The level of presentation in all-India volumes is State. District and City. [n State volumes. this level goes down to tahsil level for some tables while in District Census Handbooks most of the tables give data down to tahsil and a few tables give data for each town and village also. The greatest advantage of District Census Handbook is that data on all topics are available in one volume while in all-India and State volumes only data of one topic arc available in a volume. As District Census Handbooks gave non-Census and Census data upto the lowest level these were found very useful by the planners, administrators, election departments and research scholars, etc. 2. In 1951-Census, District Census Handbook besides presenting most of the Census tables at tahsil level gave primary Census data of village/block level and presented non-Census data on a number of topics e.g. Health. Bducation, Administration. Agriculture. General PhySiography. etc. This coverage was further enlarged by Dr. Asok Mitra, the then Registrar General, India and 1961·Censos Handbook gave very useful day-to-day information on non-Census data besides Census data. 3. The 1951 and 1961·Census Handbook having been applauded by the research workers. adminis trators and planners it was decided to further enlarge the scope of this handbook for 1911-Census. Shri A. Chandra Sekhar, the then Registrar General. India and Dr. B. K. Roy Burman, Deputy Registrar General, India (Social Studies) prepared draft guidelines for preparation of 1971-Census Handbooks. As per these guidelines District Census Handbooks were to appear in three parts details of which appear in introductory notes. This part i.e. Part-C of the Handbook was to contain detailed analysis and it was aimed to study whether it supported some anticipated hypothesis or the inference drawn from the analysis of the data went against the hypothesis. On account of inordinate delay in procurring non-Census data and processing of analytical tables, the idea of testing these hypothesis was dropped for all districts except this district. DJtaileJ anlly)is could only be carried on for Ambala district which has been presented in District Census Handbook of this district. Those interested in this type of study can go through this publication and if interested attempt detailed study of other districts. Dated Chaodigarh, the ARDAMAN SINGH. 7th November. 1978. Deputy Director of Census Operations, Haryana, Chandigarh.
