The publication, which is brought out for each district, contains several demographic and s~cio-economic characteristics village-wise and town-wise of the di~trict alongwith the status of availability of ~ivic amenities, infra structural facilities, etc .. 2.' The scope of the DCHB was initially confined to a few Census Tables and Primary Census Abstract (PCA) of each village and town within the district. Thereafter, at successive censuses, its scope and coverage has been enlarged. The D9HB published at the 1961 census provided, a descriptive account of the district, administrative statistics, c~nsus tables ,and a village and town directory including PCA. The 1971 census-DCHB series was in three parts: Part-A related to village and town directory, Part-B to \ . village and town PCA and Part-C comprise?' analytical report, administrative statistics, district census f ~ tables and certaih analytical tables baseq on PC.t,\· am! amenity data in respect of villages. The 1981 census DCHB ..j;as in two parts: Part-A ~ontai_ned village and town directory and Part-B the PCA of village and toWn including the SCs and lSTs.... ~8A up to tahsil/town levels. New features alongwith restructuring of the formats of village and to'Yll directory were added into it. In Village Directory, all , "- amenities except electricity were brought tog~the~ and if any aIn.(:nity was not available in the referent village, the distance in broad ranges from the nearest place having such an amenity, was given. Information on new items such as adult literacy centres, primary health sub-centres and community health workers in the village were provided so as to me<:<t the rf!quirements of some of the Revised Minimum Needs Programme. Information on approach to the village was provided for the first time in the Village Directory so as to give the details on number of inaccessible villages in each district. In the Town Directory, a statement (IV-A) on slums was introduced to provide the details on civic and other amenities in the notified slums of Class I and Class II towns. 3. The 1991 census DCHB, by and large, followed the pattern of presentation of 1981 census, except the format of PCA was restructured. Nine-fold industrial classification of main workers was given against the four-fold industrial classification presented in the 1981 census.
