CENSUS OF INDIA, 1971 SERIES 16 PART X DISTRICT CENSUS HANDBOO~ PART A-TOWN AND VILLAGE DlR.£GTORY KALAHANDI B. TRIPATHI of the Indian Administrative Servlcf Director of Census Operations, Orissa PREFACE The District Census Handbook first introduced as an ancillary to 1951 Census appeared as a State Government publication in a more elaborate and ambitio~s form in 1961 Census. It was divided into 3 parts: Part I gave a narrative accQunt of each District; Part II contained· various Census Tflbles and a series_ of Primary Census data relating to each village and town ; and Part III presented certain administrative statistics obtained fl'bm Government Departments. These parts r further enriched by inclusion of maps of the distr-ict and of police stations within tbe district were together brought out in one volume. The Handbook for each one of the 13 Districts of the State was acknowledged to l:e highly useful. 2. But the purpose and utility of this valuable compilation somewhat suffered on account of the time lag that intervened between the conclusion of Census and the publication of the Handbook. The delay was unavoidable in the sense that the Handbook complete with all the constituent parts brought together in 'one Volume had necessarily to wait till after completion of the processing and tabulation of Census data and col1ection and compilation of a large array of administrative and other statistics. 3. With the object-of cutting out the delay, and also to making each volume handy and not-too-bulky it has been decided to bring out the 1971 District Census Handbook in three parts separately with the data becoming availabLe from stage to stage as briefly indicated below: Part A-This part will incorporate the Town Directory and Jhe Village Directory for each district. _The Town Directory will contain certain essential data completed in six statements relating t~ each town of the district. The Village Directory, besides giving statistical data relating to various amenities existing in a village, will also provide basic data bearing on land use. A separate consolidated Town Directory will also be brought out at all India level as well as at State level in Part VI-A of the Census pUblication series. a t a later stage. vi Part B-Part B will render a statistical account of each village as also of each town tahsilwise and within a tahsil, police-stationwise. For each town the data will again be presented wardwise and further down in terms of each enumerator block. The data so presented by th0 lowest administrative unit will include the number of occupied residential houses and households, total population by sex and literates, population of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes, workers classified into nine industrial categories of workers and non-workers, generally referred to as PrimaIY Census Abstract or simply P. C. A. This volume "ill also contain administrative maps of the district, tahsils and police stations. Part C-This will contain a short write-up on the district and will also contain administrative statistics and various Census Tables of the district. 4. In pursuance of this scheme publication of Parts A and B of the Handbook has been taken in hand. It will be our endeavour to bring out both the parts for all the 13 districts of the State complete with P. C. A. and maps of different administrative units during this year and the next. Part C of the Handbook will come out later. 5. An explanatory note is given at the beginning of the Town Directory as well as the Village Directory introducing the- statements included therein. The concepts and definitions of the various subjects covered in the Directory and the abbreviations adopted have been eKplained in these notes. To facilitate location of any particular village, tbe villages of each police station in a district have been arranged in an alphabetical order also indicating the code number of each village. The list is appended at the end of the Vmage Directory of each tahsil. An administrative map of the district is given at the beginning of the volume. 6. The information on amenities in the Village Directory have been collected through the agency of the Census enumeration staff and that of land use from the Tahsildars. The statistical data relating to Town Directory have been collected from diffetent departments of the Central and State Governments, Block Development Officers and Executive Officers of Municipalities and Notified Area Councils. 7. Collection, collation and compilation of such massive data in respect of each of 51,639 villages and 81 towns in their various aspects is a formidable task. Though all possible care h'ls been taken through check and recheck to remove discrepancies in the figures, tre possibility of errors still creeping into them cannot be altogether ruled out. Notwithstanding these vii limitations, the mass of the statistical inforrration presented in the Directories will, it is hopeJ, come handy and prove useful to the Government, local bodies, scholars and other data users engaged in rllral and regIOnal planning. 8. I must place on record my deep appreciation and thanks to the Heads of Department& of Government, Local Bodies, District Officers, Tahsildars, Block Development Officers, Executive Officers of Municipalities and Notified Area Councils among others but for wb:,se lIr.stinted cc-q:eration and help this volurr.inous compilation would not have been possjble. In my office I am specially indebted to the Deputy DiIector Shri B. N. Das, Tabulation Officers Shri D. Satpath) and Shri LN. Misra and staff for the perseverance, diligence and zl!al with which they applied themsehes to this none-too-easy and arduous task. Cuttack B. Tdpathi 10th January, 1972 CONTENTS I. Preface ll.
