Motif Mopin Festival Mopin is one of the greatest and most popular festivals of Adis, more particularly of their Gallong group. The festival is held during the month of March - April in every year. Mopin is celebrated at the time of sowing or immediately thereafter for a good harvest. The festival in its positive form is closely related to agriculture. It is believed that performance of the festival would bring forth abundant food, health and happiness for the people. Preparations for the festival are made in good time, food stuffs, fish, meat etc. are arranged. The main items of sacrifice are mithuns and pigs. The festival is continued for a period of five days. Before the actual commencement of the festival the dipe ceremony is performed. During the festival women from each family come to the altar and receive blessing of Mopin. Cow, Mithun is sacrificed to the Mopin followed by a group dance and community feast. The fifth and the concluding day of the festival is marked by a mixed feeling of joy and sorrow. .(v) Contents Pages Foreword xi Preface x:m Acknowledgement xv District Highlights - 2001 Census xvii Important statistics in the District xix Ranking of Circles in the District XXI Statement 1-9 xxv-xxix Statement-! : Name of the headquarters of District/Circle, their RurallUrban xxv status and distance from district headquarters, 2001 Statement-2 : Name of the headquarters of District/C.D.Block, their Rural! xxv Urban status and distance from district headquarters, 2001 Statement-3 : Population of the district at each Census from 1901 to 2001 XXVI Statement-4 : Area, Number of Villagesrrowns and Population in district xxvii arid Circle 2001 Statement-5 : C.D.

The publication, which is brought out for each district, contains several demographic and socio-economic characteristics village-wise and town-wise of the district alongwith the status of availability of civic amenities, infrastructural facilities, etc .. 2. 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 DCHB published at the 1961 census provided, a descriptive account of the district, administrative statistics, census tables and a village and town directory including PCA.
