IV FOREWORD Publication of the District Census Handbooks (DCHs) was initiated after the 1951 Census and is continuing since then with some innovations/ modifications after each decennial Census. This is the most valuable district level pUblication brought out by the Census Organisation on behalf of each State Govt ~ /Union Terri tory administration. It inter-alia provide[ aata/information on some of the basic demographic and socio-economic characteristics and on the availability of certain important civic amenities/ facili ties in each village and town of the respective districts. This publication has thus proved to be of immense utilit'y 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 (peA) of each village and town (ward-wise) of the district. The DCHs published after the 1961 Census contained a descriptive account 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 T~rritories. The third Part (C) of the District ~ensus Handbooks comprising administrative 8tatistics and district census tables, which was also to be brought out, could not be published in many States/UTs due to considerable delay in compilation of relevant material.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. These were published in two parts for each district after the 1981 Census. While Part-A comprised Village and Town Directories, the PCA of villages and towns (ward-wise) including Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe PCA upto Tahsil/Town level were provided in Part-B. To illustrate, all the amenities except electrlcity were brought together in the Village Directory and if an .amenity was not available in the referrent village, the distance in broad ranges from the nearest place having such amenity was given. Information on some new items such as adult literacy centres, primary health sub-centres and community health workers in the village were provided so as to mee~ some of the requirements of the Revised Minimum Needs Programme. Similarly, information pn approach to the village was also provided for the firs~ time in the Village Directory so as to give an idea about the nunilier of inaccessible villages V in each district. In case of Town Directories also, keeping in view the requirements of the Minimum Needs Programme, a Statement IV-A On slums was provided so as to enable the planners to chalk out the programmes for providing'better civic and other amenities in the slums. In this statement details on c~v~c and other amenities were reported for the slums of class I and Clas-s II towns. Apart from this, one column on the Scheduled castes and Schedu1ed Tribes population and an.other on adult 1 iteracy classes/centres were added in Stat'ements- IV and V respectively. The manner of presentation of the DCHs for the 1991 Census is by and large the same as followed in 1981. However, the format of PCA has been !estructured slightly in the 1991 Census for the benefit of data ·'lsers. Nine­ fol~ industrial classification of main workers ·has been gi ve'l as again~,t four-fold' industrial classification presented in the 1981 Cehsus. In addition to this, the sex-wise population in the 0-6 age-group has also been included in PCA for the first time with a view to enabling data users to compute more realistic literacy rate as all children below 7 years of age have been treated as illiterate at the time of the 1991 Census. It is expected that the above mentioned modifications will help the planners in chalking out more effective developmental programmes. One. of the most impo.rtant innovations in the 1991 Census is the Community DE:velopment Block-Iev~l presentation of data in' the Village Directory and PCA instead of the traditional Tahsil/Taluk/PS level presentation. It is expected that the presentation of Village Directory and peA data at C.D. Block level will help the planners in formulation of micro-level developmental plans, as the C.D. Block is the lowest administrative unit for developmental planning. - In order to facilitate the task of administrators, planners and researchers intending to use Village Directory/peA data, either f~om the magnetic tapes/flGppies or from the published records, both the computer ~nd manual codes for each village have been provided for the 1991 Census alongwith the corresponding codes of 1981. This publication is a joint venture of the State Govt. JUT administrat ion and the Census Organisation. The data have been'colle<;:ted and compiled under the deirection of Shri T. Senapati, IAS Directo!" of Census Operations Assam on/behalf of the State Govt. lUT administration which has borne the cost of priniting. The task of planning, designing and coordination of the publication was initiated by Dr. K.P. Ittaman, former Deputy Registrar General (Social Studies) and Shri M.M. Dua, Joint Director. For the sake of uniformity in presentation of information/dada and for preparation of analytical note depicting the salient features emerging from a micro-level analysis of Census/non-Census data, a model DistriGt Census Handbook from each State and Union Territory was thoroughly scrutinised in the Social Studies Division under the guidance of Shri M.K. Jain, the present Deputy VI Registrar General (S.S.). This Tast was carried out by Shri A.K. Singh, Deputy Direct~r who was assisted by Shri N.S. Soam, Assistant Director and his staff. Technical guidance in the preparation of the maps was initially provided by Dr. B.K. Roy, Former Deputy Registrar General (Map) and later by Mrs. Minati Ghosh, the present Deputy Registrar General (Map). I am thankful to all those who have contributed to this project. New Delhi A.R. Handa June 11, 1992 Registrar General, India VII PREFACE The District Census Handbook is the only publication brought out by the Directorate of Census Operations on behalf of the State Government. The financial aspects of its publication are being taken care of by the State Government. This publication presents various demographic data down to the village level in rural area and down to town/ward level in urban area. It aiso displays the various amenities available in the individual village and towfu in the form of Village DiI'ectory and Town Directory. Since the vlllages are the lowest units that constitute larger di visions l:"ke Revenue Circles, C. D. Blocks q Districts, etc., the data both census and non-census are useful for micro-planning and development at grass root level. In this publlcatlon for the first time the data are presented C. D'. Blockwlse as well as Revenue Circlewise. Earlier the data were presented Police Stationwise. Besides an analytical note, the volume consists of two parts, Part-A and Part-B. The Village Directory, which has four appendices, is presented in Section-I of Part-A, and the Town Directory in Section-II. The Primary Census Abstract, which has an appendix, is presented in Part-B. The Census Operations in Assam was conducted under the able guidance of Shri N.C.

No. e20386 DoI No.: 10.5958/0974-8172.2021.00090.0 INVASION OF ALEURODICUS RUGIOPERCULATUS MARTIN IN ASSAM: POSING THREAT TO COCONUT GROWERS ARUP KUMAR SARMA*, SHOBHA DUTTA DEKA1 AND PRASANTA KUMAR DAS2 Department of Entomology; 1Department of Statistics; 2Department of Horticulture, BN College of Agriculture, Assam Agricultural University, Biswanath 784176, Assam, India *Email: [email protected] (corresponding author) ABSTRACT Aleurodicus rugioperculatus Martin has invaded NER India in 2018 and established already in many districts of lower Assam and is alarmingly spreading to new districts owing to the inadequate domestic quarantine. The pest has been detected for the first time in Biswanath district of Lower Brahmaputra Valley Zone of Assam in May, 2019. Variation in speed of invasion has been noticed in different zones depending on the mode of dispersal of the pest. Rainfall had no impact on short-distance dispersal of the pest. However, rainfall-deficient months of 2018 and low rainfall days of 2019 had some impact on its arrival and establishment. The pest is likely to affect the coconut economy in future. Extensive survey in the NER India for assessing crop loss due to the invasion and enforcement of strict domestic quarantine in inter-state borders are the urgent need of the hour. Key words: Rugose spiraling whitefly, Aleurodicus rugioperculatus, rainfall, invasion, quarantine, coconut, NER, Assam The North Eastern Region (NER) of India, one poor and marginal farmers of the state. In this study, of the largest salients (panhandles) in the world, is and effort has been to highlight the spread of Rugose known for its unique geographical location and rich Spiralling Whitefly (RSW) on coconut to new areas biodiversity.

  • To Open Full Flood Response Plan In
    1 District Emergency Operation Centre, Nalbari. Ph: 03624-220219 CHAPTER-I INTRODUCTION One of the main causes of impoverishment of the rural areas of Assam has been the recurrent floods which result in the degradation of agricultural soil, loss of life and property and great suffering to the affected people. In Assam, a set of Executive Instructions for dealing with such situations was issued in 1959. There were many comments and suggestions for a revision of the instructions and also for a systematic approach to these problems. In 1976, the Government of Assam codified the instructions and issued the Assam Relief Manual. This Manual, as amended and revised from time to time, lays down the steps to be taken in preparation for floods and other natural calamities and for rescue, relief and rehabilitation once the calamity has taken place. The Assam Relief Manual has been updated as Assam State Disaster Management Manual and is under the process of cabinet approval. The most important role has been assigned to the Deputy Commissioners and the Sub-divisional Officers under the overall guidance and supervision of the Divisional Commissioners. They have been asked to minimize the damage to life and property by a predetermined, planned and timely approach to the problem. The factors which cause such damage have been identified as lack of preparedness, failure to give timely warning to the people of the exposed areas likely to be affected by flood, dearth of boats, inability to communicate immediately with the affected areas, inadequate coordination between departments, officials and voluntary agencies, unplanned action and time-lag in mobilizing resources.
