This is the most valuble district level publication brought out by Census organ isation on behalf of each state Government/union Territory administration. It inter-alia provides data/information on some of the basic demographic and socio-economic charac teristics and on the availability of certain important civic amenities/facilities in each village -and town of the repective districts. ThiS publication has thus provided to be of Immense util ity to the planners, adminrstrators, aCademicians and researchers. The scope of the DCH 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 (ward-wise) of the district. The DCHs published after the 1961 Census contained a descriptive account of the district, administrative statistics. Census ta bles and village and Town Directories including PCA. After the 1971 Census, two parts of the District census Handbooks (part-A) Comprising village and town Directory and Part-B comprising village and Town PCA) were released in all the states and union T erritoriesies. The third Part (c) of the District census Handbooks compriSing administrative statistics and district census tables, which was also be to brought out, could not be published in many StateslUTs due to considerable delay in compilation relevant material. In 1981, some new features alongwith the restructuring of the formats of village and Town Directory were intro duced in the DCHs. These were published in two parts for each district after the 1981 Cen sus. While Part-A comprised village and Town Directories the PCA of villages and towns (ward-wise) including Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe PCA upto tehsil/town level were: provided in Part-B. To illustrate all the amenities except electricity, were brought to gether 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. Infor mation 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 require ments of the Revtsed Minimum Needs programme. Similarly, information on approach to the village was also provided for the first time in 1981 in the village Directory so as to give an idea about the number of inaccessible villages in each district. It. case of Town Directo riet also, keeping in view the requirements of the Mi~imum Needs programme, a statement IV-A on slums was provided so as to enable the planners to chalk out the programmes for providing better civic and other amenities in the slums. In this statement details on civic 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 Tribe Population and another on a(:fult literacy classes/centres were added in statements 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 format of PCA has been restructured slightly in the 1991 Census for the benefit of data users. Nine-fold Industrial classification of main workers viI 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 inculded 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 illiterate at the time of the 1991 census. It is expected that the above mentioned modification will help the planners in chalking out more effective developmental programmes. One of the most important innovations in the 1991 census is the community Devel opment Block-level presentation of data in the village Directory and PCA instead of the tradtional TehsillTaluk/PS level presentation. It is expected -that the presentation of village Directory and PCA data at C. 0, Block level will help the planners in formulation of micro level developmental plans, as the C.D. Block is the lowest administrative unit for devlop mental planning In order to facilitate the task of adminstrators, planners and researchers intending to use Village Directory/PCA data, either from the magnetic tapes/floppies or from the publish ed records, both the computer and manual codes for each vnlage have been provided for the 1991 Census along with the corresponding codes of 1981 This publication is a joint ventul'e of the State GovernmentlUT administration and the census organisation.
