation of voluminous statistics. The .compilation of the statistics contained in this volume was carried out by 9 Regional Tabulation Offices each under a Regional Deputy Director of Census Operations. These Regional Offices were run with the help of purely temporary staff-roughly about 1,500 Tabulafors, about 250 Checkers and about 80 Supervisors. I am grateful to my colleagues, the Regional Deputy Dlrectors and those temporary staff for the speed and accuracy in the editing and basic compilation of more than nearly 52:; lakh slips and nearly I lakh of household schedules. The compilation of village directory was taken up at the headquarters and I am equally srateful to the officers and staff who have worked whole heartedly on the jo~ 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 M. L. 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 Go vernment of Madhya Pradesh for having been so kind as to undertake the publication of these handbooks and to the Controller, Printing and Mationery. 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. OUf thanks are also due to Shri N. G. Nag, Deputy Registrar General (Social Studies) for all the help that we received from him and his section. K. C.
