A list showIng the population of villages in each district was published after the 1891 Census. No such list was brought out in 1901. In 1911 ViJlage Directories were preparedl for aU districts, but could be published only for thirteen on account of the out break of the First World War. At the 1921 Census they were published for all districts in the form of District Census Statistics. In 1931 they were compiled for all districts, but were not published owing to tinancial strin.gency, leading to los3 of valuable data. At the 1941 Census eVen though restricted tabulation was undertaken on account of the Second World War, yet the utility of District Census Statistics was recognized and they were published. At the Census of 1951 two volumes were brought out for each district-the District Censm Handbook and the District Population Statistics. Gonrnment have decided to continue the publication of District Census Handbooks. The 1961 District Census Handbooks contain more data than ever published b~fore. Village Directories, besides giving the population ofvi1lages by industrial categorie~, aln contlin useful information about schools hospitals, post offices, etc. As revised D:strict Gazetteers are going to be published, introductory matter in th~ District Cl!mm Ha'ldbooks has been given in brief to avoid duplication. Information for the District Census Handbooks was collected mainly from three sources viz., State Tabulation OlTIce, District Officers, Heads of Departments and their district level officers. In all cases coafirmation has been obtained from Head&- of Departments concerned. I am extremely grateful to District Officers and the various Heads of D~partment.} for thdr whole. hearte::l co-operation in furnishing the desired information. I It is hoped that the District Census Handbooks will prove useful to the various Government department ~:.nd scholars. The printing of the Handbooks commenced from August, 1963. P. P.
