The publication, which is brought out for each district, contains several demographic and socio-economic characteristics village-wise and to\"IoTI-wise of the district alongwith the status of availability of civic amenities, infrastructural facilities, etc. The scope of the DCHB was initially confined to a few Census Tables and Primary Census Abstract (PCA) of each village and town within the district. Thereafter, at successive censuses, its scope and coverage has been enlarged. The DeHB published at the 1961 census provided a descriptive account of the district, administrative statistics, census tables and a village and town directory including PCA. The 1971 censlis-DCHB series was in three parts Part-A related to village and to\'o11 directory, Part-B to village and town PCA and Part-C comprised analytical report, administrative statistics, district census tables and certain anal)1ical tables based on PCA and amenity data in respect of villages. The 1981 census DCHB was in two parts: Part-A contained village and town directory and Part-B the PCAofvillage and town including the SCs and STs peA up to tahsillto\\11 levels. New features alongwith restructuring of the formats of village and to\'o11 directory were added into it. In Village Directory, all amenities except electricity were brought together and if any amenity was not available in the referent village, the distance in broad ranges from the nearest place having such an amenity, was given. Information on new items such as adult literacy centres, primary health sub-centres and community health workers in the village \vere provided so as to meet the requirements of some of the Revised Minimum Needs Programme. Information on approach to the village was provided for the first time in the Village Directory so as to giye the details on number of inaccessible villages in each district. In the To\'o11 Directory, a statement (VII) on slums was introduced to provide the details on civic and other amenities in the notified slums of Class I and Class II towns.
