ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
The organising of decennial census is a sort of joint venture of Union Government, State Government and public at large. Unless all the three partners of this joint venture have full confidence and co operation this massive exercise will not be successful. I am fortunate that in this territory this joint venture worked smoothly and successfuny. The first exercise of conducting census operations in the form of houselisting operation began on a sound footing and this process continued smoothly till the stage of enumeration which ended on 5th March, 1991. The then Chief Secretary, A & N Administration, Shri Gorakh Ram, lAS inaugurated the training of census officers organised in connection with the houselisting operations and the Hon'ble Lt. Governor, A & N Islands, Lt. Genl. Ranjit Singh Dyal (Rtd.) inaugurated the census training of census officers relating to enumeration. They assured the census officers that the A & N Administration will provide all available resources and help to ensure timely and smooth completion of the whole process of census work I take this opportunity to express my sincere thanks to A & N Administration and Central Government Departments who extended their whole hearted co-operation by sparing men and materials whenever required.
I am also deeply indebted to Shri A.R. Nanda, Registrar General & Census Commissioner, India whose commitment and dedication to complete the census operations in time inspired me and my officers to complete all phase in time. It was because of his inspired leadership, mature advice and gentle guidance that it was possible for us to complete successfully this massive and gigantic task of conducting census operations not only in time but also with perfection.
Shri Mahandra Nath, Jt. Registrar General, India and Shri N. Rama Rao, Dy. Registrar General (C & T) also always responded to our calls and extended all help and guidance. They never allowed us to feel that we are working in a very remote and isolated territory by providing guidance either over telephone or through letters. '
I am also thankful to the Officers of A & N Administration viz., S/Shri H.D. Birdi, Secretary (Stat.), S.K. Tripathi, Research Officer (AC) for timely issuing census instructions at the level of A & N Administration. I am also thankful to Shri D. Balasubramaniam, Police Radio Officer and his team of dedicated workers who always came handy and helped us in sending timely wireless messages to far flung and isolated corners of this territory and also taking the pain to deliver to us urgent messages immediately on their receipt from the Census Charge Officers. The All India Radi~, Port Blair and Publicity Department of A & N Administration and Central Government took special interest in giving wide publicity about the census operations. They proved of great help in creating a census consciousness amongst the masses about the importance and usefulness of census data and census work. My thanks are due to S/Shri M.P. Suri, Station Director, AIR, BK Bose, Publicity Officer and SK Paul, Director, IP & T of A & N Administration, who were always ready to help us in broadcasting/in publishing our educative news in the Daily Telegrams, Dweep Samachar and also exhibiting census films through their media programmes to inculcate the Importance of census amongst the rural masses. The Director of Shipping Services, Cdr. Tilak R. Dewan and the Dy. Director of Shipping, Capt. Kaushal Gupta also deserve my sincere thanks for providing us timely help in sending census parties to various far flung islands and also adjusting sailing programmes for collection of census materials from various points. I am also thankful to the Department of Lighthouses and Lightships who helped us in organising the census operations in non-synchronous areas of Narcondam island.
In my office, I was assisted by very able team of officers and staff headed by Shri Balwant Singh, Deputy Director of census operations. It was because of the untiring and sustained efforts of Shri Balwant Singh and his teams of dedicated colleagues particularly, S/Shri M.L. Puri, Asst. Director of Census Operations, P.K.T. Nair, K.N. Mishra, B.N. Mishra, V.O. Koshy, Pradip Oas Gupta, all Statistical Assistants and Shri K.V.K. Nair, Senior Stenographer that the operations could be conducted witn clock work precision. They all deserve special mention.
I am also thankful to all the Principal, District, Sub-Divisional Census Officers, Census Charge Officers and Special Census Charge Officers, Supervisors and Enumerators at all levels for conducting the fl&ld operations successfully in their respective areas. Shri S.P. Prabhakar, Principal Census Officer of district of Andamans and Shri Narendra Singh, Secretary, Port Blair Municipal Board (Census Charge Officer) deserve special appreciation for handling a non-cooperation movement organised by a section of people tactfully.
