This is the ,most valuable district level publication brought out by the Census Organisation on behalf of each State Govt.lUnion Territory administration. It inter-alia provides data/information on some of the basic demographic and socio-economic characteristics and on the availability of certain important civic amenities/facilities in each village and town of the respective districts. This publication has thus proved to be of immense utility to the planners, administrators, academicians and researchers. The scope of the DCH was initially confined to certain important census tables on population, economic and socio-cultural aspects as also the Primary Census Abstract (PCA) of each village and town (ward-wise) of the district. , The DCHs published after the 1961 Census contained a descriptive acco\J.nt of the district, administrative statistics, census tables and Village and Town Directories including PCA. After the 1971 Census, two parts of the District Census Handbooks (Part-A comprising Village and Town Directories and Part-B comprising Village and Town PCA) were released in all the States and Union Territories. The third Part (C) of the District Census Handbooks comprIsmg administrative statistics and district census tables, which was also to be brought out could not be published in many StateslUTs due to considerable delay in compilation of relevant material. In 1981 some new features alongwith· the restructuring of the formats of Village and Town Directory were introduced in the DCHs.
