Dr.P.C.MAHALANOBIS DISTRICT STATISTICAL HAND BOOK 2016-2017

PREFACE

There is an encouraging demand for Block level and District level Statistics for formulating suitable policies by the Government and for planning purpose at micro level. Maintenance of District level information is assuming importance in the context of planning. An encouraging shift is being made through the introduction of Block level planning to decentralize the planning process. It is to be made obligatory that all the Government agencies operating at Block / District level should spare a copy of the periodical reports to the District Statistical Unit. In the long run these units become a purveyor of information generated in these areas.

The District Statistical Hand Book 2016-2017 is Seventeenth in the series. The main purpose of the present effort is to bring out a case for providing information (Data) at District level. The Hand Book is revised to the extent possible.

The information furnished in the Hand Book have been collected from various Heads of Departments. The Data furnished in this Book are widely used by needy whether it is an official or research Agencies. I also acknowledge the tireless work rendered by the Statistical Unit of this District for successful presentation of this Hand Book .
