Haryana (vii) SPECIAL TABLES FOR SCHEDULED CASTES GENERAL NOTE The present volume provides data pertaining to individual Scheduled Castes. The sepecial tables fOr Scheduled Castes are being published separately since the 1961· Census. The 1981 Census Scheduled Castes special tables covered under ParHX give the data on industrial categories of main workers, marginal workers, type of activity of marginal workers and non-workers, age. sex, marital status, educational levels etc. for State and District level for each caste. Most of the tables included in this . volume correspond to those published in Part-V-A Volum~ of 1971. A few more tables relating to Marginal workers and in respect of those seeking/availabJeJor work have. also been introduced . for the first time in th~ 1981 Census. Scheduled Castes and Seheduled Tribes . In the Indian censuses prior to 1931, information was coJlecte~ and published for each (;aste and tribe separately. In the ]931 census, tabulation of data for ·individual commuilities was limited to: (i) exterior castes. (Ii) primiUve .castes and (iii) all other castes with. the exception of (a) those whose members fell short of four per thousand of the total po~ion and (b) those for which separate figures were deemed to be unnecessary by tbe local govemment. In the 1941 census, 'group totals' were tabulated for Scheduled Castes.lTribes and Anglo~Indians. Separate totals were furnished only for a few selected individual tribes. When preparations forthe 1951- census were undertake~, the Government of India had already accepted the poJici of official discouragement· of community disli12ctions based on ca.ste. They decided, therefore. that no general race, caste or tribe' enquiries should· be made but an· enquiry should be maGe regarding race, caste or tribe only to the extent· necessary for providing information relating to certain special groups of the people who are referred to in the Constitution of India. The relevant Articles are extracted below: Scheduled Castes 341(1): The President may with respect to any State, and where it is a St3te specified in Part A . or Part B of the First Schedule, after consultation \\lith the Governor or Rajoramukh thereof, by public notjfication, specify the tastes, , races or tribes or parts of' or groups within castes, races or tribes which shall for the purposes of this Constitution be deemed to be Schedulei:! Castes in relation to that State. 341(2): Parliament may by law include in or exclude from the list of Scheduled Castes 'specified in a notification issued under clause (1) any caste, race or tribe or part of or group within any caste, race or tribe. but save as aforesaid a notification issued under the said clause shall not. be varied by any subsequent notification. From the 1951 census 9nwards the census questionnaire contains items of enquiry to ascertain wbethe the respondent belongs to a Scheduled Caste or a Scheduled Tribe and if yes, the name of the Scheduled Caste/Tribe to which he belongs with a view to collecting information for discharging the Constitutional obligations towards these communities. fn the Individual Slip (Universal) adopted for the 1981 Census, question 9 makes an enquiry about the Scheduled Caste or Scheduled Tribe status and question 10 about the. name of the specific Scheduled Caste/Tribe. Likewise, question 3 of the 2 household schedule enquires whether the head of the housebold belongs to a Scheduled Caste or Scheduled Tribe and que~tion 4. the name- of the S~heduled Caste/Tribe of the head of the household, if the . answer to question 3 is in th~ affirmative. The statutory lists of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes are notified in pursuance of Articles 341 and 342 of the Constitution. The lists of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes were notified for the first time under the Constitution (Scheduled Castes) O~der, 1950, the Codstitution (Scheduled Castes) (Part C State.s) Order. 1951. and the Constitution (Scheduled Tribes) Order, 1950, the Constitution (Scheduled Tribes) (Part C States) Order, 19.51. Thes~ lists have been modified or amended or supple mented from time to time. On the reorganisation of the States, the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes, lists (Modification), Order came into force from 2Qth October, 1956. Thereafter, a few orders specifying Scheduled Caste~/Tribes in respect of a few individual states also came into force.. FQr in stance. the Constitution (Jammu & Kashmir) Scheduled Castes' Order \\-as issued in 1956, while. the Constitution (Dadra & Nagar Haveli) Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes. Orders were issued in 1962. In Uttar Pradesh, the Scheduled Tribes were nOiified for the first time in 1967 vide the Constitution (Schedul.ed Tribes) (Uttar Pradesh) Order, 1967.· Likewise, the Constitution (Pondicherry) Scheduled Castes Order was 'enforced in 1964 In the case of the Union Territory of Goa, Daman & Diu, the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes Order was issued in 1968.
