The Indian Census has a tradition to tabulate the data collecting during each decennial census on twin consideration of their utility to Government and other data users and the feasibility of production in a time-frame and within the available resources. The scope of tabulation of Census data is limitless. But the focus has always been to produce basic data as quickly as possible and in readily usable form. The present publication i.e. part IT-A contains A-series Tables together with several appendices and inset tables generated from the basic data presented In State/District Primary Census Abstract. The particulars of A-SerIes Tables included in this Volume is as under: Table A-I Number of Villages, Towns, Households, Population and Area. Table A-2 Decadal Variation in Population Since 1901 Table A-3 Villages by Population size Class Table A-4 Towns and Urban Agglomerations Classified by Population size class in 2001 with variation since 190 l. The final population data and its basic characteristics presented in this publication is based on the processing, editing and tabulation of actual data captured through household schedule at the Population Enumeration phase of Census of India 2001. The generation of Primary Census Abstract for the Census of India 2001 was a fully computerized exercise starting with the automatic capture of data through scanning of the Household Schedule to the compilation of Primary Census Abstract. In the 1991 Census, the final population totals and their basic characteristics at the lowest geographical levels. popularly known as the village/town Primary Census Abstract was compiled manually in 8 Regional Tabulation Offices established for this purpose in Gujarat State. In these Tabulation Offices, the Primary Census Abstract was generated at the village level for rural areas and town/ward level for urban areas by manual tabulation from the Household Schedule. For processing the huge volume of data collected at the Census of India 2001, a major technological change in the vital activity of data extraction (i.e. extracting information recorded on the Census forms and creating associated computer data files) was introduced, so as to fully computerize the subsequent processing activities of data pertaining to Census of India 2001. The Primary Census Abstract publication is brought out by Office of the Registrar General India (ORGI) centrally. A Series tables presented in this publication have been compiled on the basis of figures given in the Primary Census Abstracts. The compilation and tabulation of the data of A-Series Tables have involved a considerable amount of work which was ably completed by the Census Section of the Director of Census Operations. I am deeply indebted to Shri D. K. Sikri Additional Secretary (RGI) for his inspiration, valuable instructions and guidance received from time to time. I am also thankful to Shri K. N. Unni. Ex. Deputy Registrar General (C&T), Shri Anand Kumar.

·~ . ~ SECTION 1 - GENERAL NOTE 2 General Note
The first census of the third millennium and twenty first century conducted in 2001 has been the 14th continuous and uninterrupted Indian Census since 1872. Thus, 2001 Census while providing data on population and its characteristics will also made a transition from one century and millennium to another. This data will form the benchmark for framing of the welfare and development policies for the human beings living in this Country.
Tili 1931, census was a one night affair which mainly aimed at presenting a snapshot of the country's population. But since 1941 and upto 1991 Census, count was staggered and enumeration was being done on Individual Slips. However, in 2001 enumeration has been done on Household Schedules. The questionnaire has thus gone on changing according to the changing needs and requirements of the society and the country.
As a general rule, every person has to be enumerated at his normal place of residence, except those who are away from their normal places of residence through out the period of count. These persons have been enumerated at the place where they were first found by an enumerator during the enumeration period or during his revisional round. Houseless persons have been to be th enumerated at the places they were found on the night of 28 February, 2001.
The Census Act, 1948, forms the legal basis for conduct of population censuses in independent India. As in the past, the Census of India, 2001 has been conducted in two phases. During the first phase, the Houselisting Operation was conducted between April to September 2000. The second phase of census i e. Population Enumeration, was undertaken between February, th th th 9 to 28 February (both days inclusive) with a revisional round from 1 st to 5 March, 2001. The Census moment was 00.00 hours of 1st March, 2001, the referral time at which the snapshot of the population of the country was taken. This was a departure from the earlier census tradition, as until the 1991 Census (except 1971), the sunrise of 1st March of the relevant Census year was the census moment. The enumeration of houseless population was carried out on the night of February, 28, 2001.
This gigantic operation, (considered by many to be the single largest and complex peace time administrative exercise in the world) was made possible due to the door to door universal canvassing of the Household Schedule by about 2 million enumerator's and supervisors covering 593 districts, 5464 Sub-districts, 5161 towns and 638588 villages at the national level. The comprehensive Household Schedule which replaced the individual slip had three parts and two sides A and B. Part t contained the Location Particulars; Part II related to the Individual Particulars and Part III contained questions for Household engaged in Cultivation/Plantation (Annexure-I). The Part II of the Household Schedule had 39 columns and 23 questions all of which were universally canvassed and no sampling was resorted to during enumeration. To facilitate quick tabulation for bringing out Provisional Population Totals, provision for page totalling was made in the schedule itself for a few items namely population , males, females, population aged 0-6 years by sex, literates and workers and their categories by sex. The provisional population totals were put in the public domain on 30th March, 2001 i.e. within---weeks of the completion of the enumeration. Provisionaf Population Paper-I of 2001 and Supplement to Provisional Population paper-I of 2001 provided the basic statistics of the population, literates upto--district, sub-district and town level classified by sex. through the publication of Paper I, " and III of Provisional Population Totals. Subsequently, the distribution of population by rural and urban areas and economic activity characteristics of the population by rural and urban areas at districUsub-districtitown level were also released in electronic format.. All the provisional population totals released so far are also available on census website: http://www.censusindia.net.
3 In Jammu & Kashmir and certain snow bound areas of Himachal Pradesh and Uttaranchar the th population enumeration was conducted during 11th - 30 September, 2000 with the revisional round from 1st to 5th October, 2000. In Kinnaur district of Himachal Pradesh, the population enumeration had to be deferred due to flash floods in August 2000 a~d was conducted from 1ih to 31 st May, 2001 with reference date as 1sl June, 2001. In Jammu and Kashmir, due to certain constraints, the th enumeration period was extended from 1st October, 2000 to 15 November, 2000 with the reference date of 16th November, 2000 in the six districts viz., Srinagar, Badgam, Anantnag, Baramulla, Kupwara and Pulwama of Kashmir Valley and four blocks namely, Banihal, Ramso, Marwa and Wardwan of Doda district in Jammu Division. It was further extended in Srinagar town and Pulwama districts until 15 th December, 2000 with reference date being 16th December, 2000.
Further, due to the devastating earthquake in Gujarat on 26th January, 2001 just two weeks prior to the commencement of the nation wide population enumeration, the canvassing of the schedule in the affected areas of Gujarat had to be postponed. The affected areas included the entire district of Kachchh, the taluk of Morvi, Maliya-Miana a.nd Wankaner in Rajkot district and Jodiya 1h taluka in Jamnagar district. The population enumeration in these areas was undertaken during 9 - th 28 February, 2002 with 1 sl March, 2002 as the reference date.
In addition to the provisional population totals, the final results of the Houselisting Operations were released in April, 2003 which provided valuable information on the housing stock, amenities and assets available to the household which is available in the publication 'Tables on Houses, Household Amenities and Assets by StatesJUTs. Similar publications are also available for the Scheduled Caste and the Scheduled Tribe households separately. This data is also available in printed form and electronic format for the states/union territories at district, sub-district and town level. The Houselisting data can be immensely useful to the policy makers, planners and administrators to improve the quality of life for countrymen as well as to the corporate sector for formulating marketing strategies in reaching the rural masses.
A quantum leap has been made in the technology front while processing the census 2001 data both for Houselisting and population Enumeration. The Schedules for both the phases were scanned through high speed scanners in fifteen Data-centre and hand-written data from the schedules were converted into digitized form through Intelligent Character Reading (lCR) software for creation of ASCII records for further processing. The designing and formatting of the Household Schedule had to be done very carefully using specialized software so as to ensure uniformity, which was an essential prerequisite for scanning. The selection of appropriate state-of-art technology in data processing has made it possible to produce aU the Houselisting as well as population Enumeration tables on full count basis for the first time in the history of Census. For Census 2001, about 202 million Schedules consisting of about 1028 million records were scanned and processed within a span of only 10 months starting October, 2002.
After the data is processed, it is essential on the part of the data producing agency to satisfy itself about its quality before putting the same in public domain. This has to be done mainly through the process of internal consistency, comparison with similar data in the past and also through validation with likewise data if available, from external sources. Quite often, the local knowledge and perception has to be brought into play to understand both the existing and the new emerging trends of population distribution and characteristics. The other very important aspect of the data quality is to ensure complete coverage of all geographical areas specially for the population enumeration phase where the data is disseminated right up to the village level in the rural areas and the ward level in the urban areas. Thus, ensuring the complete coverage and correct geographical linkage of each enumeration block has always been one of the major planks of the quality control, especially for small area population statistics.
4 A very comprehensive check and edit mechanism was put in place to objectively examine the preliminary Census 2001 population Enumeration results and finally clear them for use. The responsibility for the final clearance of data was with the Task Force on Quality Assurance (TFQA), headed by the Registrar General and Census Commissioner, India. The other members of the TFQA were the Heads and senior officers of the Census Division, Data Processing Division, Map Division, Demography Division and Social Studies Division. The Directors and their senior officers were required to make detailed presentations of data for their co-opted as members whenever the TFQA discussed the data for their states/union territories. The Directors and their senior officers were required to make detailed presentations of data for their own state both in respect to the quality and coverage and only after the full possible satisfaction of the TFQA, the population data has been cleared. The preparations for the 2001 Census of India had commenced in 2000. First item of Preliminary work related to the preparation of up to date list of villages and towns at state or union territory/districUtahsil/town levels in view of the various jurisdictional changes that had taken place since 1991 Census. Draft questionnaires were developed based on past experience, the needs of the country to be served by the Census data, willingness of the people and response to the topics and the ability of the enumerators in understanding the definition and concepts. The questionnaires were presented at the first data users conference which was held during April, 1998 and attended by the representatives of the important Ministries of the Government of India, the Planning Commission, the CSO, the State Governments, Universities, Demographic and Population Institutes, Expert and Research institutions, and Individual experts and Scholars. Based on the deliberations in the Conference, the questionnaires were amended and placed before the Advisory Committee on Technical Issues Connected with holding the Census, which was appOinted by the Government of India in February, 1998. The questionnaires were again considered by the Action Committee and finalised by the Government. The final questionnaires were again considered by the Action Committee and finalised by the Government. The final questionnaires developed were (1) Houselist (2) the Household Schedule ..
f th The first Directors Conference was held from 23 <:l September to 25 September 1999 at Vigyan Bhawan, New Delhi in which topics related to State hierarchy, Rural and Urban frame work, formation of Urban Agglomeration, preparatory steps for conducting houselisting operation in the State, finalization of lists of Districts and Tahsils, Allotment of Location Codes to each village, delineation of houselisting Blocks, preparation of Charge Registers, Selection and appointment of Enumerators/ Supervisors/ Charge Officers, arrangements for distribution of material for houselisting, supervision during houselisting, publicity measures for houselisting, etc, were discussed in detail.
The second conference of Directors of Census operations was held at New Delhi from 3rd to th 5 February 2000 to review the preparatory work and arrangements for houselisting operations, storing and distribution of schedulesl instructions for houselisting Operations, disposal of 1991 Census records, discussion on houselist schedule and instruction manual, delineation of population enumeration blocks and preparation of abridged houselist and publicity for Census of India-2001 were discussed. th In third Directors Conference held at New Delhi on 26 & 2ih May 2000, the format of household schedule to be canvassed during the Census, manual for household schedule were discussed. Training conducted during houselisting Operations and training strategies proposed to be adopted and publicity measures to be taken to sensitize the public and awareness about the importance of Census. th During fourth Conference, held on 13 & 14th Nov, 2000 at New Delhi, position of receipt of houselisting record and its safe storage. Creation of population enumeration blocks & status of the
5 work of preparation of abridged houselist and training programme of Master Trainers etc., was discussed. During the fifth and last Conference of Dir~ctors was held at New Delhi on 18th _20 th Dec, 2001 in which progress of preparation of Provisional Paper-2 and 3, Village/Town Directories, methodology for checking of houselisting tables and finalization of PCA were discussed. Steps taken for pre scanning arrangements for houselist schedules and household schedules were reviewed. The following new questions were added in the Houselist Schedule of the Census 2001 : (i) The condition of residential or partly residential houses was categorized as good, liveable or dilapidated (Column 8). (This was mainly based on perception of the respondents ). (ii) A question on the number of married couple(s) living in the household was introduced (Column 18). (iii) Information was sought on the number of married couple(s) having independent rooms for sleeping (Column ~ 9). (iv) Information on whether wastewater outlet was connected to closed drainage or open drainage or no drainage (Column 24). (v) Availability of bathroom within the house (Column 25). (vi) Availability of kitchen within the house (Column 26). (vii) Availability of certain assets to the households, namely, radio/transistor, television, telephone, bicycle, scooter/ motorcycle/ moped, carl jeep/ vans (Column 28-33). (viii) Availability of banking services (Column 34). Besides adding new questions, improvement was also made in the format of Houselist Schedule of Census 2001 by modifying certain questions as shown below: (i) For the first time, different uses of census houses were standardised and grouped into ten main uses and assigned code numbers (Column 7). (ii) Plastic/Polythene was added in the list of materials of wall and roof of a census house (Columns 5 & 6). (iii) 'Outside premises' as a category of the location of drinking water source was further split up into two categories, namely, 'near the premises' and away from the premises' (Column 21). (iv) 'No lighting' was included as a response to the question on source of lighting ajong with other sources, namely, electricity, kerosene, solar, other oil and any other source (Column 22). (v) Specific information on availability of type of latrine within the house by the type of latrine was collected for all areas (Column 23). House Listing The following details were canvassed by the Census Enumerator during Houselisting. Building Particulars • Building Number (Municipal or local authority or census number) • Census House Number • Predominant material of the floor, wall and roof of the Census House • Use of the Census House • Condition of the Census House
6 Household Particulars • Household number • Total number of persons normally residing in the household • Name of the head of the household • Male/Female • Scheduled Caste or Scheduled Tribe or Other • Ownership status of the house • Number of dwelling rooms • Number of married couple(s) living in the household • Number of married couple(s) having independent room for sleeping Household Amenities: • Drinking water source (Type) • Drinking water source (Location) (within the premises, near the premises, away) • Source of lighting • Availability of latrine within the house • Waste water outlet connection • Availability of bathroom within the house • Availability of Kitchen within the house • Fuel used for cooking • Availability of Radio/Transistor • Availability of Television • Availability of Telephone • Availability of Bicycle • Availability of Scooter/Motor Cycle/Moped • Availability of Car/JeepNan • Availing Banking Services Household Schedule
The Household Schedule adopted for the population Enumeration also primarily had pre coded options for majority of the questions. The questions for each data item were made self explanatory as far as possible for easy understanding. The comprehensive Household Schedule had three parts and two sides A and B. Part I contained the Location Particulars; Part " related to Individual particulars and Part III contained questions for Households engaged in Cultivation/Plantation. It consisted of 39 columns as against 34 in 1991 Census and had been so designed as to record the data on Mother tongue and Religion of each individual. This was done for the expeditious computerised tabulation for the following:
(i) Primary Census Abstract with four fold industrial categories of both Main Workers and Marginal Workers upto village level or ward of a town. The basic Census data to be presented for each CD Block in rural areas all over the country in addition to other level like TahsillTalukalDistrictiState or UTs.
7 (ii) The mother tongue and religion data upto Tahsil/Town level. This wiH help releasing these tables which are in great demand within a reasonable time after conducting the Census.
Three types of Households viz: Normal, Institutional and Houseless household were recorded. Cols. 1 to 7 of Household Schedule were to be filled up before the enumeration of individual was taken up. These related to Serial No., Name and Relationship to Head, Sex (M. F.), Age and Marital Status of the member of the household. This helped in counting all members of the Household without missing none and in recording the age of the individual more precisely. Cols. 8 to 39 of the Household Scheduled pertained to General Social-cultural Characteristics, Characteristics of Workers and Non-Workers, Migration Characteristics and Fertility particulars. The particulars entered into the Household Schedule were to be treated as confidential.
Most of the questions canvassed during the 1991 Census, were retained for the 2001 Census, except the question on ex-serviceman. However, a number of new questions were added in the Household Schedule in view of the suggestions from policy makers, data users and researchers, while the scope of certain existing questions was modified. These changes were:-
1. Age at marriage was collected for males also, while it was collected for only ever-married females until the 1991 Census. 2. The type of educational institution attended by a person were school, college, vocational institute, other institute and literacy centre in 2001 instead of school and colJege in 1991 census.
3. The scope of the definition of 'work' was expanded in the Census of India, 2001, to include production of milk for domestic consumption. In the 1991 Census, cultivation of certain crops even for self-consumption was treated as economic activity. The scope of the term 'Cultivation' was expanded in this Census to include certain other crops such as tobacco, fruits, all types of flowers, roots and tubers, potatoes, chilies and turmeric, pepper, cardamom, all types of vegetables and fodder crops etc. This meant that activities related to production of all the above mentioned crops including that for domestic consumption were treated as work. Only five crops viz. Tea, coffee, rubber, coconut and betel nuts were classified under 'plantation' in the Census of India, 2001. 4. At the 1991 Census, the question on seeking/available for work was canvassed for only non workers. At the Census of India, 2001, this question was asked to the Marginal Workers also. A question to elicit information on secondary work of Main Workers canvassed at the 1991 Census was dropped.
5. From among the categories of non-workers adopted at the 1991 Census, the category 'Inmates of institutions' was dropped and 'Retired Persons and Rentiers' was replaced by the category 'Pensioners'.
6. A new response category 'Moved after birth' was included in the question on 'reasons for migratJon'. Natural calamities as a reason for migration from last residence included in the 1991 Census was excluded.
7. Number of children born alive to currently married women during last one year was collected with gender break up.
Besides the above modifications, the following new questions were canvassed at the 2001 Census: 1. A question on total disability was canvassed in the 1981 Census. In the 1991 Census, no question on disability was included. In 2001, a question to elicit information on total or partial disability was canvassed. The five types of disability on which information was collected were
8 - in seeing, in hearing, in speech, in movement and mental. Unlike in 1981 Census these questions were canvassed during population Census.
2. A new question on 'Travel to place of work' was canvassed mainly for workers engaged in non-agricultural activities. Information on distance from the residence to place of work and mode of travel to place of work was collected under this section. 3. The Household Schedule had a new set of questions for households engaged in cultivationJplantation- i) Net area of land under cultivation/plantation, ii) Net area of land irrigated and iii) Tenure status. This question was not canvassed at the 1991 Census but was canvassed in the 1981 Census in a slightly different form.
4. The signature or thumb impression of the respondent has been taken on the Household Schedule for the first time in the history of census. This was not only aimed at obtaining correct and complete information but for giving an opportunity to the respondents to authenticate the information provided by them. The relationship of the respondent with the head of the household was also obtained. This new feature will pave way in carrying out a methodological study in future on the respondent profile in the census.
Preparation of Maps
A Census must ensure that every person in the country is enumerated only once and without any omission. In order to achieve this, maps for all districts, taluks, tahsils, Community Development Blocks and ultimately for every village and town were prepared. Taking all jurisdictional changes that occurred after 1991 Census into consideration all administrative boundaries were made up-to-date. After identifying every village and town on a talukJtahsil mapJCommuntty Development Block code numbers were allotted to each of these units which were to be fully accounted for at the Census. Notional maps of every village and every ward/block of a town were prepared, showing location of every house. The notional maps, proved extremely helpful at the time of enumeration. They served as the frame for the clear demarcation of the enumerator's jurisdiction and enabled him to cover every household in his block and take note of additions that might have taken place after the preparation of notional map.
The Census Hierarchy
The Registrar General and Census Commissioner of India is responsible for conducting the population census which is a union subject under the charge of the Ministry of Home Affairs. He is assisted by several officers who look after the different branches of work within his office. Except Dadra & Nagar Haveli and Daman & Diu, every State and Union Territory has a permanent Directorate.
For each state and union territory an officer is appointed as Director of Census operations. He is directly responsible to the Census Commissioner of India for organising and supervising the census operations within his area. For 2001 Census, the Directors of Census Operations were in position by May, 2000. The Directors were assisted by a number of Deputy/Assistant Directors. Independent Census Directorates for three newly created States viz. Uttaranchal, Jharkhand and Chhattisgarh were not established. The Director of Census Operations Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and Madhya Pradesh were designated as Directors of Census Operations of Uttaranchal, Jharkhand and Chhattisgarh respectively.
It has been the Indian tradition that in view of the national importance of the census, the entire administrative machinery of the state and local government is also called upon to assist the state Director of Census Operations in census work. The 2001 Census hierarchy in the state or union territory followed the normal administrative set up. For each district, the administrative head of the district (the district collector} was designated as the district census officer who undertook the census duties in addition to his normal duties. In certain cases, however, some senior officer of the district
9 collector's establishment worked as district census officer, although the district officer himself remained responsible for the proper conduct of the census operations. The district census officer was • responsible for demarcating the census jurisdiction within the district, appointing and training enumeration personnel and the execution and supervjsion at every stage of census operations. The district was sub-divided into tehsils, talukas, than as, sub-division, blocks, police station etc., according to the administrative set up obtaining in each state. The chief administrative officer of each of the administrative divisions such as the tehsildar, block development officer was appointed as census charge officer for his area. Large cities were treated as separate census charge and the executive officer of the civic body appointed as census charge officer. For area such as military camps, project area, special industrial areas, railway colonies etc., special charge officers from the organisations concerned were appointed. All these officers were required to attend to census duties as part of his normal work. The smallest administrative unit was the village or town. For each village and each town, enumeration blocks were formed in such a way that each block covered about 750 population in rural areas and 600 in urban areas. For each of these enumeration blocks, a census enumerator was appointed. Some reserve personnel were also appointed and trained. Normally. a primary school teacher or village patwari or some other village level official in rural areas and teachers or clerical staff or other staff of local offices in urban areas were appointed as the census enumerators. A census supervisor supervised and guided the work of five or six enumerators. The supervisors were generally officials of the state or local bodies of a status higher than those appointed as enumerators. The enumerators and supervisors were also basically part-time honorary workers who undertook the census work more out of a sense of duty and spirit to help a great national task. There was a large number of census charge officers and district census officers who were all part time workers.
The enumeration staff performed their duties more as a labour of love. Till the 1951 census the enumerators were not paid anything at all. From 1961 on wards a small honorarium to each enumerator and supervisor was paid. This practice continued in 1971, 1981, 1991 and 2001 censuses also.
New Features of the Census of India, 2001
Several new innovations have been introduced at almost all the stages of the Census of India 2001 right from the preparatory efforts to the data processing and dissemination stage. This includes certain fundamental changes in the form and contents of the Houselist and Household schedules, while maintaining the continuity and comparability of the basic housing and population characteristics with the earlier census. Some of the new features introduced and innovations made in the Census of India 2001 are listed and discussed below.
Permanent Location Code Number
One of the important inputs in census taking is assigning of the Location Code Numbers at various administrative levels. The Location Code Number is a simple device by which every compact geographical area in any administrative unit can be uniquely identified. Each such administrative unit starting from State right down to the village/ward can be referred to by a combination of such unique numbers. Until the 1991 Census, a hierarchical coding system was followed, whereby each administrative unit was coded within the next higher administrative unit serially and systematically following a geographical order
The frequent changes in district and sub-district administrative units during the inter-censa! period posed several problems of study in changes in growth and distribution of population and their characteristics from one census to another. For the Census of India, 2001, a system of Permanent Location Code Numbers (PCLN) has been adopted by assigning to each village within the State/UT a continuous series from 1 to N. Each village has been assigned an eight digit code. The first six digit represent the code of the village as existing at the present census. The last two digits being "OO"are
10 kept for accommodating future changes in case of split of an existing village or creation of new villages etc. Since the Permanent Location Codes have been assigned to each village, theoretically tracing the precise location of village on account of future jurisdictional changes in the boundaries of various administrative areas within the state should not pose a problem It is imperative that under this scheme, the PLCN assigned to villages at the Census of India, 2001, are adopted in future censuses also to ensure the comparability of the data at the village and other administrative levels over a long time series.
Formation and Identification of Slum Enumeration Block
The phenomenon of rapid urbanization coupled with industrialization and growth in manufacturing and commercial centers leads to surfacing of slums. In various states, the slums are known by different local names officially and unofficially but the basic characteristics of slums remains the same such as inadequate lighting, lack of safe drinking water, absence of toilet facilities and non availability of basic social and health services. Slum enumeration Blocks were identified for the first time in census, in each Municipal town having a population of 50,000 Instructions were issued that these Enumeration blocks do not cut across ward boundaries or non-slum area. It will thus be possible to compile and tabulate special tables for 'slums'. This will enable the planners and administrators to visualize the impact and pressure on urban infrastructure and amenities on one hand and graphically capture the housing and demographic conditions of slum dwellers on the other.
Training - Inputs
Training has always been recognized as one of the most vital inputs for smooth and successful conduct of census. It is not a routine job, as it requires clear understanding of several census concepts. The enumerators are also to be reminded about the sensitivity of the different questions that are canvassed and given tips on the probing techniques. The training classes have to be properly structured with the right emphasis on each of the questions. The training strategies were chalked out well ahead of time for the Census of India, 2001. The Instruction Manuals for the Houselisting Operations and Population Enumeration were written up very elaborately, covering every possibJe situation so that the enumerators and supervisors can find solutions to all their problems that may arise during the course of their fieldwork. The Instruction Manuals also contained a number of appropriate examples and illustrations including filled-in sample schedules and probing methods for guidance of the enumerators.
The training of census officers in the Directorate of Census Operations started very early with the formation of four Analytical Groups as early as October, 1999. These Analytical Group meetings provided a platform to the census officers at all levels in the Directorate to analyse and review the several aspects of the quality and coverage of census data on Housing and population characteristics. The Director and at least one senior officer from each Directorate were trained in various census concepts in great details at these meetings. The Directors and their senior officers then took upon themselves the responsibility of training of other officials of herlhis Directorate and all other field census functionaries starting from the Principal Census Officer (District Collectors/Municipal Commissioners) to the Charge Officers (Tahsildars, Block Development Officer, Executive Officer of Municipalities etc.).
It has been our experience in the previous censuses that though the Charge Officers were mainly entrusted with the duties of imparting training to enumerators and supervisors, yet its impact was not uniform. The Charge Officers who are mainly drawn from Tahsildars, BOOs, Executive Officers of Municipal Council etc, were found to be largely pre-occupied with day-to-day administrative work and in some parts of the country could hardly devote continuously the time required to conduct a complete and proper training. Therefore, in a major departure from the past, a separate well equipped team of trainers called the 'Master Trainers' was created and engaged for training of enumerator and supervisor. These Master Trainers were mainly drawn from among
11 experienced Lecturers, Principals and other Government officials with good oratory and training skills. They were trained intensively at the district level, and in a few states at the state level. This enthusiastic brigade of Master Trainers in turn usually imparted training to enumerators and supervisors in a phased manner.
The training classes were by and large restricted to 70-80 participants per class. The traditional mode such as reading and explaining from the Instruction Manual, the chalk and b!ackboard approach and flip charts were also used in these training classes To make the training sessions interactive and interesting a number of training modules were conceived, devised and some NGOS also chipped in by participating in the training classes particularly for the questions on disability. In addition to the traditional approach this training was also supplemented with video films, audiocassettes, power point presentations, overhead slide projectors, question -answers, mock demonstrations etc. A combination of different modules was used according to the local requirements. The practical training was made a compulsory part of all training sessions. Each census functionary was insisted upon to fill in five practice blue Household Schedules as a part of the practical training. The supervisory officer/Master Trainer checked these practice schedules and common discrepancies and mistakes were clarified 011 an individual basis as also in an open forum in the presence of all enumerators and supervisors before the final round of training.
A team of dedicated and specially selected Census Advisors imparted special training to Enumerators/Supervisors on gender related issues in Census of India, 2001. In these training sessions correct capture of age data, female population and their economic pursuits were emphasized with the help of census data and training modules. For each district, a group of very experienced and trained directorate officials was deputed to back-up these training efforts. The Director and other senior officials undertook intensive training to sort out all types of problems on the spot. The district administration provided the necessary support through their active involvement during the two months long training period.
Post Enumeration Survey (PES)
Post Enumeration Survey (PES), which was earlier known as Post Enumeration Check (PEC) has become an jntegral part of the census operations in India since 1951. Till the earlier censuses, the Post Enumeration Survey used to be conducted only after the population enumeration but for the first time in the Census of India, 2001, a PES of the Houselisting Operations was also conducted after the completion of the Houselisting Operations in sixteen major states including Delhi. The main objectives of the PES for the Census of India, 2001, were (i) to get an estimate, of under coverage of census houses, (ii) to get an estimate of under coverage of population and (iii) to provide an estimate of the extent of the content error with respect to certain selected data items. The sampling frame used for selection of samples for conducting the PES of the Houselisting Operations were the sample units of the Sample Registration System (SRS) unlike the PES of the population enumeration, where the Enumeration Blocks (EB) were used as the sampling frame.
In 1991 and earlier censuses, the PES used to be conducted in certain selected states based on the criteria of the size of the population. However, in this census, the PES was conducted in all the states and union territories of the country. In the 1991 Census, for measuring the content error, a ten per cent sub sample of households enumerated in census was selected from each Enumeration Block and the usual residents in those households were listed along with certain particulars. But at the Census of India, 2001, PES of all the households in the sampled EBs were listed along with certain particulars. Since the PES estimation methodotogy is based on the assumption of independence between the PES and the census operations, wherever possible, the field work in the states was carried out by the staff of the State Governments. who were specially trained for the purpose.
12 Basic Census Concepts and Definitions-Census 2001
It is important for the data users to familiarize themselves with the concepts and the definitions of the terms used for proper appreciations of the data contained in this publication At the same time, it is all the more important to understand the implications of the terms used at the Census of India 2001, for making meaningful comparisons of the similar data generated by various other agencies wlthin the country and with the data produced by other countries in the world. The concepts and definitions adopted at the Census of India, 2001 are as given below: Generally speaking, persons who were present in the household during the entire period of enumeration or who were known to be usual residents of the household and have stayed there for part of the enumeration period or who were not present at the time of visit of the enumerator but were expected to return by 28th February, 2001 were eligible to be enumerated. For the purpose of enumeration the following persons were enumerated in a household Rural and Urban Areas: Census data have always been presented for rural and urban areas separately. The basic unit for rural areas is the revenue village which has definite surveyed boundaries. The revenue village may comprise several hamlets but the entire village has been treated as one unit for presentation of data. In unsurveyed area, like villages within forest areas, each habitation area with locally recognised boundaries within each forest range officer's beat, was treated as one unit. In the census of India 2001, the definition of urban area adopted was as follows :- (a) All places with a municipality, corporation, cantonment board or notified town area committee etc. (b) A place satisfying the following three criteria Simultaneously: (i) a minimum population of 5,000; (ii) at least 75 per cent of male working population engaged in non agricultural pursuits; and (iii) a density of population of at least 400 per sq. km. (1,000 per sq. mile) For identification of places which would qualify to be classified as 'urban' all villages, which, as per the 1991 Census had a population of 4,000 and above, a population density of 400 persons per sq. km. and having at least 75 per cent of male working population engaged in non-agricultural activity were considered. To work out the proportion of male working population referred to above against (b) (ii) the data relating to main workers were taken into account. Apart from these, the outgrowths (OGs) of cities and towns have also been treated as urban under 'Urban Agglomerations'. Examples of out-growths are railway colonies, university campuses, port areas, military camps etc. that may have come up near a statutory town or city but within the revenue limits of a village or villages contiguous to the town or city. Each such individual area by itself may not satisfy the demographic criteria laid down at (b) above to qualify it to be treated as an independent urban unit but may deserve to be clubbed with the towns as a continuous urban spread. Thus, the town level data, wherever presented, also includes the data for outgrowths of such towns. City Towns with population of 1,00,000 and above are called cities. Urban Agglomerations At the 1961 Census, the concept of 'Town Group' was adopted to obtain a broad picture relating to urban spread. This was refined in 1971 with the concept of 'Urban Agglomeration' to obtain better feed back in regard to urban contigUity, processes and trends of urbanisation and other related matters. This concept without any change or modification has remained operative in the 1981, 1991 and 2001 censuses. An Urban Agglomeration forms a contjnuous urban spread and normally consists of a town and its adjoining urban outgrowths (OGs), or two or more physically contiguous
13 towns together with contiguous well recognised outgrowths, if any, or such towns. A place is identified as an out growth as follows In several areas around a core city or statutory town fairly large well recognised railway colony, university campus, port area, military camp etc. might have come up Even if such places are lying outside the statutory limits of the corporation, municipality or cantonment etc. in most of the cases they fall within the revenue limit of the village or villages which is or are contiguous to the town. Since such areas are already urbanised it is not considered realistic to treat such areas lying outside the statutory limits of a town as rural units, although a few of them may not satisfy some of the prescribed eligibility tests to qualify themselves as independent urban units. Such areas have been termed as outgrowths (OGs) and reckoned along with the town. Each such town together with its outgrowth(s) is treated as an integrated urban area and is designated as an 'urban agglomeration'. An urban agglomeration, therefore, constitutes: (i) A city or a town with a continuous outgrowth, the outgrowth being outside the statutory limits but falling within the boundaries of the adjoining village or villages; or (ii) Two or more adjoining towns with their outgrowths, if any, as in (i) above; or (iii) A city and one or more adjoining towns with or without outgrowths all of which form a continuous spread.
Household
A 'Household' is usually a group of persons who normally live together and take their meals from a common kitchen unless the exigencies of work prevent any of them from doing so. Persons in a household may be related or unrelated or a mix of both. However, if a group of unrelated persons live in a Census house but do not take their meals from the common kitchen, then they are not constituent of a common household. Each such person was to be treated as a separate household. The important link in finding out whether it was a household or not was a common kitchen. There may be one member households, two member households or multi-member households.
A household with at least one Scheduled Caste member is treated as Scheduled Caste Household. Similarly a household having at least one Scheduled Tribe member is treated as a Scheduled Tribe Household.
Institutional Household
A group of unrelated persons who live in an institution and take their meals from a common kitchen is called an Institutional Household Examples of Institutional Households are boarding houses, messes, hostels, hotelS, rescue homes, jails, ashrams, orphanages, etc. To make the definition more clearly perceptible to the Enumerators at the Census 2001, it was specifically mentioned that this category of households would cover only those households where a group of unrelated persons live in an institution and share a common kitchen.
Houseless Household
Households who do not live in buildings or census houses but live in the open on roadside, pavements, in hume pipes, under fly-overs and staircases or live in the open in places of worship, mandaps, railway platforms, etc., are treated as Houseless Households.
Head of the Household
The head of the household for Census purpose is a person who is recognized as such by the household. She/He is generally the person who bears the chief responsibility for managing the affairs of the household and takes decision on behalf of the household. The head of the household need not necessarily be the eldest male member or an earning member, but may be a female or a younger member of either sex. In case of an absentee de jure (head) who is not eligible to be enumerated in
14 the household, the person on whom the responsibility of managing the affairs of household rests has to be regarded as the head irrespective whether the person is male or female.
Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes
Article 341 of the Constitution of India provides that the President may, with respect to any State or Union Territory, specify the Castes, Races or Tribes or parts of or groups within Castes, Races or Tribes which shall, for the purposes of the Constitution, be deemed to be Scheduled Castes in relation to that State or Union Territory. Similarly, Article 342 provides for specification of Tribes or Tribal Communities or parts of or groups within Tribes or Tribal Communities which are to be deemed for the purposes of the Constitution to be Scheduled Tribes in relation to the various States and Union Territor!es. In pursuance of these provisions, the list of Scheduled Castes and / or Scheduled Tribes are notified for each State and Union Territory and are valid only within the jurisdiction of that State or Union Territory and not outside.
It is important to mention here that under the Constitution (Scheduled Castes) Order, 1950, no person who professed a religion different from Hinduism was deemed to be a member of a Scheduled Caste in addition to every member of the Ramdasi, Kabirpanthi, Majhabi or Sikligar Caste, resident in Punjab or Patiala and East Punjab States Union in relation to that State whether they professed the Hindu or the Sikh religion. Subsequently, in September 1956, by an amendment of the Presidential Order of 1950 and in all subsequent Presidential Orders relating to Scheduled Castes, the Hindu and the Sikh Religions were placed on the same footing with regard to the specification of Scheduled Castes. Later on, as per the amendment made in the Constitution (Scheduled Castes) Order 1990, the Hindu, the Sikh and the Buddhist were placed on the same footing with regard to the recognition of the Scheduled Castes. A member of Scheduled Tribe may belong to any religion. However, a person will be reckoned as belonging to Scheduled Tribe only if the name of the Tribe appears in the list of Scheduled Tribes applicable to the State.
Literates
A person aged seven years and above who can both read and write with understanding in any language has been taken as literate. A person who can only read but cannot write has not been taken as not literate. It is not necessary that, to be considered as literate, a person Sllould have received any formal education or passed any minimum educational standard. Literacy could also have been achieved through adult literacy classes or through any non-formal educational system. People who are blind and can read in Braille are treated as literates. Work
Work is defined as participation in any economically productive activity with or without compensation, wages or profit. Such participation may be physical and/or mental in nature. Work involves not only actual work but also includes effective supervision and direction of work. It even includes part-time help or unpaid work on farm, family enterprise or in any other economic activity. All persons engaged in 'work' as defined above are workers. Persons who are engaged in cultivation or milk production even solely for domestic consumption are also treated as workers. Reference period for determining a person as worker or non-worker is one year preceding the date of enumeration.
Main Worker
A person who has worked for major part of the reference period (I.e., six months or more during the last one year preceding the date of enumeration) in any economically productive activity is termed as 'Main Worker'.
15 Marginal Worker
A person who worked for less than six mon'ths of the reference period (i.e., in the last one year preceding the date of enumeration) in any economic activity is termed as 'Marginal Worker'.
Non-Worker A person who did not at all work during the reference period was treated as non-worker. The non-workers broadly constitute.
Students who did not participate in any economic activity paid or unpaid, household duties who were attending to daily household chores like cooking, cleaning utensils, looking after children, fetching water etc. and are not even helping in the unpaid work in the family form or cultivation or milching, dependant such as infants or very elderly people not included in the category of worker, pensioners those who are drawing pension after retirement and are not engaged in any economic activity. Beggars, vagrants, prostitutes and persons having unidentified source of income and with unspecified sources of subsistence and not engaged in any economically productive work during the reference period. Others, this category includes all Non-workers who may not come under the above categories such as rentiers, persons living on remittances, agricultural or non-agricultural royalty, convicts in jailS or rnmates of penal, mental or charitable institutions doing no paid or unpaid work and persons who are seeking/available for work.
Cultivator
For purposes of Census, a person is classified as Cultivator if he or she is engaged in cultivation on land owned or held from Government or held from Private persons or Institutions for payment in money, kind or share. Cultivation includes effective supervision or direction in cultivation.
A person who has given out her/his land to another person or persons or institution(s) for cultivation for money, kind or share of crop and who does not even supervise or direct cultivation of land, is not treated as Cultivator. Similarly, a person working on another person's land for wages in cash or kind or a combination of both (agricultural labourer) is not treated as Cultivator.
Cultivaiion involves ploughing, sowing, harvesting and production of cereals and millet crops such as wheat, paddy, jowar, bajra, ragi, etc., and other crops such as sugarcane, tobacco, ground nuts, tapioca, etc., and pulses, raw jute and kindred fibre crop, cotton, cinchona and other medicinal plants, fruit growing, vegetable growing or keeping orchards or groves, etc. Cultivation does not include the following plantation crops - tea, coffee, rubber, coconut and beteJ-nuts (areca).
Agricultural Labourer
A person who works on another person's land for wages in money or kind or share is regarded as an agricultural labourer. She/he has no risk in cultivation, but merely works on another person's land fOf wages. An agricultural labourer has no right of lease or contract on land on which she/he works.
Household Industry Worker
Household Industry is defined as an Industry conducted by the head of the household herself/himself and or by the members of the household at home or within the Village in rural areas and only within the precincts of the house where the household lives in urban areas. The larger proportion of workers in household industry should consist of members of the household including the head. The industry should not be run on the scale of a registered factory which would qualify or has to be registered under the Indian Factories Act and should be engaged in manufacturing, processing, servicing and repairs of goods.
16 It does not include professions such as a Pleader, Doctor, Musician, Dancer, Waterman, Astrologer, Dhobi, Barber, etc., or merely trade or business, even if such professions, trade or services are run at home by members of the household
Other Worker
A person who has been engaged in some economic activity during the reference period but not as a Cultivator or Agricultural Labourer or in Household Industry is termed as 'Other Worker (OW)'. The type of workers that come under this category of 'OW' include all Government Servants, Municipal Employees, Teachers, Factory Workers, Plantation Workers, those engaged in trade, commerce, business, transport, banking, mining, construction, political or social work, priests, entertainment artists, etc. In effect, all those workers other than Cultivators or Agricultural Labourers or Household Industry Workers are 'Other Workers'. Sex-ratio
Sex-ratio has been defined as the number of females per 1000 males in the population. Number of females Sex-ratio = ______x 1000 Number of males Child Sex-ratio (0-6 years) Child Sex-ratio (0-6 years) has been defined as the number of females in age-group 0-6 years per 1000 males in the same age-group in the population. Number of females children (0-6 years) Child Sex-ratio (0-6 years) = x 1000 Number of males (0-6 years) Literacy Rate Literacy rate is defined as the percentage of literates to the total population aged seven years and above.
Number of literates Literacy rate =______x 100 Popu lation aged 7+ Work Participation Rate It is the percentage of total workers (main + marginal) to the total population. Total workers (Main + Marginal) Work partiCipation rate;;:; ______x 100 Total population
17 Location Code structure adopted in 2001 Census
In the Census 2001 the following location code st~ucture has been adopted
Area Number of digits
State Two digits (within the country)
Distrrct Two digits (within the state)
Taluk Four digits (within the district)
Village Eight digits (within the state)
Town Eight digits (within the district)
Ward Four digits (within the town)
The general pattern followed in coding of any geographical unit was a serpentine one, beginning from the North-West corner and completing at the farthest South-East corner within the State. One of the major initiatives taken in the Census 2001 was the allotment of Permanent Location Code Number (PLCN) to each and every village within the State and not within a tahsil as in the earlier censuses. PLCN was thus assigned as one continuous number from the first village in the first district to the last village in the last district. PLCN is an eight digit unique location code number with the first six digits representing the code number of the village and the last two digits depicting two zeros '00'. These zeros are reserved as buffer to be used for coding any new village(s) that may come up between two villages in future. For example, if a new village comes up between two villages with PLCNs 00154600 and 00154700, the new village will be allotted PLCN 00154601 and so on. The location code number for a town is also an eight digit number starting with the digit 4 situated at the extreme left acting as the unique identifier. The next two digits depict the code number of the district in which the town falls followed by two digits representing the town serial number in the district. There are three zeros at the end as buffer mainly to meet the requirement of bringing the number of digits to eight to match the number of digits in the PLCN for the villages. Thus a town location code number 40305000 represents the town serial number 5 of the district number 03 in a State. The out-growths of towns have not been given any independent location code numbers. These have been given notional ward codes after the last ward code of the respective towns to which these OGs relate to.

19 20 SECTION 2 - TABLES
21 22 A-1 NUMBER OF VILLAGES, TOWNS, HOUSEHOLDS,POPULATION AND AREA.
Table A-1 is the basic population table which corresponds to the general population table A- 1 of 2001 Census. This table gives the statistics of number of inhabited and uninhabited villages, number of towns ,number of households, population by sex according to the 2001census for total ,rural and urban areas, area in square km, and population per square km .. The figures are given first for state followed by districts, sub-districts, urban agglomerations, cities and towns .In 2001 Census slight modification has been made in the presentation of table A-1.This table has been presented into two parts viz. table A-1( part-1) and (part-ii). Table A-1 part-1 is gives the statistics for State/Union Territory, Districts, and sub -districts for total, rural and urban areas separately and A-1 ( part-ii) gives the figures of urban agglomerations, cities and towns only.
The density figures per sq. km. shown under column 11 for 'Urban' have been worked out using the area figures corrected up to two places of decimal obtained by adding the area of individual towns in the respective units. For 'Total' and 'Rural' the density is worked out on area figures corrected up to two places of decimal.
This basic table was renamed as Table A-1 in 1951 when 1st Census of Independent India was conducted and prior to this, it was numbered as Table-1 right from 1881 when first synchronous Census of India was taken. The title of the table remained unaltered since 1881, however, two additions and one deletion had been made in the contents: These are, (1) in 1961 when the Column "number of village" was bifurcated into two Columns i.e. "No. of inhabited villages" and "number of uninhabited villages" and (2) in 1971 when column "number of household" was added in the table (3) in 2001 Census Column No.8. of occupied residential houses has been deleted from the table.
It is Census tradition to present the census statistics by rural/urban break-up. By rural areas we mean the population living in villages. The village generally follows the limits of revenue village which is recognised by the normal district administration. The revenue village need not be a single agglomerations of habitation, but the revenue village has definite surveyed boundaries.
For census purpose the village is always the revenue village which is the ultimate unit of area into which the country is divided for purposes of land revenue. In a few past censuses only those revenue villages were considered which had some population ignoring the uninhabited revenue villages. But in 1961, the revenue villages which did not have any residential population were also included in the definition of villages. In 1971 such villages were included in the census list but were described as 'uninhabited' villages. The same practice continued in 1981 ,1991 and 2001. In 1991 village is thus a revenue village having defined boundaries and a separate set of land records irrespective of whether that defined area has any population or not and if it has some population whether that population resides in one residential locality or is in addition, spread over one or more identifiable clusters of population known as hamlets. The hamlets do not have defined boundaries or areas distinctly marked or allotted to them. The hamlets are situated within the areas earmarked for the village.
There are some villages the areas of which have fully or partly been merged or included in the neighbouring towns or in the towns growing after their names but they are recognised as such for land revenue purposes by the State Government. In such cases there will be no population in the areas of such villages and hence they have been shown as uninhabited.
23 The entire revenue village is one unit but there may be unsurveyed villages within forests, etc., which mainly comprise forest labourers and their families. Such forest villages have also been treated as villages. So the inhabited villages shown under col. of Table A-1 includes not only revenue villages having residential population but also inhabited forest villages. The uninhabited villages are shown under separate head which gives the number of described or uninhabited revenue villages.
The table has an appendix that gives the details of all the changes in the jurisdiction of various administrative units up to Tehsil, Taluk ,C.D. Block and P.S. level which have taken place during 1991-2001. The jurisdictional changes are depicted down to Tahsil, Taluka, Police Station and Community Development Block levels. Inter State linter District Territorial Transfers The present Gujarat State was under Bombay Presidency in 1872 divided into British Districts (such as Ahmadabad, Kaira, Panch Mahals, Broach, Surat, Khandesh(Part) and Tanna(part) and many princely States chief among them were Baroda, Palhanpoor, Myehkanta, Revakanta Agency and Kathiawar. This situation remained same more or less till the turn of the century. In 1941 the state was part of Bombay. After Independence, in 1951 the present state formed part of State of Bombay in which older districts were Ahmadabad, Kaira, Panch Mahals, Surat and Broach apart from newly created districts of Amreli, Banas Kantha, Sabar Kantha, Mehsana, Baroda and Dangs. State of Saurashtra and State of Kutch were also part of State of Bombay. By 1961, certain regions were renamed as districts namely Surendranagar, Rajkot, Jam nagar, Junagadh and Bhavnagar apart form Kutch, by which time there were 17 districts in all. By 1971, Gandhinagar and Valsad were also added as districts totalling to 19 districts in the State. By this time Kaira was renamed as Kheda, Broach as Bharuch and Baroda as Vadodara. Dangs became The Dangs. During the decade 1991- 2001, Patan, Narmada, Anand, Porbandar, Dohad, and Navsari were carved out as districts and thus at present there are 25 districts in the State.
Changes in Territorial units during 1991-2001 As stated above, Patan, Narmada, Anand, Porbandar, Dohad and Navsari are six new districts created during 1991-2001. Further details of the above changes are described as following. Patan district has been formed by taking out parts of Banas Kantha and Mahesana districts. Out of 6010.5 Sq.Km .. area of the district, only 1946 Sq.Krn .. was taken from Banas Kantha district (entire Radhanpur and Santalpur talukas) while rest of 4064.5 Sq.Km .. was separated from Mahesana district (entire Harij and Sami talukas , 54 villages and 1 town of Sidhpur taluka, 138 villages and 1 town of Patan taluka and 58 villages and 1 town of Chanasma taluka). Narmada district with an area of 2755.5 Sq Km .. was made from amalgamation of 1 taluka (Tilakwada ) of Vadodara district and 3 talukas (Nandod, Dediapada & Sagbara) of Bharuch districts. As much as 244.5 Sq.Km .. area was taken from Vadodara District and 2511 Sq.Km .. from Bharuch district. Anand district with an area of 2940.6 Sq Km .. has been carved out of Kheda district Entire Anand, Borsad and Khambhat talukas and part of Petlad taluka formed this new district. Porbandar district has been carved out of Junagadh district with an area of 2297.7 Sq.Km .. This area included of entire Porbandar, Ranavav and Kutiyana talukas of Junagadh district Dohad district has been formed out of Panch Mahals district by separating entire Dohad, Limkheda and Jhalod talukas and part of Oevgadhbaria and Santrampur talukas of Panch Mahals district. The district has an area of 3646.1 Sq.Km.. The district of Navsari with an area of 22092 Sq.Km .. has been carved out of Valsad district by taking out from it entire Navsari, Gandevi, Chikhli and Bansda talukas. Apart from above 6 newly created districts which led to reduced areas of Banas Kantha, Mahesana, Vadodara, Bharuch, Kheda, Junagadh, Panch Mahals and Valsad districts, some inter district changes also reduced areas of Bhavnagar and Ahmadabad districts. Only two districts namely Gandhinagar and Amreli gained in area during the decadal change in territorial units. Though there has been taluka level territorial changes in districts of Kachchh, Sabar Kantha, Surendranagar, Rajkot and Surat, but the overall total area of the districts remains unchanged. Only in two districts of The Dangs and Jamnagar there have been truly no change either in inter district or intra district levels. In 2 talukas of Kachchh, 6 talukas of Banas Kantha, 8 talukas of Mahesana, 8 talukas of Sabar Kantha, 4 talukas of Gandllinagar, 11 talukas of Ahmadabad, 2 talukas of Surendranagar, 3 talukas of Rajkot, 2 talukas of Junagadh, 6 talukas of Amreli, 1 taluka of Bhavnagar, 9 talukas of Kheda, 8 talukas of
24 Panch Mahals, 2 talukas of Vadodara, 2 talukas of Bharuch, 4 talukas of Surat and 2 talukas of Valsad districts there have been some inter taluka level territorial changes during this decade. In sum, during the period from 1991 to 2001 there was no Inter-State Territorial Change. There are many Inter-District and Intra-District Territorial changes which occurred during 1991 to 2001. Against 19 districts at 1991 Census there have been 25 districts in the State at the 2001 Census. Six new districts namely Patan, Porbandar, Anand, Dohad, Narmada and Navsari have been created after 1991 Census. Patan district is created from Santalpur and Radhanpur talukas of Banas Kantha district and from Sidhpur, Patan, Harij and Chanasma talukas of Mahesana district. Porbandar district has been carved out from Porbandar, Ranavav and Kutiyana talukas of Junagadh district. Anand district is formed by Anand, Petlad, Khambhat and Borsad talukas of Kheda district. Narmada district has been created from Tilakwada taluka of Vadodara district and Nandod, Dediapada and Sagbara taluka of Bharuch district.
Area Figure One of the important statistical information provided in Table A-1 is the statistics of area given in sq. kms as in 1971,1981, 1991 Censuses, so also in 2001 Census area (Total) figures are presented at the level of State, District, police Station, City, Urban Agglomeration and Town level.
The area figures at State and District level are supplied by the Surveyor General, India. The area figures below the district level are supplied by the local authority. The area figures of towns/cities/ Urban agglomeration are supplied by the local bodies. Therefore the area figures of urban area of the districts are compiled by adding of the area figures of each town of the district supplied by the local bodies. The total urban area figure was subtracted from the total area of the district supplied by the surveyor General, India to obtain the rural area figure of the district. District Rural/Urban area figures thus arrived were added up to give rural/urban area figures of the state but sub total of rural area figures of each police station may not be equal with the figures of rural area of the district. The area figures of the State since 1961 in sq. kms are given below.

From the proportion given in the above statement, it will be noticed that Kachchh is the largest district of the State, which accounts 45,652 Sq. Km. of area. Jamnagar is the second largest district of the State having 14125 Sq.Km .. of area. Thus, Kachchh district consists of 23.29 percent area of the State whereas Jamnagar district accounts for 7.21 percent area. Among the districts of Rajkot,
26 l1VcL¥~).f~ l Ir, Bhavnagar c;lnd Banas Kantha the proportion of each is more than five percent of the total area of the State. Thus, these six districts cover more than 50 percent area of the State.
The smallest district of the State is The Dangs, which has 1764 Sq.Km .. of area and accounts for only 0.90 percent area of the State. Gandhinagar is the second smallest district of the State and accounts for 1.10 percent area of the State.
Urban Areas In India for the first time in 1951, all Census data were presented separately for rural and urban areas. A fairly strict definition of an urban area has been adopted during the 1961 Census, for demarcation of urban areas. The definition of an urban area as adopted in the 2001 Census is given below: All the places recognised as a municipality, corporation, and cantonment or notified town area by the State Government were treated as towns. However, all villages ( other areas/units, which fulfilled the following conditions, were also treated as towns: - (i) A minimum population of 5000 (ii) At least 75 percent of the male main workers engaged in non-agricultural pursuits, and 2 (iii) A population density of at least 400 Km .

The total number of places classified as cities / towns was 166 in 1921. Since 1921 the number of towns has continuously increased ti[1 it reached a maximum of 242 in 1951. There were only 181 towns as other places were declassified as a result of the standard definition of 'urban areas' uniformly adopted during the 1961 Census. Thereafter an increasing trend is noticed and the number of urban units had risen to 263 in 1991 Census. In 2001 Census there are 242 towns due to a large number of places declassified like in 1961 Census. In Ahmadabad and Surat districts there were 9 and 7 towns in 1901 whereas in 2001 Census the number has risen to 25 and 18 respectively. The decreasing trend is seen in most of the districts due to a large number of places declassified and due to creation of 6 more districts in 2001 Census. The Dangs district is entirely rural in 2001 Census like it was up to 1981. Only two places of this district had been classified as urban first time in 1991 Census only. 30 .q- f'-- l() N 0) L[) t f'-- r--- CO -=;tillCOill~..-O'lNc!)O O><;to)CDLO<;tLO O.;;t V lOONI'--N-=;tNO<;t l() (V) .;;t, .q- t- C'J ..- 0) 0 ..- ..- (V) N ill C0.q-I'--CD.q-NC0COC'J.;;tCD~COOO C0 LO C") M LO ONCON..-CDLOL{)MC!)O<.OC0.q r---CONMC") C'JLO (,,)MMI'- OLl)OCOl'--o) " ..- N .,- I'-- 0) ..- 0) (") ..- I'- r---MOro(") o L[) ..- I'-- <.0 L{) I'--.q- (0 T""' 0) 0 to CO t- I'-- COQCOC'JO MI'-" ~1'-1'-(")o)ONo)C0 CONLOCO(,,)COC0CO-=;t(()NOOOLO Ot-O>I'--C0(")l()Oo)NI'--.;;t t-co CDLl).,-(")l()N(J)o)V.;;tC0Ll) (")N cD ..- O.;;tO).;;tCOC") 32 Rural Areas The village generally follows the limits of a revenue village, which is recognized as such by the district administration and the State Government under the Land Revenue Code of the State Government The revenue village is not a single agglomeration of habitations, but the revenue village has definite surveyed boundaries. For Census purpose the village is always the revenue village, which is the ultimate unit of area in~o which the State is divided for the purpose of land revenue administration. The hamlets do not have defined boundaries or areas distinctly marked allotted to them but are within the areas earmarked for the village. The Census data are therefore presented for each revenue village, which is the smallest administrative unit The entire revenue village is one unit However, there are unsurveyed villages in Gujarat within the forest areas, which mainly comprise of tribal forest labourers and their families. Such forest villages have also been treated as 'villages'. Thus the inhabited villages shown under column 3 of table A-1 include not only revenue villages having residential population but also inhabited 'Forest Villages'. The uninhabited villages are shown under a separate head under ColumnA, which gives the number of deserted or uninhabited revenue villages. The statement below gives the villages and towns in 2001.

This table gives the decadal variation, percentage decadal variation and also the population by sex. Thc preparation of this table will enable to compare the data on growth of population of the state and districts for the last 100 years. Adjustment of Population from 1901 to 2001 The districts which have been affected by the territorial changes during the period of last decade were subjected to detailed examination for arriving at population according to their boundaries in 2001. During this decade also some villages were transferred from one district to another as usual. The population figures of each village according to 1951, 1961,1971,1981 and 1991 Censuses are available in the respective District Census Hand Book. The population of each district according to the jurisdiction of 2001 Census has been worked out and given separately for all fifth Censuses. The village wise population for the previous censuses from 1901 to 1941 are, however, not available. They have, therefore, been worked out in accordance with the formula prescribed by the Registrar General. The break-up of the population into males and females was determined on the basis of male and female distribution of population in a particular district in which relevant territorial unit was situated at the time of transfer. The figures thus arrived at have been given in Table A-2. Statement-l illustrates for an district the method of estimation for the population for the various censuses form 1901 to 1941 adj usted for its present territorial limits, change in territories and Population between 1991 and 2001. During the last decade inter-district changes have taken place in eight districts, while in 18 other districts territorial changes have occurred from one taluka to another within the district. The remaining seven districts have not been affected. In fact, in 1991 there were only 19 districts in the State of Gujarat. Six more districts, viz, Patan, Porbandar, Anand, Dohad, Narmada and Navsari have since been added. The district of Patan has been formed transferring by some talukas from Mahesana and Banas Kantha districts. Porbandar district has been formed by bifurcating ]unagadh district into two.

The villages having population 1000 to 4999 claim about 64.18 per cent of the rural population of the State. The villages of the smallest size "Less than 200" claim only 0.27 per cent of total rural population while those in the group '200-499 from 2.59 per cent of the total rural population. The rural population amounting to 6.33 per cent is claimed by the largest population size of"10,000 and above". Narmada district has not a single village having population 10,000 and more, while Anand district has not a single village having population less than 200. It is noteworthy that 28.00 per cent population of The Dangs district resides in the small size (below 500) villages. As much as 57.89 per cent reside in medium size (500- 1999) villages, 3.54 per cent reside in large size (2000-4999) villages, and 10.57 per cent reside in very large size (over 5000) villages. In Anand district only 0.20 per cent of rural population is living in small size villages, 9.83 per cent in Medium size villages and 52.14 per cent in very large size villages. In Patan district about 75.00 per cent of rural population lives in the group 1000 to 4999 followed by Ahmadabad with 74.53 per cent, Banas Kantha with 73.40 per cent, Amreli with 72.80 per cent, Porbandar with 72.14 per cent and Rajkot with 70.09 per cent. By regrouping the seven categories of villages into small, medium, large and very large according to the sizes of their population the following pattern emerges. The 1991, 1981, 1971 and 1961 data are also given for comparison Percentage of PopUlation Croups by population sizes 2001 Census 1991 Census 1981 Census 1971 Census 1961 Census Under500 (Small) 2.87 4.21 5.86 9.12 14.25 500-1999 (Medium) 35.41 41.21 46.03 51.48 54.26 2000-4999 (Large) 38.69 37.16 34.02 29.94 25.12 Over 5000 (Very Large) 23.03 l7.42 14.09 9.46 6.37 Large sized villages having inhabitants numbering 2000 to 4999 are predominant in Gujarat and claim 38.69 per cent of rural population of the State in 2001. The medium sized villages (500-1999) claim over 35 per cent of the rural population of the State. The population under small sized villages has been decreasing continuously from 14.25 per cent in 1961 Census to 2.87 per cent in 2001 Census as against this the proportion of population under the large sized villages (2000-4999) has been increasing from 25.12 per cent to 38.69 per cent during the period oflast 40 years. The medium sized villages (500- 1999) also show a declining trend in their proportion.

It gives the variation in urban population separately for males and females, decade variation and percentage decade variation for each town and urban agglomeration during the last hundred years. In addition the status of the towns and the area figures of the towns and urban agglomerations are also given in the table. The status and area figures are, however, confined to 1961, 1971, 1981, 1991 and 200 1 Censuses only. The area of each town/urban agglomeration is given in square kilometers. This table gives all the towns including urban agglomerations and their population by sex since 1901 and its decadal variation. The towns/cities/urban agglomerations have been arranged in the order of population size and class of town. As in 1971, 1981 and 1991, all towns and urban agglomerations have been grouped into the following six broad classes according to population size Class I Population of 100,000 and above Class 11 Population of 50,000 to 99,999 Class III Population of 20,000 to 49,999 Class IV Population of 10,000 to 19,999 Class V Population of 5,000 to 9,999 Class VI Population of less than 5,000 According to the tradition of Indian Census any place with a population of 100,000 and above is called a City. An alphabetical list of all towns and urban agglomerations is given at the end of the general note which will help the readers for reference to the entries given in the table. The total urban popUlation of State/union Territories for each census from 1901 to 2001 is given at the beginning of the table and is followed by similar figures for class I total and the towns included in class I arranged in the order of their population size. Similarly, the total for class II followed by figures of each town included in that class arranged in the order of population and so on, are given. Classification of towns given in this table is based on the 2001 population. As many towns have changed their class since 1901, the class totals shown in the table for previous censuses are not the totals of respective population of all towns shown in that class in 2001. They are the totals of population of all towns which on the basis of popUlation were included in that class in those censuses except the towns which are the constituents of urban agglomerations. Some of these towns might have gone to higher or lower class and some might not have been treated as towns in later censuses. Since this table shows the growth of urban population alone, the figures of previous censuses against towns which were not treated as towns in those censuses are not given. Their population in those censuses was treated as rural. They are also not included in the class totals for any census. If any place was treated as town in some census and declassified as rural in subsequent censuses and again classified as town, then in such cases the population particulars are given only for those censuses in which it was a town and the word 'declassified' is recorded against other census years where it was declassified. The definitions of town and urban agglomeration have already been given at length in the general descriptive note given at the beginning of this volume. As mentioned earlier, the concept of town group as adopted in 1961 was given up in 1971 and 1981 mainly on account of lack of uniformity in defining town group as applied in I ' different States. In 1971 and 1981 Censuses, the term town group was replaced by urban agglomeration with an uniform definition throughout the country. The same concept of urban agglomeration was also adopted for 1991 and 2001 censuses. An urban agglomeration was formed by taking into account the continuous urban spread constituting a town and its adjoining urban outgrowths, or two or more physically contiguous towns together with continuous well recognizcd urban outgrowths, if any, of such towns. While presenting the data of urban agglomerations, its components have been depicted with lower case in Roman serial like (i), (ii), (iii), etc. and the units treated as urban outgrowth have been shown with a suffix (0. G.) against each. Where an urban agglomeration consists of two or more towns, the core towns have been shown with prefix (a). (b), (c) etc. In striking class totals an urban agglomeration has been taken as unit not only for 2001, but also for previous censuses. As mentioned earlier the total for any class in any previous census has been worked out as the total of towns of that particular class in that particular census. They include towns which might have been individually withdrawn from urban status in a preceding or succeeding census. But a constituent of an urban agglomeration has been reckoned not according to its class in a particular census but according to the class of urban agglomeration as a whole in that census. In case of merger of towns, the merged units are considered as absorbed in the unit in which it merged. So the unit and not the merged town have been presented according to its class in each census. Where, however, a rural area has been merged with an urban area in a particular census, the population of only the urban area in censuses preceding that particular one, has been taken as the basis for that single class. Wherever the population of a town in a previous census had to be adjusted with reference to 2001, a foot note has been inserted explaining the procedure and extent of such adjustment. This table has been supplemented by the following two appendices: Appendix-I: This appendix gives, the new towns of 2001, which were not towns in 1991 and also the towns of 1991 which have been declassified in 2001, their area and the 1991 and 2001 population. Appendix- 2: This appendix gives the towns which have undergone changes between 1991 and 2001, the brief reasons for such changes and their population at the two censuses Mega City: - The concept of 'Mega City' is a recent phenomenon in the Urban Sociology and is defined in term of metropolitan city in the form of large size, problem of management the civic amenities and capacity to absorb the relatively high growth of popUlation. Indian Census in 1991 treated the population size of 5 million and above as the cut off point to identify a place as the mega city. Whereas, for the purpose of inclusion in Centrally Sponsored Scheme for Infrastructure Development in Mega cities the Ministry of Urban Affairs and employment, Department of Urban Development adopted the criteria of 4 million and above population as per 1991 Census for Mega Cities. In 2001 Census, cities with 10 million and above population have been treated as Mega cities. The following statement shows the growth in the number of Cities and Towns and their Population in State and Districts during 1991-2001. , , Statement - 1 Growth in the number of Cities and Towns and their Population in State and District 1901 - 2001 y Class - I Class - II Class - III Class - IV Class - V Class - VI All Classes ear No. Population No. Population No. Population No. Population No. Population No. Population No. Population 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 12.Junagadh District 1901 0 0 0 0 1 34,251 2 31,791 5 37,950 3 11,155 11 115147 1911 0 a 0 0 1 35,413 2 30,698 5 36,566 3 10,649 11 113326 1921 0 0 0 0 1 33,221 3 44,315 4 29,931 3 10,350 11 117817 1931 0 a 0 0 2 61,004 2 29,299 5 39,394 2 6,856 11 136553 1941 0 0 1 58,111 1 30,275 4 60,131 6 45,845 1 4,185 13 198547 1951 0 0 1 62,730 2 60,463 4 55,121 8 59,493 4 16,781 19 254588 1961 0 0 1 74,298 2 68,019 7 91,850 4 28,002 1 4,403 15 266572 1971 0 0 2 154,671 2 50,041 7 108,019 6 47,473 0 0 17 360204 1981 1 120,416 1 85,048 6 161,706 8 100,521 2 14,121 0 0 18 481812 1991 1 151,207 2 147,087 5 157,116 8 114,122 2 18,971 1 4,674 19 593177 2001 2 381,373 3 170,838 4 110,180 3 49,137 0 0 0 0 12 711528 13.

In respect of towns of the remaining two classes the percentage of number of towns and the percentage of population covered under these towns have gone down during the 100 years. The figures here indicate that the population is increasing in higher classes of towns and cities. It is also worth noting that in 1901 about 75 per cent of the total population was claimed by Class-III to VI towns against about 25 per cent claimed by the first two class towns. In 2001 an entirely different trend is observed where about 81 per cent of the total population is claimed by the Class-I and II towns and only about 19 per cent of the population is claimed by the towns of rest of the classes. In the same statement similar information for districts is given. In Kachchh district there was no city or town from 1901 to 1981 Censuses. Out of total urban population in the district the Class-I towns claimed 60.67 per cent in 2001. In Jamnagar district there was no city or town from 1901 to 1941 Censuses. Class-I towns claimed 59.59 per cent urban population during 2001 as against 48.54 per cent recorded in 1951 Census. The respective percentages for Rajkot district are 79.06 per cent and 34.42 per cent. In case of Bhavnagar district the Class-I towns nearly claim the same proportion of urban population which was 54.24 per cent in 1941 and 54.83 per cent in 1991. However in the decade 1991-2001 the urban population shows rapid increase by 11.25 per cent. Ahmadabad district has only one Class-I city in all the Censuses from 1901 to 1991 and three towns in 2001 Census. The proportion of population claimed by the city has risen from 72.20 per cent to 84.07 per cent during the 100 years. The percentage of number of towns of Class-I has increased from 11.11 per cent to 12.00 per cent during the same period. It is observed that in Kheda district the percentage of number of towns under Class-III to total number of towns has increased from 9.09 per cent in 1901 to 75.00 per cent in 2001. In the corresponding period the urban population has also increased from 27.89 per cent in 1901 to 47.70 per cent in 2001. G \ --1.
