CENSUS OF INDIA 2011 ARUNACHAL PRADESH SERIES – 13 PART XII – A DISTRICT CENSUS HANBOOK CHANGLANG VILLAGE AND TOWN DIRECTORY DIRECTORATE OF CENSUS OPERATIONS, ARUNACHAL PRADESH Big Cat-Tiger at Namdapha National Park: Changlang District NAMDAPHA, a Tiger Reserve and National Park, is a true wilderness and enchanting beauty of lush green vegetation, impenetrable and pristine virgin forest covering an area of 1985.23 sq.kms located in Changlang district of Arunachal Pradesh along the international boundary with Myanmar. Namdapha National Park is located at a few kilometers away from Miao amidst misty blue hills along the turbulent Noa-Dihing river in the sprawling tropical rain forest. It was declared as Tiger Reserve by the Government of India in 1983. The beautiful forest possesses great biodiversity of Flora and Fauna. It is believed that a comprehensive survey of species and its genetic variation of the National Park may take as long as 50 years to know its botanical resources. There are more than 150 timber species available in the forest. The Pinus merkusi and Abies delavavi available in the forest are not found elsewhere in India. One of the rarest and endangered orchids, the Blue Vanda is found in this park. A popular local medicinal plant called Mishimi Teeta (Copti teeta) which is used by the local tribal for all kinds of diseases is available but its export has been banned. Namdapha is the only the only park in the world to have four Feline species of big cat namely tiger (Panthera Tigris), Leopard (Panthera Pardus), Snow Leopard (PantheraUncia) and Clouded Leopard (Neofelis Nebulosa). A number of primate species such as Assamese macaque, pig-tailed macaque, stump-tailed macaque and a number of distinctive Hoolock Gibbons (Hylobates Hoolock) which is a highly endangered and only ‘ape’ species found in India dwells in this impenetrable virgin forest. Elephant, black bear, Indian Bison and several species of deer, reptiles and a variety of arboreal animals are also found in the park. Amongst the bird species, the most notable are the White winged Wood Ducks, the great Indian Hornbills, jungle fowls and pheasants which flop their noisy way through the forest. The inaccessibility of the greater portion of the park has helped to keep the forest in their pristine and virgin in its natural form. The lush green undergrowths are thick and intertwined like cobwebs of canes, bamboos, wild bananas and a variety of vegetations. The grandeur of the wet tropical rain forest is the breeding ground for varieties of animals and birds which is remarkable and worth seeing. (vii) Contents Pages 1. Foreword xi-xii 2.

It contains both Census and Non Census data of urban and rural areas for each District.The Census data provide information on demographic and socio-economic characteristics of population at the lowest administrative unit i.e. of each Village and Town and ward of the District. The Primary Census Abstract (PCA) part of this publication contains Census data including data on household amenities collected during 1st.phase of the Census i.e. House Listing and Housing Census. The Non Census data presented in the DCHB is in the form of Village Directory and Town Directory contain information on various infrastructure facilities available in the village and town viz; education, medical, drinking water, communication and transport, post and telegraph, electricity, banking, and other miscellaneous facilities. Later on, the Telegraph Services were closed by the Government of India on 15th. July, 2013. The data of DCHB are of considerable importance in the context of planning and development at the grass-root level. 2. In the 1961 Census, DCHB provided a descriptive account of the District, administrative statistics, Census tables and Village and Town Directory including Primary Census Abstract. This pattern was changed in 1971 Census and the DCHB was published in three parts: Part-A related to Village and Town Directory, Part-B to Village and Town PCA and Part-C comprised analytical report, administrative statistics, District Census tables and certain analytical tables based on PCA and amenity data in respect of Villages. The 1981 Census DCHB was published in two parts: Part-A contained Village and Town Directory and Part-B the PCA of Village and Town including the SCs and STs PCA up to Tahsil/Town levels. New features along with restructuring of the formats of Village and Town Directory were added. In Village Directory, all amenities except electricity were brought together and if any amenity was not available in the referent Village, the distance in broad ranges from the nearest place having such an amenity, was given. 3. The pattern of 1981 Census was followed by and large for the DCHB of 1991 Census except the format of PCA. It was restructured. Nine-fold industrial classification of main workers was given against the four-fold industrial classification presented in the 1981 Census. In addition, sex wise population in 0-6 age group was included in the PCA for the first time with a view to enable the data users to compile more realistic literacy rate as all children below 7 years of age had been treated as illiterate at the time of 1991 Census. One of the important innovations in the 1991 Census was the Community Development Block (CD Block) level presentation of Village Directory and PCA data instead of the traditional Tahsil/Taluk/PS level presentation.
