'I he districi had a 1951 population of 706,035 and an area of 2,911'4 square miles according to the area figure furnished by the Surveyor Genelal 0 India. -;, This Handlook contains tables for Broach district, compiled after the 1951 Consus of India. The main rebults ofihc 195] Cemus are emLodiei in tho State Tables published for the States of Bombay, Saurashtra and Kutch. In this Handbook, the data are exhibited in greate detail. The numbers given to tables in this pUblication corresFond to those given in the State Cemus Report. The following tables for the district have, however, not been included in this Handl::cok :- A-II Variation in popul2.tic.n during fifty years. A-IV Towns classified by population with variations since 1901. D-IV Migrants. In the E-Summary table, in this Handbook, 30me columns have been omitted. In the case of the C-series of tables,'except C-I, the data wore extracted on the basis of a sample count of approximatelty 10 per cent of the Census slips, instead of a full count of all the slips. The C-J table was prepared from a four per cent sample of the hOUf~eholdt recorded in the National Register of Citizens relating to each town 0J village. In 1941, the population figures were exhibited according to commu­ nities in the "Village Handbooks" published by the Government of Bombay. In 1951, the basis of classification at the Census was (han~ed from a social to an economic one, and the figures for villages given in the Primary Census Abstracts and in tables A-V, B-1, B-II, C-II and E, are according to the following eight Livelihood Cll'tSses :- Agricultural Classes 1. Cultivators of land, wholly or mainly owned; and their depen­ dants. II. Cultivators of land, wholly or mainly unowned; and thei1 dependants. III. Cultivating labourers; and their dependants. IV. Non-cultivating owners of land; agricultural rent reeeiveT~ and their dependants. Non-Agricultural Classes Persons (including dependants) who derive their principal meal of livelihood from :- V. Production other than cultivation. VI. Commerce. VII. Transport. VIII. Other sf;lfviQes and miscellaneous SO\1rcC)s. 3 Dependants, whether earning or non-~arning, were classified at the census according to the principal meam of livelihood of the persons ')n whom they were dependent. The Primary Census Abstracts, which contain basic information ,in 'espect of every village and town, have been arranged according to alukas and petas, units into which every district is divided for admini" t~ative purposes. ThEt taluka wJ,s, however, too small a unit to adopt '1r preparing the main census tables. Therefore, in the B, C and D­ fries of tables figures have been given for tracts and not for talukas nd petas. Before sorting the census slips and tabulating the results, "r\acts were formed by combining the rural and urban areas of two or more talukas or petas. The tracts into which Broach district; was divided for this purpose are shown below :- Rural Tracts (1) Rural area of Broach taluka. (2) Rural areas of Nandod, Jhagadia and Dediapada talukas and Valia and Sagbal'a petas. (3) Rural areas of Ankleshwar', Vagra and Jambusar talukas and Amod and Ransot petas. Urban Tracts (1) Urban areas of Broach and Nandod talukas. I (2) Urban areas of Ankleshwar and Jambusar talukas and Amod and Ransot petas. Urban areas comprise the towns shown in table A-V. Shortly before the 1951 popUlation census, a census of Small Indus~ 'tries was taken, and the results of this census are given in the tal Ie mtUed "Small Scale Industries Census-Emplo:yment in Establishments", included in this Handbook. The intention was to find out something about Oottage and Home ,l.ndustries and small workshops. The larger establishments, that is, \'ower-using establishments with 10 o~ more workers, and non-power .sing establishments with 20 or more workers, were excluded from the cope of the enquiry as they now submit returns under tb.') Factory 'ret. The enquiry did not concern itself also with workers functioning on -leir own and not employing other people, except wh~n looms were {ed. If even one loom was used a return wu,s required. Otherwise, e concept was of an enquiry which embraced all forms of associate ivity where articles were produced, repaired or otherwise treated sale, use or disposal.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: This article examines the impact and influence of two major religions of India on the tribe called ‘Vasâvâ Bhils’ of the South Gujarat in the Western Article History part of India. Change in the life of the human being is constant and sure. Received : 31 May 2021 However, the sudden (abrupt) change brings cultural shocks as well as shatters Revised : 15 June 2021 the belief system. However, the gradual and steady change is always desirable Accepted : 23 June 2021 and it can be sustained till posterity. According to the ‘greater traditions,’ the Published : 18 August 2021 Vasâvâ Bhils religion is so-called “primitive” religion. Christianity and Islam have very little or negligible influence over the life of Vasâvâ Bhils but the predominant Hindu religion has considered them as “lesser Hindus”. The Keywords new word has been coined like “Hindu Bhils’’ in order to assimilate into the Vasāvā Bhils- primitive- Hindu greater fold of the national mainstream. Some of the elite and educated have religion- influence- migration- concealed their tribal identity and accepted the lifestyle of the majority. The Sanskritisation- greater money, media (social media) might (political power) have literally forced them traditions to incline towards the major religion of the nation. They are branded as a culturally backward class.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 ABSTRACT This study of Vallabhbhai Patel’s role and style in In­ dian politics attempts to show how mobilisation of men and materials was achieved by exclusively political means for the attainment of conservative goals and for the prevention of any radical changes. This was done primarily at Patel's ins­ tance in the face of much opposition from many forces, parti­ cularly the socialists who sought a more comprehensive pro­ gramme for a wider section of society. Patel's qualifications for this job lay in his background, his personality and his affinity with certain regions (Chapter I). Several experi­ ments in controlled mobilisation culminating in the Bardoli Satyagraha showed the political effectiveness of Patel's ver­ sion of Gandhi's nationalist scheme (Chapter II).
