v GENERAL NOTE
Language is one of the important cultural characteristics of the pupulation. The language census literature has a more than 100 years long history in the Indian Census and has thrown light on ethnic and linguistic composition of the country. In order to meet the growing demand of the data users requirements, efforts have been made in this volume to present the language data in a more comprehensible and comprehensive manner as well as user.friendly.
In the 1991 Census, as in the previous censuses, the mother tongue as retUrfled by each individual was collected through the question number 6 in the individual slip which was canvassed universally ex2ept Jammu and Kashmir where the 1991 census could not be held due to disturbed conditions then prevailing there.
The language of the person enumerated was recorded as returned by the respondent. The instruction to the enumerators for filJing up question 6 on language are given below:
"MOTHER TONGUE is.e language spoken in the childhood by the person's mother to the person". If the mother died in infancy, ,the language mainly spoken in the person's home in childhood will be the mother tongue.In case of infants and deaf mutes, the language usually spoken by the mother should be recorded. In case of doubt, the language mainly spoken in the household may be recorded. "
Record mother tongue in full, whatever be the name of the language returned by the respondent and do not use abbrieviations.
Please not the following :
(a) You are not expected to determined if the language returned by a person is a dialect of another language.
(b) You should not try to establish any relationship between religion and mother tongue.
(c) You are bound to record the language as returned by a person as hislher mother tongue and you should not enter into any argument with himlher and try to record any language other than" what is returned, and
(d) If you have any reason to suspect that in any area due to any organised movement, the mother tongue is not being truthfully returned, you should record the mother tongue as ac~ returned by th7 'respondent and make a report to your supervisory officers for verification. You are not authorised to make any corrections on your o~. Since a household may consist of persons related by blood or of unrelated persons or- a mix of both, it is absolutely necessary to ask of every person about hislher mother
tongue be~se the mother tongue of each I member of a household need not necessarily be the same - the~ may be different for different persons in the household. Owing to this a large~_oflanguages!mother tongues names from all over the state was recorded faithfully by the- enumerator. These were thoroughly scrutinised following the usual 'lmauistic methods for rational grouping based on available linguistic information .
.'Thei.age tables presented in this volume comes under the series of Social & Cultural Tables'of 1991 Census Tabulation plan bears the Table number C-7 which is further divided into Part - A and Part - B. Each part is further divided into two parts as indicated below :-

All other returns falling under Part B and which returned less than 10,000 speakers each. at the All1ndia level or were not linguistically identifiable are included in the category "Others" occuring as the last entry in Part B.
