SBRJES
The DistTict Census Handbook (DCH), compiled by the Censu! Organisation on 'behalf of the State Governments, is . one of the most valuable products of the census. The nCR is constantly referred to by plannerS, administrators, academicians and rese.. rcher•• l. t is inter alia used for delimitation of constituencies, formulation of local level and regional ,plans and as an aid tD District administration. The District 'Census Handbook is the only publication which provides Primary Census Abstract (PaA) data upto village level for the -&-ural areas and ward wise for each city or town. It also provides data on infrastructure and .amenities in villages and towns etc.
The District Censui Handbook series was initiated during the 1951 census. It contained :important census tables and PCA for each village and town of the dIstrict. l>uring 1961 Census the scope of .the DCH was enla-rged and it contained a descriptive aCCOU:r;lt of the ..district, administrative statistics, census tables and a village and town di~ctory, including PCA. The 1971 DCH series was ,planned in three parts. Part-A related to village and ltoWn direc~ory, Pal't-B to village and town PCA a'.d Partc-C comprised of analytical report, administrative statistics, district census tables and certain analytical tables. based on PCA and amenity data in respect of villages. However, in some states Part-C was confined to -district censUS t:il.bles .and in a few cases ~ltoge~er given up due to delay in compilation and printing.
While designing the format of 1981 .DCH series, some new features along with the restructuring of the formats of village and town directory have been attempted. 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 instru -ction that in case an amenity is not available in the referrent village the distance in broad ranges from the nearest place where the amenity is available may be given. The restructuring 'of the format of the village directory and incorporating more exhaustive data on infrastructure ... aspect particululy in rdation to amenities and land-use pattern is expe(,:ted to further meet the n~d of micro level planning for rural areas. It is expected to help not only in local area planning but regulating the provision of goods and services as well as to minimise the regional 'imbalances in the process of development. A few new items of information have also been intrOduced to meet some of the requirements of the Revised Minimum Needs Programme. Such new items of informa.tion as adult literacy centres, primary health sub centres, and com muni!y health workers in the village have been introduced in~ the village directory with this '. objective in mind. The new item On approach to the village is to have an idea about the village in the district 'which are inaccessible. A new column, "total population and number of households" has been introduced to examine the correlation of the amenities with the popu lation and number of houSeholds they serve. Addition of two more appendices listing the villages where .no amenities are available and according to the proportion of Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe population to population has also been made with this view in mind.
The formats of the town directory have also been modified to meet the requirements of the Minimum Needs Programme by providing information on a few new items. The columns on Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes population ill: Statement IV relating to civic and other amenities and [idult literacy classes/centres under educational facilities in Statement V are also added inter alia with this vlew. A significant addition is class of town in all the six statements of the town directory. The infrastructure of amenities in urban areas of the country can be best analysed by taking the class of towns into consideration. The addition of the co\umns on civic administration status and population in a few statements also serve this Pll1"pose .
iii The format of the primary cenSUS abstract for the villages and towns has been formulated. in the light of changes in the e~onomic and other questions canvassed through the individual slip of 1981 census.
In order to avoid delay in publication of 1981 DCH series, it has been SO designed that Part-A of the volume contains village and town directory and Part-B, the PCA of villages and towns including the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled, Tribes peA upto Tehsit/ Town levels. At the beginning of the DOH a detailed analytical note supported by a number of inset tables based on PCA and non-census data in relation to the infrastructure has been introduced tl) enhance its value. The district and tehSiljpolice station/CD block etc. level maps depicting the boundaries and other important features have been inserted at appropriate places to further enhance the value of the publication.
This publication is a joint venture of the State Governme>1.t and the Census Organisation .. The data have been collected i P. PADMANABHA,' New Delhi. Registrar General and Census Commissioner, buiifl_ iv PREFACE TO THE D.C.H. SERJES The District Census Handbooks (DCH) constitute an important set of census. publications brought out by the .;ensus organisation which are widely made ute of by the State Government and its district-level and lower officials for planning, development and admini stration purposes as well as by a large cross-section of data users like academicians, scholars, ftSearchers and other non-governmental agencies. This volume presents the Village and Town Di'fectories under Part A and the Primary Oen~ Abstract under· Part B. The Village Directory gives for each village the area, population, educational, medical, civic and other amenities and land-use. The Town Directory gives for each town the area. population characteristics, physical aspects, communi cations, municipal finance, educational, medical, civic and other amenities and trade, commerce, industry and banking facilities. The Primary Census Abstract presents certain ~er basic data like number of residential huU8es and households, literates, Scheduled Caste and Tribe population, workers by main categories, marginal workers and non-workers. The data presented under Village and Town Dir.cctories were furnished by the Village Officers through the Tahsildars in respect of rural villages and by the Commissioners or Execu tive officers ·concerned.in respect of urban areas respectively. The data presented under Primary· Census Abstract were collected during the census operatio·ns by the census field organisation consisting of Enumerators, Supervisors, Charge Officers and District Census Officers. Thanks are due to all these field officials who have provided the basic data required for the compilation of this volume. . • The preparation of the statements and tables for this volume was undertaken in the .Census Directorate of Kerala,.

I record my appr~ciation for the painstaking and dedicated services rendered by aU my colleagues in giving shape to this volume. While the collection and tabulation of data and the designmg, compilation and production of these District Census Handbook volumes were undertaken by the census department at its own expense, in keeping with tb.e past practice, the State Government agreed IX) bear the cost of printing which is only appropriate since the State Government Departments and offices are the major users of these handbooks and the bulk of the copies are made available to'them free of cost~ It is hop~d that all data-users will find the format and contents of the 1981 DOH series convenient and useful. \ Trivandrum, M.
