A list showing the population of villages in each district was published after the 1891 Census. No such list was brought out in 1901. In 1911 village Directories were prepared for all districts, but could be published only for thirteen on account of the outbreak of the First World War. At the 1921 Census they were published for all districts in the form of District Census Statistics. In 1931 they were compiled for all districts, but were not published owing to financial stringency, leading to loss of valuable data. At the 1941 Census even though restricted tabulation was undertaken on account of the Second World War, yet the utility of District Census Satistics was recognised and they were published. At the Census of 1951 two volumes were brought out for each district the District Census Handbook and the District Population Statistics. Government have decided to continue the p_ublication of District Census Handbooks. The 1961 District Census Handbooks contain more data than ever published before. Village Directories, besides giving the population of villages by industrial 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 Ha;J.dbooks has been given in brief to avoid duplication. • Information for the District Census Handbooks was collected mainly from three sources, viz. State Tabulation Office, District Officers, Heads of Departments and their district level officers. In aU cases confirmation has been obtained from Heads of Departments concerned. I am extremely grateful to DistrictOfficers and the various Heads of Department for their wholeshear ted co-operation in furnishing the desired information. It is hoped that the District Census Handbooks will prove useful to the various Govt. depart. ·ments and scholars. The pri~ting of the Handbooks commenced from August, 1963. P. P.
