Block / Townwise. 218-233 (Iv) FOREWORD publication of the District Census Handbooks (DCHs) was initiated after the 1951 Census and is continuing since then with some innovations / modifications after each decennial census. This is the most valuable district Ie vel publication brought out by the Census Organisation on behalf of each State Government / Union Territory administration. It ,n/,qr - a/tOprovides data / information on some of the basic demographic and socio-economic characteristics and on availability of certain important civic amenities / facilities in each village and town of the respective districts. This publication has thus proved to be of immense utility to the planners. administrators. academicians and researchers. The scope of the nCH was initially confined to certain important census tables on population. economic and socio-cultural aspects as also the Primary Census Abstract (PCA) of each village and town (wardwise) of the district. The DCHs published after the 1961 Census contained a descriptive account of the district. administrative statistics. census tables and Village and Town Directories. including PCA After the 1971 Census. two parts of the District Census Handbooks (Part-A comprising Village and Town Directories and Part - B comprising Village and Town PCA) were released in all the States and Union Territories. The third Part (C) of the District Census ,Handbooks comprising administrative statistics and . .,, district census tables. which was also' to be brought out, could not be published in many States/UTs due to conSiderable delay in (!ompilation. of relevant material., In 1981, some new features alongwith the restructuring of the formats of Village and Town Directory were introduced in the DCHs. These were published in two parts for each district after the 1981 Census. While Part - A comprised Village and Town Directories, the PCA of villages and towns (wardwise) including Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe peA upto tehsU /town level were provided in Part-B. To illustrate, all the amenities except electricity, were brought together in the Village Directory and if an amenity was not available in the referrent village, the distance in broad ranges from the nearest place having such amenity was given. Infonnation on some new items such as adult literacy centres, primary health sub-centres and community health workers in the village were provided so as to meet some of the requirements of the Revised Minimum Needs Programme. Similarly, information on approach to the village was also (v) provided for the first time dUIing 1981 Census In the Wlage Directory so as to give an idea about the number of inaccessible Villages in each district. In case of Town Directories also. keeping in view the requirements of the Minimum Needs Programme. a Statement IV-A on slums was provided so ~ to enable the planners to chalk out the programmes for providing better civic and other amenities In the slums. In this statement. details on c1v1c and other amenities were reported for the slums of Class I and Class II towns~ Apart from this, one column on the Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Trtbe population and another on adult literacy classes / centres were added in Statement IV and V respectiVely. The manner of presentation of the DCHs for the 1991 Census Is by and large the same as followed in 1981. However. the fonnat of PCA has been restructured slightly in the 1991 Census for the benefit of data users. Nine-fold Industrtal classification of main workers has been given as against four-fold industrial classification presented in the 1981 Census. In addition to this. the sex-Wise population in the 0-6 age-group has also been included in PCA for the first time with a view to enabling data users to compute more realistic literacy rate as all children below 7 years of age have been treated as illiterates at the time of the 1991 Census. It is expected that the above mentioned modifications will help the planners in \ chalking out more effective developmental programmes. One of the most important innovations in the 1991 Census is the Community Development Blocklevel presentation of data in the Village Directory and PCA instead of the traditional TehsU/Taluk/PS level presentation. It is expected that the presentation ofVWage DireCtory and PCA data at C.D. Block level will help the planners in fonnulation of micro­ level developmental plans. as the C.D. Block is t.lJ.e lowest administrative unit for developmental planning. In order to facilitate the task of administrators. planners and researchers intending to use Village Directory/PeA data. either from the magnetic tapes/floppies or from the published records. both the computer and manual. codes for each vlllage have been provided for the 1991 Census along-With the corresponding codes of 1981. This publication is a joint venture of the State Government / ur admin1stIaUon and the Census OrgSntsatIon. The data have been collected and completed under the direction of Shri. K. Sampatb Kumar. DIrector of Census OperaUons. Tamil Nadu. on behalf of the State (91) Government which has home the cost of printing. The task of planning. designing and co­ ordination of the publication was initiated by Dr. K.P. Ittaman, former Deputy Registrar General (Social Studies) and Shri. M.M. Dua, Joint Director, for the sake of unifonnity in presentation of information / data and for preparation ofanalytical note depicting the salient features emerging from a micro-level analysis of census I non-census data. a model District Census Handbook from each State and Union Territory was thoroughly scrutinised in the Social Studies Division under the guidance of Shri. M.K. Jain. the present Deputy Registrar General (S.S.). This task was carried out by Shri. AK. Singh. Deputy Director who was assisted by Shri. N.S. Soam, Assistant Director and his staff. Technical guidance in the preparation of the maps was initially provided by Dr. B.K. Roy, former Deputy Registrar General (Map) and later by Mrs. Minati Ghosh, the present Deputy Registrar General (Map). I am thankful to all those who have contributed to this project.

  • Nilgiris District, Tamil Nadu Connie Smith Tamil Nadu Overview
    Nilgiris District, Tamil Nadu Connie Smith Tamil Nadu Overview Tamil Nadu is bordered by Pondicherry, Kerala, Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh. Sri Lanka, which has a significant Tamil minority, lies off the southeast coast. Tamil Nadu, with its traceable history of continuous human habitation since pre-historic times has cultural traditions amongst the oldest in the world. Colonised by the East India Company, Tamil Nadu was eventually incorporated into the Madras Presidency. After the independence of India, the state of Tamil Nadu was created in 1969 based on linguistic boundaries. The politics of Tamil Nadu has been dominated by DMK and AIADMK, which are the products of the Dravidian movement that demanded concessions for the 'Dravidian' population of Tamil Nadu. Lying on a low plain along the southeastern coast of the Indian peninsula, Tamil Nadu is bounded by the Eastern Ghats in the north and Nilgiri, Anai Malai hills and Palakkad (Palghat Gap) on the west. The state has large fertile areas along the Coromandel coast, the Palk strait, and the Gulf of Mannar. The fertile plains of Tamil Nadu are fed by rivers such as Kaveri, Palar and Vaigai and by the northeast monsoon. Traditionally an agricultural state, Tamil Nadu is a leading producer of agricultural products. Tribal Population As per 2001 census, out of the total state population of 62,405,679, the population of Scheduled Castes is 11,857,504 and that of Scheduled Tribes is 651,321. This constitutes 19% and 1.04% of the total population respectively.1 Further, the literacy level of the Adi Dravidar is only 63.19% and that of Tribal is 41.53%.

  • 106 Transformation to Organic Production Among the Small Tea
    The 9th ASAE International Conference: Transformation in agricultural and food economy in Asia 11-13 January 2017 Bangkok, Thailand 106 21 Transformation to Organic Production among the Small Tea Holders for Sustainability – Myth or Reality? Transformation to Organic Production among the Small Tea Holders for Sustainability – Myth or Reality? K. N. Selvaraj and R. Ganesh Transformation to Organic Production among the Small Tea Holders for Sustainability – Myth or Reality? K. N. Selvaraj1* and R. Ganesh2 Abstract The focus of the paper is to analyze the problems and issues in transformation to organic tea production, price benefits that can be accrued, present level of organic production and farmers’ awareness and adoption using both the primary and secondary data collected from various published sources and personal interview of the sample of farmers. The sample of farmers comprises of 100 beneficiaries of Participatory Guarantee System of India (PGS- India), four Small Tea Growers Societies, Certified Organic Tea Estate sector and three organic large tea growers including Small Tea Farmers’ Producer Company.
