PREFACE It has been the practice si~ce 1951 to publish for each District a Census Handbook. containing the Census Statistics for each Village and town in the District together with certain administrative statistics collected from the various Departments of the State Government. This pUblication was compiled by the Census Department and published by the State Govefllment. The contents of the District Census Handbook have been considerably improved during the subsequent Censuses and in 1971 this pUblication is being brought out in three s~parate parts-
