A list showing the population of villages in each district was published after the 1891 Census. No such list was brought out in 1901. lIT 1911 Village Directories were prepared for all districts, but could be published only for 13 on account of th_e outbreak of the First World VVaI. At the 1921 Census they were published for all districts in the form of District Census Statistics. In 1931 they were compiled fo~ all districts, but were not publi~hed owing to financial stringency, leading to loss of valuable data. At the 1 Y41 Census even though restricted tabulation was undertaken on account of the Second World War, yet the utility of District Census Statistics was recognized and they were pub­ lished. At the Census of 1951 two volumes were brought out fa! each district­ the District Census Handbook and the District Population Statistics. Govern­ ment have decided to continue the publication of District Census Handbooks. The 1961 District Census Handbooks contain more data than ever published before. Village Directoiies, besides giving the population of villages by in­ dustrial categories, also contain useful information about schools, hospitals, post offices, etc. As revised District Gazetteers are going to be published, introductory matter in the District Census Handbooks has been given jn brief to avoid duplication. Information for the District Census Handbooks was collected mainly from three sources, viz., State Tabulation Office, District Officers, Heads of Depart­ ments and their district level officers. In all cases confirmation has been obtained from Heads of Departments concerned. I am extremely grateful ,to District Officers and. the various Heads of Departments for their whole hearted co­ operation in furnishing the desired information. It is hoped that the District Census Handbooks will prove useful to the various· Government departments and scholars. The printing of the Handbooks commenced from August, 1963. P. P.

Metalled roads connect Orai also with Kannauj in Farrukhabad district and Mahoba I. The district of Jalaun is situated in the in Hamirpur district. north-west of the Jhansi Division. It is bounded on the north and north-east by Etawah 4. The main physical features of the district and Kanpur, on the east by Hamirpur, on are largely determined by three rivers-the the south by Jhansi and to some distance Yamuna, the Betwa and the :pahuj-which Hamirpur, and on the west it has .common nearby encircle it. They are surrounded by boundary with Madhya Pradesh. It is situat­ a deep network of ravines running one to two ed between the parallels of 26° 27' and 25° 46' miles from the streams. These ravines are North latitude and 70° 52' and 78° 56' East succeeded by a belt of higher land the surface longitude. The area of the district is 4,~87 of which gradually falls the farther the river is sq. km. (1,771 sq. 'miles), i.e., less than an left behind. The high lands border on the average district. In area the district holds the khadar valleys of the Betwa and the Pahuj 33 rd position in the State.
