The District Census Handhook (DCH), compiled by the Census Organisation on behalf oC the State Governments, is one of th~ most yaluable products of the Census. 'the DCH is constantly referred' to by plartn~rs, administrators, academici~ns and res~archers. It is inler alia used f,,?r <lelin}~tation of constituencies, formulation of 'local level anll regional plans and .as an aid to 'bistritt Adn1inistr'ation. The District Ceh~us Handbook is ,the ohly publication which proddes Primary Census Abstract (PCA) data upto vil~3ge~ leVel for rural areas land wardwise for each ,c.ity or town. It also provid~s data on infrastructure and ,amenities in villages and towns, etc. The District Census Handbook series was initiated during the 1951 Census. It cpntained impor~ '''''-hI Hoi .rl' \ II ) tant census tables and PCA for each village and town of the district. During l::l6i Lensus the sco,Pe, of the DCH was enlarged and it contained a, descriptive accoun,t of the district, ad~ip.istra­ {tive statistics, census tables and a village and tbwn CliredofY, including PCA. The 1971 D91 -series 'was plan:ded in three partsl, £art-A related, to village axtd'town directory, Part-B to vi!lage a~d town peA and Part-C compdsed analytical report, fldmin'isirati'(e statistics, district census 'tabl(!s and certain 'ana1ytical taqles' based on peA and amenityi data in respect of villages.

I At 'the same time, comparability with the 1971 data has also been kept in view. All the amenities except power supply in the village have been brought together in the village directory with the instruction that in case an :am.ep.ity is not available in the referrent village the distance in broad ,ranRes from \~e' nearest place where the amenity is available may be givcl1':"IThr.'h,~,sturctw;t~g of the 'format 6f the villag~ directory and incorporating more exhausti~e 'dara on infra­ structure aspect particularly III relation to amenities and land~use pattern is expected to further meet the need of micro level planning for rural areas, It is expected to help not only in local area planning but regulatmg the provision of goods and services as well so as to minimise the regional imhalances in the process of development.

The livelihood activity and welfare are highly associated with the traffic flow pattern in the city. Over the years, with rising affluence, number of vehicles has increased disproportionately with road length and space. In East Khasi Hills district of Meghalaya, road length increased from 1696 KM in 2001 to merely 2050 KM in 2015, i.e., by 20.87 per cent. However, number of vehicles during the same period increased from 34996 to 137753, i.e., by 293.63 per cent. The problem is more acute in the hilly areas like Shillong due to scarcity of land space to enhance road width, hill topography and curvature along with difficulty and huge cost of construction. Steep hill slops and narrow space with rising vehicles in the peak hours block speedy movement of people, when there is an urgent need. However, congestion varies across space and time of the day. It depends on topography of road, activity pattern and timing of vehicle use, locational pattern of institutions across length and breadth of the city.

  • Urban Development
    MMEGHALAYAEGHALAYA SSTATETATE DEVELOPMENTDEVELOPMENT RREPORTEPORT CHAPTER VIII URBAN DEVELOPMENT 8.1. Introducti on Urbanizati on in Meghalaya has maintained a steady growth. As per 2001 Census, the state has only 19.58% urban populati on, which is much lower than the nati onal average of 28%. Majority of people of the State conti nue to live in the rural areas and the same has also been highlighted in the previous chapter. As the urban scenario is a refl ecti on of the level of industrializati on, commercializati on, increase in producti vity, employment generati on, other infrastructure development of any state, this clearly refl ects that the economic development in the state as a whole has been rather poor. Though urbanizati on poses many challenges to the city dwellers and administrators, there is no denying the fact that the process of urbanizati on not only brings economic prosperity but also sets the way for a bett er quality of life. Urban areas are the nerve centres of growth and development and are important to their regions in more than one way. The current secti on presents an overview of the urban scenario of the state. 88.2..2. UUrbanrban sseett llementement andand iitsts ggrowthrowth iinn tthehe sstatetate Presently the State has 16 (sixteen) urban centres, predominant being the Shillong Urban Agglomerati on (UA).

  • Living (Planet) Versus Dead (Capital)
    Living (planet) versus dead (capital) Sonal Jain Heinrich-Böll-Stiftung www.in.boell.org Abstract After five centuries of global capitalist expansion, we are in the midst of the largest mass extinction of species in the last 65 million years; we are confronted by the climate crisis and the mass acidification of the oceans. The Anthropocene discourse posits humans as a geographical force, measured by significant changes humanity has had on the biosphere. Many, however, counter this arguing that it is not human impact but global capital that is responsible for the climate crisis. Caught in our collective addiction to consumption, growth, progress and infrastructure development based on a flawed economic model, we need a radical change in our way of being. In stark contrast to the techno-utopia of our post- industrial societies, we have amidst us in the present day and age many communities, people and cultures who see themselves as being subject to nature, rather than in control of it; their worldviews and knowledge systems are completely opposite to the Western civilisation, global capitalism and the modern education system. The living root bridges and trees in the Indian state of Meghalaya, firmly enmeshed within the culture and identity of the people who create them, are perfect examples of living in tune with nature rather than controlling it. Author's profile Sonal Jain is the co-founder of Desire Machine Collective (2004) and project Periferry. She works at the intersection of art, ecology, technology and activism. Her practice spans film, video, photography, digital media, public intervention, curation and writing.

  • Live at the Border the Dawki-Tamabil Border and Mawlynnong Village: India-Bangladesh
    Live at the Border The Dawki-Tamabil border and Mawlynnong Village: India-Bangladesh The rolling Khasi Hills - between the floodplains of Assam and Bengal - were described by the British as “the Scotland of the East,” and provided the natural connection for people between these two plains until the British-ruled Indian subcontinent was partitioned into India and East and West Pakistan in 1947. It was an important point of commerce between Assam and Bengal and the Dawki Bridge, built by the British over the Umngot River in 1932, connects the Khasi-Jaintia Hills and South Assam, in present day Northeast India, with Sylhet district of present day Bangladesh. Today, on the Indian side of the border is Dawki town in the Jaintia Hills district of Meghalaya - 80 kms from the state capital of Shillong - and on the Bangladesh side is the border town of Tamabil - 55 kms from the provincial headquarters of Sylhet, Bangladesh. The beautiful and verdant Khasi Hills today sit on a maze of limestone mines and coal mines, frequented by diesel fuming trucks ferrying the coal and limestone out of the place, and a huge ugly cement factory. The factory and the mining have obliterated many of the Khasi monoliths which are the symbol of the Khasi animist belief-system. There has been a huge environmental impact of such coal and limestone mining in Meghalaya, which forms a substantial part of the border trade at the Dawki-Tamabil crossing. The road leading to Dawki, away from the maddening traffic of Shillong, the capital city of Meghalaya, is one of the most beautiful hill roads in this part of the world, and is busy with local taxis, private cars and buses ferrying tourists.
