Uttar Pradesh .. Introductory Note 1. History of District Census Handbook It has been customary to brmg out vital statistics at most of the Censuses. A hst showing. the population of villages in each district was.pubhshed after the 1891 Census. Such mformation was, however, not brought out m 1901. VIllage DIrectories were prepared for all districts in 1911, but could be pubhshed only for thirteen due to the out break of the FIrSt World War. At the 1921 Census, these were published fQr all dIstrIcts m the form of Dlstnct Census Statistics. In 1931 vIllagewlse statistics were complied but could not be pubhshed owmg to fina:!lcial strin gency, resultmg m loss of valuable data. At the 1941 Census, restricted tabulation was undertaken in, the wake of the Second World War, but the utIlity of Census statistIcs was recogmsed and these were published The DIstnct Census Handbook III its present form was brought out at the 1951 Census, and was published alongwith another volume tItled DistrIct Population Statistics. In 1961 Census, attempts were made to render the Di5tnct Census "Handbook more informatIve, as m addltlOn to Census data pertaming to each VIllage, data about Its level of deVelopment and amemtles wer~ also collected. At the 1971 Census, efforts have been made to compile both Cen sus and Non-census statlstlc3 at village/town level III a u111f.)rm m:ll1ner with an enlarged scope. As the Distnct Census Handbook makes Census statIstIcs avaIlable for the smaller tern tonal umts, It is constantly referred to for several purposes of admlmstration, demarcation of electoral constituencies, planning and development and so on. To ensure that these statistics are available to the. users early, the DIStrICt Census Handbook has been dIvided for being publIsh ed separately into three parts: Part A : Town and VIllage DIrectory Part B : VIllage and Town-wI~e Primary Census Abstract Part C : Analytical Report and Admmistrative Statements--Dlstnct Cens~s Tables. I 2. Scope of District Census Handbook Part A of the Handbook compnses the Town and Village Directory. In Village Directory, partIculars of amenities in regard to EducatlOn, Medical, Power supply, Drinking water supply, Post and Telegraph and Commumcations have been given. BeSIdes, it contams land-use statistics, days of weekly markets and places of relIgious, historical or archaeologIcal interest in each village. The Town Directory comprISing seven statements throws hght on the status of the town, its ongm, growth of population, functional category, location and physical aspects, Mumcipal finances, ClVic and other amenitIes, MedIcal and EducatlOn facllItles and statistICS pertamIllg to Trade, Com merce, Industry and Banking. Apart from these, it also gives the dlstnbution of population of a town by religion and scheduled Castes/Scheduled Tnbes. lV Part B'represents data down to vlllage level for rural area and block level for towns. It contains the Primary Census Abstract whIch incorporates figures of area, number of occupIed residentIal houses and households, total population and ItS break-up by sex, scheduled caste and scheduled tnbe, hterate populatIOn, ,workmg populatlOn by nine broad mdustnal categorIes of cultI vators, agricultural labourers, workers engaged In forestry and hve-stock etc, m mmmg and quarrymg in manufacture or repaIr, m construction, m trade and commerce, in transport and communicatIOns and m other services as well as the non-workmg population. Part C deals with the adrmmstratlve statistlcs pertaimng to the dIstrIct in all fields of development. The Census tables pertaimng to language, relIgi.on, mIgration and economIC activitles are being reproduced m this part. A WrIte up mdICatmg changes in SOCIO-economiC and demographIc ch.lracteristics of the dIstrICt durmg the last decade IS also bemg mcluded in It. 3. Town Directory-gIVen III Part A presents data for all the Census towns of the dis trIct. There IS no umformly accepted defimtIOn of a town. The hIstorIcal, political, ~ultural and admimstrative consIderatIOns are generally taken as cntena for rural-urban classIficatIOn. An urban area, m contradistmction to the rural, compnses a large majorIty of inhabItants who are engaged III IlldustrIaI and non-agrIcultural actIvi[les. In addItion to its SIze, population and occupatIOnal charactenstIc~, an urban area provides such facllitles as transportation, bankmg, commercial and techmcal serVIces, community faCIlities and other cIvic serVIces. According to the State Government, all Mumcipal Corpcrations, Municipal Boards, Cantonment Boards, NotIfied Areas and Town Areas are consIdered as towm, and according to their average annual income from their own resources, these have been classIfied into dIfferent classes of local bodIes. The Criterm adcpted under the Census Operations IS slrghtly different from the State Govern ment. In 1971 Census all places satisfying the followmg condItIons have been treated as Towns :- 1. All MUUlcipal CorporatIOns, MUlllcIpal Boards, Cantonments and Notified Areas. 2. Alliocahties though not m themselves local bodIes but formmg part of a CIty or town agglomera tIOn. 3. Other places satIsfymg all the three under mentioned conditions: (1) PopulatlOn, exceeds 5,000, (il) At least 75% of the male working population engages in non-agricultural pursuits, and (lll) The denSIty of pepulatIOn exceeds 1,000 persons per sq. mile (386 persons per sq. km. ). The informatlOn given III the Town Directory relates to the year 1969. The data has been presented in the followmg seven statements: (a) Statement I-ThIs statement presents the populatlOn of the towns at the end of each decade from 1901 to 1971, the CIvic status of the towns and their functional categories at 1961 and 1971 Censuses. The functIOnal categories gi,ven in columns 14 and 15 have been determined v on the basis of the predommant functlonal character of the town, to derive which the worklllg populatIOn under the broad mdustrIaI categories, has been regrouped into five functIOnal classI ficatIOns. (i) Pnmlry Activltles- Categories I, II, lIT, & IV" (Ii) Industry- Categones V (a), V (b) and VI (m) Trade and Commerce- Category VII, (lY) Transport - Category VIII and, (v) Servlces- Category IX.
