PREFAOE GENERAL The District Censub Handbook for each District contaimng all basic details of population for all villages and towns in the District along with other administrative ~tatistic~. was first brought out by Census Organisation in 1951 and was published by the State Government. The contento; of the Handbook was improved upon during 1961 Census. and was found to be useful as a reference book for research scholars, State and Central Governments, Local Bodies and Private Institutions. Dudng 1971 Census also. it was decided to improve the contents of the District Cen'>us Handbook further :md continue this useful publication by the State GO\ crnment. As a consequence, the Di~trict Cen~us Handbook of 1971 CCTl~US is being published in three volumes viz., Part A-Village and Town Directory, Part B-Village and Townwise Primary Census Abstract and Part C-Analytical Report and Administrative Statements and District Censu!'. Tables. The present vol ume viz., Pan B. gives Village and Urban Blockwise Primary Censu!> Abstract which il> similar to the information contained in V iUage and Town Directory published in 1961. PRESENTATION OJ:' STATISTICS FOR REVENUE VILLAGEjPANCHAYAT The Primary Censu~ Abstnld, as it is caned, pre!-.cl1t::. data for each village or segment of a village in the .• Villagewise Primary Census Abstract" and for each ., Enumerator Block" of a Town in the "Urban Blockwise Primary Census Abstract ". The data are given by sex and industrial categories of workers besides non-workers. In the case of towns, the total figures for each ward and the town total are also given at the end of the concerned Enumerator Block figures. In the 1961 Census Handbook, lhe data for rural areas were presented for each Panchayat while figures were presented for villages alone wherever these were not comtituted into a separate Panchayat. With a view to ensure comparability and to enable data users to derive the figures either for a Revenue village or Panchavat '{ccording to their requirements, the data are now presented for ~egments of villages also wherever portions of one village happen to form part of two or more Panchayats. For example, if portion:. of a revenue village bearing L. C. No. 12 forms part of two Panchayat!>, the figures are given separately for each portion of the village against L. C. No. 12 aJb and bib. The total figures for the entire revenue village may be ,)btained by adding the figures given against both the segments viz., 12 alb and 12 bib. If instead, the Pancbayat figures are required, the cross references for the other segment of the Panchayat, if any, printed in the Appendix to the Vlliagewise Primary Ccnsu,> Abstract may be taken note of and the figures for concerned Location Code number" ,ldded to arrive at the total figures for the respective Panchayats. ([,HANGES IN THE INDUSTRIAL CATEGORIES, 1961-'71 The Industrial categories of workers for which the data are presented m this V0htme are· I Cultivators II Agricultur~l Labourers HI Live<;tock, Forestry, fl<;hing, Hunting &; Plant.itlon'-., Orchard ... and Allied activitie,> (vi) IV Mining and Quarrying V Manufacturing, Processing. Servicing and Repairs (a) Household Industry (b) Other than Household Industry VI Constructicn VlI Trade and Commerce VIII Transport, Storage and Communications and IX Other S~f\'ices. In this table, the departure from 1961 Census Table is in respect of assigning a separate category to Mining and Quarrying, i.e. category IV as against a combined category of Mining. Quarrying. Livestock. Forestry, Fishing, Hunting and Plantations, Orchards and Allied activities in 1961. The 1961 category IV-Household Industry is now included in category V -Manufacturing. Processing, Servicing and Repairs­ treating it as a sub-category. [V (a)]. At the 1961 Census, .. Household Industry" covered establishments falling under Divisions " 0 " and " I ., of the National Industrial Classification e.g. Cattle rearing, Orchard keeping, Plantations etc., apart from Divisions "2" and "3 ". At the i971 Census, Household Indu<;try is confined to Divisions '2' and • 3' only i. e., it covers Manufacturing, Processing, Servicing or Repairing services only. MODE OF PRESENTATION The consolidated figure<; for the district and each taluk are given in the beginning for Total, Rural anJ Urban areas llnder the caption' District Primary Census Abstract '. An alphabetical list of revenue villages is then given along with the Census Location Code Numbers of 1971 anJ I Y61 to enable c,.)mparison. Then the Villagewise Primary Cenc;us Abstract is printed. In the aprendix given at the end of the Villagewise Primary Census Abstract. the Panchayats consisting of pOl tions or whole of 2 or more revenue villages are furnished with nec.essary cross-references of Location Code numbers, so as to enable collection of data for Panchayats. Then follows the Urban Blockwise Primary Census Abstract. In the appendix to the Urban Blockwise Primary Census A.bstract. the details of the number of House Numbering Ward,'Block and the name and numbers of streets as well as the door numbers which constitute each Enumerator Block are given. This arrangement is followed for each taluk and independent sub-tal Ilk in the district. MAPS Apart from the District Map given as frontispiece, • map relating to each taluk showing details of Revenue Village numbers along with their boundaries are also printed and appended at the appropriate places As compared with the maps presented in 1961 District Census Handbook several improvements have been effected in the maps presented in this volume. 1 he depiction of revenue village boundaries in the maps is a notable change in 1971 Census. All towns are shown in the District and Taluk maps with shading screens and also spheres according to the population size of towns. AREA FIGURES In the Dlstrict Primary Census Abstract, the area figures are given in Square Kilometres for TotaL Rural and Urban area.;;. In the Villagewise Primary Census (vii) Abstract, the area figures for each Location Code Unit are given m Hectares. The area figure for each -town is also given at the end of the Urban B10ckwise Primary Census Abstract in Square Kilometres. In the District Primary Census Abstract, the area figures of the District Total represent the "Geographical Area" figures supplied by the Surveyor-General. Figures for Urban areas are those supplie1 by the Local Bodies. The Urban area of a district has been arrived by adding the urban area figures of eacf, taluk within the district. Area figures for the rural areas of District/Taluk are derived by subtracting the urban area figures from the total alea of the District/Taluk. I he total of the area figures of the taluks will not tally wi.th the district figure<; b~causc the taluk area figures represent the • land u:.e' area and are derived f(om the figures supplied by the Tamil Nadu Directorate of Survey ,1l1d Land Records, while those of the district represent "Geographical Area" supplied by the Surveyor-General of India. The total of the village areas given in the Villagewise Primary Census Abstract may not tally with the rural area of the taluk given in the District Primary Census Abstract as the taluk area figures take into account hills, forel>ts, flvers, etc., wherea~ the village area may not include the same, For conversion, the ratIO is 10) Hectares= I Sq. K m. URBAN AGGLOMERATIONS During 1971 Census, a ne\\- conc~pt called "Urban Agglomeration" has been introduced. It is COll1mOn knowledge that in several places, around a core CJty or a statutory Town, there is sub-urban growth comisting of railway and other residential colonies, university campuses, port area", industrial areas, etc., and these areas are sometimes outside the statutory limits of the core City or Town.

  • Hydrogeochemical Characteristics of Groundwater in Kumbakonam Taluk, Thanjavur District, Tamil Nadu
    Volume 2, Issue 10, October– 2017 International Journal of Innovative Science and Research Technology ISSN No: - 2456 – 2165 Hydrogeochemical Characteristics of Groundwater in Kumbakonam Taluk, Thanjavur District, Tamil Nadu T. Thamilarasan, N. Naganathan and K. Sankar Department of Industries and Earth Sciences, Tamil University, Thanjavur-10 [email protected] Abstract:-Kumbakonam is a well developed maritime district of Tamil Nadu. Groundwater has been the mainstay for domestic needs of more than 80% of population in the district. Dug wells with a density of around 150 per sq km are the major groundwater based structures along the surface level. Groundwater has been the principle source of water supply for the Kumbakonam town and along the urban area. The groundwater withdrawals need be regulated to avoid any possible seawater ingress. Characterization by factor analysis of hydrochemistry of Kumbakonam Taluk has been attempted in this paper. Factor analysis assumes that observed variables are products of linear combinations of some few underlying source variable known as factors. Factor analysis has not been a major tool in the study of groundwater geochemistry as has been demonstrated in several studies (Lawrence and Upchurce, 1983; Olobaniyi and Owoyemi, 2006; Aris et al. 2007; Gallardo and Marui, 2007; Ramesh Kumar and Figure.1 Location Map. Riyazuddin, 2008). The present study was set to determine has factors that significantly control the II. DRAINAGE chemistry of groundwater in the phreatic aquifers of Kumbakonam taluk. Kumbakonam Taluk are found to the sub-dedritic pattern. A drainage pattern in which the stream is oriented in a similar direction, but which lacks the regularity of the parallel Key words:-Hydro Geochemistry, Formula, SAR, RSC, pattern may be designated as sub-parallel.

  • Chapter – I Introduction
    CHAPTER – I INTRODUCTION 1.1 Growth of agriculture Agricultural progress has emerged as a potential strategy to economic progress in most developing countries for which India cannot be exceptional. Failures on agricultural front would create formidable problems for future development of any country. China gave priority to agriculture in order to absorb the surplus rural population and use its growing productivity for local diversification. All people realized the importance of the agricultural sector, particularly in the context of the growing rural population. Agricultural development should receive top priority because cost effective production can be raised more easily in this sector than in any other sectors. A country cannot think of a large-scale transfer of the farming population to non-farming sectors without sufficient food surpluses or considerable reduction in food deficits. A rise in agricultural productivity precedes or accompanies economic development. 1 Extensive use of modern inputs gradually leads to greater commercialization and increased levels of agricultural produce. This would help farmers not only to produce more output per unit area, but also to generate surplus crop which would contribute to economic development, raise of income levels of farmers and meet the food requirements of the ever- increasing population. An increased market surplus resulting from commercialization of agriculture would help in releasing labour force from agricultural sector to non-agricultural sector without causing a decline in agricultural output. The boost in agricultural exports would enable the country to import the much needed capital goods and other raw materials required for rapid industrialization. Four main stages in the agricultural development process in the rural sectors are (i) Traditional subsistence agriculture (ii) Institution- building development (iii) Institution-based development and (iv) Capital intensive development.
