(ii) FOREWORD Apart from the decennial enumeration of population, the Indian Census is steoped in tho tradi­ tion of undertaking a variety of studies of topical interest. In fact, the publications brought out in connection with the earlier censuses contained veritable mines of information on racial, cultural, Jinguisti<.; and a number of other aspects of life of the people of this country. With the advent of freedom, however, the scope and dimension of these special studies had to be restructured in a manner that would provide the basic feedbacKs on the processes of development taking place in different spheres of life of the people especially under planned development. Thus, in connection with the 1961 Census, a massive programme was launched Inter-alia to conduct socio-economic survey of about 500 villages selected from different parts of the country. The main objective of this study was to know the way of life of the people living in Indian villages which accounted for 82 per cent of the total population as ptr the 1961 Census. There was, however, an imperative need to extend the area of the study to urban centres as well, to provide a complete coverage of the people living in diverse socio-economic conditions. It was with this objective in view ancillary studies on towns were launched as part of the social atudies programme in connection with the 1971 Census. The programme or social studies taken up in connection with the 1971 CeRsus, was continued without any major change at the 1981 Census as well. A study on traditional rural based handi­ crafts was, however, added as a new item under the social study projects of the 1981 Census. For the conduct of urban study, 64 small and medium towns WeIe selected from different parts of the country following the criteria such as (a) size, (b) demographic features, (c) functional chara(;teri­ sties, (d) specific industry or occupation dominatiJlg the economy, (e) location, (f) concentration of different castes and communities, and (g) other iocial and cultural phenomenon like temple town, health resort etc. The research design, tools (or data collection and formats for data tabulation and report­ writing required for urban studies were originally formulated by Dr. B. K. Roy Burman, the then Deputy Registrar General, Social Studies Division. His successor, Dr. N. G. Nag took considerablo pains to revise all the formats to make them more comprehensive. Dr. K. P. Ittaman, the present Deputy Registrar General heading Social Studies Division, coordinated these studies at different levels as well as rendered necessary guidance to the Directorates of Census Operations for their successful consummation. SOO M. K. Jain, Senior Research Officer with the able assistance or Investigators, Smt. R. Sabhauval and Shri Ganesh Das did a commendable job in scrutinising the reports and communicating the comments thereon to the Directorates. I am grateful to all of them. The present report is the outcome of a study on Paithan town llndertaken by the Directorate of Census Operations, Maharashtra. I am indebted to Shrt A. S. Dange. Deputy Director and his colleagues in the Cen.UiI Directorate for their painiltaking effortii in bringing ()11t th~s feport. NEW DBLBi, V. S. VERMA lit of 111M, 1983 Regilt,ar 0.116'111, 1Mi. \iii) PREFACE As an adjunct to 1981 Census a special project of the study of selected towns was undertaken to have a probe into the process of urbanisation in a developing country like India. In his foreword, the Registrar General, India has explained the philosophy, methodology and the scope of such urban .tudies. All over India 64 small and medium towns were selected from different parts of the country for the study to understand the intensity and direction of the Socio-economic forces generated by urbanisation as also affecting the process of urbanisation and its impact on the rural neighbourhood. In the history of Indian Census, the town survey was taken for the first time during 1961 Census and this survey was continued during 1971 and 1981 censuses without any major change. During 1961 and 1971 censuses, the Census Directorate, Maharashtra has not brought out report on town. According to 1981 census, there are 307 towns in Maharashtra. The Directorate of Maharashtra had selected 3 towns under this project and the Report on Paithan is the first. Since quite eady times Paithan has been a religious and historical centre of great importance and also the birth place of noted Saint Eknath Maharaj. It is said to have been the capital of Shalivahana. In Shalivahana's rule Paithan became a great emporium of trade and remained so for sometime after his death. It is a centre of Hindu, Muslim and Jain religions with an infra-structure for rapid urbanisation. In this report, the various socio-economic factors that govern the life of the people in the town and its prospects are brought out and substantiated with statistical data collected by a socio-economic lurvey of the town by contacting selected households. The report is the project of co-operation from various officials in the Census Department. I am extremely grateful to Shri V. S. Verma, Registrar General, India and Dr. N. G. Nag, ex-Deputy Registrar General (SS), Dr. K. P. Ittaman, the present Deputy Registrar General (SS) and Shri M. K. Jain, S.R.O. and his colleagues who offered valuable suggestions for designing the survey and in drafting and finalising the report. In this directorate, the field work of the town commenced in May 1985 and extended over a period of one year. Shri P. G. Abhyankar, Investigator assisted, by Shri D. K. Zambare, Statistical Assistant have done the main field work under the supervision of Smt. V. Y. Joshi, Assistant Director. The preliminary draft was prepared by Shri Abhyankar and Shri Zambare which was later scrutiniS6<i and edited by Smt. V. Y. Joshi, Assistant Director and finalised by the undersigned. The views ex­ pressed in this Report and the conclusions drawn are those of the Author and do not in any way reflect the views of the Government. My thanks are also to the staff of social studies section who undertook the field study and tabulal­ cd the data, to the staff in cartography section for having prepared the maps and diagrams for this report under the guidance of Shri K. S. Thakur, Research Officer and also to the Government Photographer, District Publicity Office, Aurangabad.

    Nidān, Volume 4, No. 1, July 2019, pp. 1-18 ISSN 2414-8636 The Cantonment Town of Aurangabad: Contextualizing Christian Missionary Activities in the Nineteenth Century Bina Sengar Assistant Professor, Department of History and Ancient Indian Culture School of Social Sciences Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University, [email protected] Abstract The cantonment town of Aurangabad has a legacy of being soldier’s territory since the inception of the city of Aurangabad or Khadki/Fatehnagar in the late 13th century (Ramzaan, 1983, Green, 2009). The city’s settlement pattern evolved as per the requirements of cantonment, planned during the Nizamshahi and later, during the Mughal rule in the city. In fact, Aurangabad evolved as a cantonment city even before the British. As we study the city’s networks and its community history, we come across a civic society web, which gathered and settled gradually as service providers or as dependent social groups on the resident military force. In the late eighteenth century when the British allied with the Nizam state of Hyderabad, they were given special place in the Aurangabad cantonment to develop a military base. The British military base in the early decades of the nineteenth century in Aurangabad, thus, worked intensively to cope with the already well-established community connection of a strategic defence town. This research paper will explore and discuss relationships between British soldiers and officers and the well-established societal web of communities living in Aurangabad from early decades of nineteenth century, before the 1857 revolt. Keywords: Aurangabad, British, Cantonment, Defence, English Introduction During July 2018, army cantonments in India constituted the news headlines, and soon entered coffee table discussions among heritage lovers.

Narayana Rao Migration and Development Study Group Center for International Studies Massachusetts Institute of Technology Cambridge, Massachusetts 02139 August 1977 Preface by Myron Weiner This study by Dr. K.V. Narayana Rao, a political scientist and Deputy Director of the National Institute of Community Development in Hyderabad who has specialized in the study of Andhra Pradesh politics, examines one of the earliest and most enduring attempts by a state government in India to influence the patterns of internal migration. The policy of intervention began in 1868 when the traditional ruler of Hyderabad State initiated steps to ensure that local people (or as they are called in Urdu, mulkis) would be given preferences in employment in the administrative services, a policy that continues, in a more complex form, to the present day. A high rate of population growth for the past two decades, a rapid expansion in education, and a low rate of industrial growth have combined to create a major problem of scarce employment opportunities in Andhra Pradesh as in most of India and, indeed, in many countries in the third world. It is not surprising therefore that there should be political pressures for controlling the labor market by those social classes in the urban areas that are best equipped to exercise political power.

(M.P.), India *Corresponding author: [email protected] (ORCID ID: 0000-0002-4005-6952) Paper No. 877 Received: 12-01-2021 Revised: 28-02-2021 Accepted: 03-03-2021 ABSTRACT The oranges created in Amravati district possessed the biggest share of oranges within the Vidarbha orange market. The orange crop plays a vital role within the economy of the region. Among the fruit crops, orange crop covers about 45,226 ha area in Vidarbha. There is still a good potential toward bringing a lot of area below orange in Vidarbha region. The present paper analyses the information behaviour of orange growers concerning the production of the oranges. The various types of constraints confronted by the orange grower related to production of orange are rootstock availability, labour availability, manures and fertilizers, irrigation, plant protection, capital, availability of loan from co-operative society, technical information, use of growth regulator, supporting and constraints confronted by the orange grower related to marketing of orange are Grading, Transportation, Sale of produce, Packaging, Storage. The study was conducted in the purposively selected Amravati district of the Vidarbha region of Maharashtra state.

Abstract Among the hand woven sarees of India, Paithani is famous and has played a significant role in weaving together the socio-cultural fabric of Maharashtra since it is traditionally a part of the trousseau of every Maharashtra bride. The aim of the study was to document the existing weaving traditions of Paithani and explore the possibility of weaving Paithani as a yardage with different product layout. To achieve the formulated objectives a descriptive cum exploratory study was planned. Data collection was done through observation and interview schedule during field visits in Bhandge Lane, Yeola. The weavers were selected through purposive random sampling. Adaptation of Paithani saree layout on handloom was done for selected product range to unearth new opportunities for a local craft and help them expand their market. Data analysis indicated that the younger generation was involved in the traditional weaving of Paithani saree. The weavers were training their children in traditional weaving practices of Paithani; contributing positively to its sustainability. The craft details in terms of raw materials, loom set-up, dyeing, weaving process, types of Paithani, colours and motifs was documented through photographs and supplemented with text. It was reassuring to learn that 80 per cent of weavers would prefer to diversify into other products instead of just weaving saree if done using same technique of Paithani weaving.
