S., Registrar General, India, a.nd ex-officio Census ('ommissioner of India, as part of a. plan intended to seoure an. effectiTe method of preserving the census records prepared for areas below the district level. He proposed that all the district census tables and census abstracts prepared during the process of sorting and compilation should be bound together in a Bingle manuscript volu:me, called the District Census Handbook, and suggested to the ~tate Governments th&t the Handbook (wi1Ih or wi'bhout the addition of other useful information relating to the district) should be printed and pub­ lished at their own cost in the same manner as the village statistics in the past. In accept­ ing, this suggestion, the Government of Rajasthan decided to print and publish the m.ore important portion of statistical data relating to the district and to preserve the rest of the records in a lJ.lanu~cript volumE" for any future use, to which they may be put. This Handbook contains five General Population Tables of A Series, three Economic Tables of B Series fi e Household and Age Tables of C Series, seven Socia.l and Cultural Tables of D ~eries, one table I'~ l,!iving summary for the district and tehsils, a local table 'KA' showing infirmities by a e groups and an Index of ~on-agricultural Occupations.

  • KNOWLEDGE of IMPROVED RICE PRODUCTION TECHNOLOGY by the FARMERS in DUNGARPUR DISTRICT of RAJASTHAN Ram Lal Khatik*, B
    Raj. J. Extn. Edu. 20 : 97-101, 2012 KNOWLEDGE OF IMPROVED RICE PRODUCTION TECHNOLOGY BY THE FARMERS IN DUNGARPUR DISTRICT OF RAJASTHAN Ram Lal Khatik*, B. S. Bhimawat** and B. Upadhyay*** ABSTRACT India is the second leading producer of rice in the entire world, preceded by China. Rice remains a staple food for the majority of the world's population. More than two-thirds of the world relies on the nutritional benefits of rice. Rice is naturally fat, cholesterol and sodium free. It is a complex carbohydrate containing only 103 calories per one half- cup serving. Rice is primarily a high energy or high calorie food. It contains less protein than wheat. The protein content of rice is usually 6 to 7 per cent. In Rajasthan rice is grown on an area of 131126 Lakh hectares with a production of 265545 lakh tones (Anonymous, 2010- 11). The major rice growing districts in Rajasthan are Banswara, Dungarpur, Kota, Bundi, Sriganganagar and Hanumangarh. The present study was conducted in Dungarpur district of Southern Rajasthan. There are total four tehsils in Dungarpur district of Rajasthan, out of which two tehsil namely Simalwara and Dungarpur have been selected on the basis of maximum area under cultivation of rice. Five villages from each identified tehsil were selected on the basis of maximum area under rice cultivation. Thus, in all 10 villages were selected for present investigation. For selection of respondents total 120 rice growers (60 small and 60 marginal farmers) were selected on the basis of random sampling method from the identified villages for the present study.

    PRG. 173 B (N) (Ordy.) 1,000 CENSUS OF INDIA 1961 VOLUME XIV RAJASTHAN PART IX-B CENSUS ATLAS C. S. GUPTA OF THE INDIAN ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICE Superintendent of Census Op~rations, RajalJhan 1969 FOREWORD FEW PEOPLE REALIZE, much less appreciate, that apart from the Survey of India and the Geological Survey, the Census of India had' been perhaps the largest single producer of maps of the Indian subcontinent. Intimate collaboration between geographer and demographer began quite early in the modern era, almost two centuries before the first experiments in a permanent decennial Census were made in the 1850's. For example, the population estimates of Fort St. George, Madras, made in 1639 and 1648, and of Masulipatnam and Bombay by Dr. John Fryer, around 1672-73 were supported by cartographic documents of no mean order, Tbe first detailed modern maps, the results of Major James Rennell's stupendous Survey of 1767-74, were published in 1778-1780 and Henry Taylor Colebrooke, almost our first systematic demographer, was quick to make good use of them by making estimates of population in the East India Company's Possessions in the 1780's. Upjohn's map of Calcutta City, drawn in 1792.93, reprinted in the Census Report of Calcutta for 195 I, gives an idea of the standards of cartographic excellence reached at that period. In the first decade of the nineteenth century, Francis Buchanan Hamilton improved upon Colebrooke's method in which he was undoubtedly helped by the improved maps prepared for the areas he surve ed. It is possible that the Great Revenue Survey, begun in the middle of the last century, offered the best guarantee of the success of decennial population censuses proposed shortly before the Mutiny of 1857.

  • Measuring and Mapping the State of Food Insecurity in Rajasthan, India
    RESEARCH PAPER MEASURING AND MAPPING THE STATE OF FOOD INSECURITY IN RAJASTHAN, INDIA Rajput Swati1*, Arora Kavita1 1Department of Geography, Shaheed Bhagat Singh College University of Delhi, India *Corresponding author: [email protected] Received: April 3th, 2020 / Accepted: February 16th, 2021 / Published: April 1st, 2021 https://DOI-10.24057/2071-9388-2020-67 ABSTRACT. Food insecurity is a global issue that persists at various scales and intensity. It is linked to irregularity or uncertainty of food, water and fuel and can develop under the influence of multiple factors. Food availability, accessibility, consumption and stability are the four broad dimensions of food security. This paper analyses the relationship between these four dimensions and food insecurity for 33 districts in Rajasthan, India, using the data collected from the published documents, periodicals and websites of the government or other authentic sources. To analyse the link between these four dimensions, several indicators were taken into consideration. The collected data was used to rank the districts based on their level of food insecurity. Thus, the results include categorization of the districts into four zones based on the values of the variables. The results are presented through maps, which show the spatial distribution of food insecurity. It can be concluded, that the districts of Banswara, Dungarpur, Udaipur, Bharatpur, Rajsamand, Dhaulpur and Jalore have a very high level of food insecurity.
