The OCH is constantly m~rred to try planners, administrators, academicians and researchers. It is iuter a!in used 'for -delimitation "Of 'conrutuehci~s, 'fonnu\a­ tion of local level and regional plans and as an aid to District Administration. The District Census .Handbook is the only publication which provides Primary Census Abstract (PCA) data upto village level for the rural arcu ward-wIse for each city or town. It also provides data on infrastructure and amenities in villages and towns. etc. The District' ~eusus Han4bo

While designing the format of 1981 series some new features alongwith the restructuring of the formats of Village and Town Directory have been attempted. At the same time, comparability with the 1971 data has also been kept in view. All the amenities except power supply in the village have been brought together in tM Village Directory with the instruction that in case an amenity is not available in the referrent village the distance in broad ranges from the nearest place where the amenity is available may be given. The restructuring of tM format of the Village Directory and incorporating more exhaustive data on infrastructure aspect particularly in relation to amenities and landuse pattern is expected to further meet the need of micro level plannIng for -rural areas. It is expected to help not only in local area planning but regulating the provision of goods and services as well so as to minimise the regional imbalances in thee process of development. A few new items of informa... tion have also been introduced to meet some of the requirements of the Revised Minimum Needs Programme. Such new items of information as adult literacy centres, primary "health sub-centres and community health wor­ kers in the village have been introduced in the Villag.; Directory with this objective in mind. The new item on approach to the village is to have an idea about the villages in the district which are inaccessible. A new column, "total population and number of households" has been introduced to examine the correlation of the amenities with the population and number of households they serve. Addition of two more appendices listing the villages where no amenities are available and according to the proportion of Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe population to the total population has also beel1 made with this view in mind.

The formats of the Town Directory have also been modified to meet the requirements of the Minimum Needs Programme by providing information on a f~w new items. A new statement on civic and other amenities in slums in Class-J and Class·II towns (Statement IV-A) has been introduced with this objective in mind. It is expected that this will help the planners to chalk Out programme on provision of civic amenities for the improve­ ment of slums. The columns on Scheduled C.astes and Scheduled Tribes population in Statement IV relating to civic and other amenities and adult literacy classes/ c.:ontres under educational facilities in Statement V are also added inter alia with this view. A significant addition is class of town in all the seven statements of the_ Town Directory. The infrastructure of amenities in uibanareas of the country can be best analysed by taking the class of towns into consideration. The addition of the columns on civic administration status and populatio!1 in a few statements also serves this purpose. The format of the Primary Census Abstract for the villages and towns has been formulated in the light of changes in the economic and other questions canvassed through the individual slip of 1981 Census. In order to avoid delay in publication of 1981 DCH series it has been so designed that Part-A of the volume contains Village and Town Directory and Part-B the peA of villages and towns including the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes PCA upto Tehsil/Town levels. At the beginning of the DCH a detailed analytical note supported by a number of inset tables based on PCA and non-census data in relation to the infrastructure has been introduced to enhance its value. The District and Tehsil/Police Station/C.D. Block etc., level maps depict~ ing the boundar"s and other important features have been inserted at appropriate places, to further enhance the value of the publication. ])

This publicatioll is a joint venture of the State Government and the census organisation. The data have been collected and compiled in the State under the direction of Shri S. R. Ghakrkaborty, I.A.S., Director of Census Operations, Tripura on behalf of the State G()verlllJ1en~ which has borne the cost of printing. The tas~ of planning, designing and coordination of this publication was carried out by Shri N. O. Nag, Deputy Registrar General, India (Social Studies) of my office. Dr. B. K.

In his inaugural speech at the tint eonference on Census held on 19.2.1980 Chief Minister was kind enough to appreciate the importance of the District Census Handbook and the services of revenue agencies were utilised for the purpose. The revenue villages after cadastral survey in 1970 have been taken into account in 1981 Census and the information for 1981 District Census Handbook have been collected on the basis of revenue villages. In 1971 Census villages which were notional ones without well defined boundaries were taken into account. As it is not possible to locate as to what census villages of 1971 Census are comprised within what revenue village of 1981 so it is not being possible to have the advantage of comparability. So 1981 District Census Handbook is a bench mark for the coming District Census Handbook of 1991. The sincere works of the revenue agencies ar~ acknowledged with gratitude. I am grateful for the co· operation of Director of Land Records and Settlement, District Magistrates and Collectors and Sub-divisional Officers. The services of Shri S. K. Ganguly. Deputy Direetor of Census Operations, Tripura deserve every recognition for collection of information, compilation and prepalUt ion of draft of this District Census Handbook. Miss S. Chakraborty, Investigator put in her best by her since remost labour in assisting Shri Ganguly by working day in and day out and that also ungrudgingly. Assistance of Shri D. Bhattacherjee, Statistical Assistant to Shri Ganguly also deserves every praise. Shri Samiran Chakraborty, Investigator contributed to the same by supplying of information, Shri P. K. De, Investigator and Mrs. B. Das Gupta, Statistical Assistant also contri­ buted to'the same and their services need appreciation. The contribution of Shri K. B. Nandy. Investigator~ Shri B. Sarkar, Shri M. L. Chakraborty, Shri R. L. Kundu, Shri T. D. Sarkar, Shri R. C. Meena, and Shri N. B. Biswas, Statistical Assistants for assisting Shri Ganguly in connection with preparation of the draft shall have to be noted with thanks. In the preparation of the maps presented in this volume, the services rendered by Shri K. Singh, Cartographer, Shri K. R. Chakraborty, Senior Artist and Miss S. Chakraborty, Draftsman need also be recorded with appreciation. The services rendered by Shri Shambhu Das Choudhury, Junior Stenogra­ pher besides those of Shri S. R. Bhattacharjee and Sh1'i Sujit Choudhury also need appreciation. I am grateful to Shri K. K. Chakraborty, Deputy Registrar General, India (C & T), Dr. N. G. Nag, Deputy Registrar 'General, India (Social Studies) and Dr. B. K. Roy, Deputy Registrar General, India (Map) for the valuable guidance and assistance extended to me in fina lising the report. Last but not least, is my boundless gratitude to Shri P.

CENSUS CONCEPTS AND DEFINITIONS

As prevalent in all the Censuses throughout the, ~orld. sep~ific. co~cep:s and ~efinitions for conducting the census ate mainly adopted to account for the popUlatIon, Its dl.stnbutlOn III the dlcho~omy of rural ~nd urb~n areas, sex ratio, literacy, religion, language, housing pattern,. ~lze of household, dens'lty of populatIOn, SOCial and economic condition, trend of migration and rate of fertlhty etc. The data are presented separately for rural and urban areas. The concepts and definitions adopted in 1981 Census have been given below for the appreciation of data by the users. Rural Urban Dichotomy: It is an wmal feature in the- presentation of census data to maintain a line of divislOn between "Rural" and "Urban" are universally recognised as the basic units of habitation. This rural-urban dichitomy is accepted all over the world and recognised by the administration a~ well. While discussing concepts of rural and urban areas, rural-urban distribution of population as mentioned in Chapter-II of Provisional Population Totals in Paper 2 of 1981, Government of India may be reproduced below: "One of the basic characteristics of the popula'iion obtained through the census is the rural and urban distribution of people. The distin:ction between rural and urban is not always amenable to a single defini­ tion which could be applicable to all countries or for that matter, even within the same CIOunt~y. Quite often it has been assorted that an urban area should be distinguished not merely on the basis of defined demo­ graphic characteristics but also on the basis of the level of infrastructure facilities. Ideally, it would be use­ ful to define urban areas in terms of the level of infrastru'cture development and the availability of ameni­ ties in a given area but criteria based on such considerations have not been adopted in defining as urban are,a in India. It may be mentioned that one of the scheme on which this organisation is' now working is the possibility of arriving at criteria based on such factors for identifying urban areas but at the 1981 Census the conventional defimtion has been adopted. Largely for purposes of maintenance of comparability and for administrative convenience, the definition of an urban unit which was adopted at the 1971 Census has been continued which, in fact: has been adopted from J951 onwards. An urban area is defined as follows: a) All places with a municipality, corporation, cantonment board or notified town area committee, etc. b) All other places which satisfy the following criteria: i) a minimum population of 5,000 ; ii) at least 75 per cent of male working population engaged in non-agricultural pursuits; and iii) a density of population of at least 400 persons per sq.km. (1,000 persons per sq. mile) In addition, in consultaion with this office, the Director of Census Operations were also requested to classify marginal cases as rural or urban taking into coonsideration local circumstances. Such marginal cases which would have qualified to have been classified as urban units would include major project colonies, areas of intensive industrial development, railway colonies and important tourist centres, etc. It will be noticed from the definition that there are two distinct types of urban units. Those units which satisfy criterion (a) by virtue of a statutory notification are, by definition, urban and are referred to by the nomenclature adopted in the relevant notifica:tion. In other words,\ these would be referred to as a munici­ pal corporation, minucipal board, cantonment boanl, a notified area committee etc. The other type of urb:lll units would be those which satisfy criterion (b). These would generally include places which would otherwbe have been considered as rural, i.e., as villages. Places which are defined as urban because they satisfy criterion (b) are, for convenience, referred to as Census towns or non-municipal towns. This is to distinguish t~em from what are considered statutory towns under criterion (a). It must be mentioned that quite often Yillages which are classified for Census purposes as urban units under criterion (b) may continue to be Included in the village list in the revenue records. However, in Census publications, the relevant cross refe­ rences are generally available and the reader would be able to idel)tify su:ch cases. All areas which are not urban are, by definition, rural". 2

The definition of the village adopted in our State for the cen!iUS has got bearing upon clause (w) under Section 2 of Part I of the Tripura Land Revenue and Land Reforms Act, 1960, wherein village has been defined as: "Village 'means any tract of land which, before the commencement of this Act, was recognised as or was declared to be a village under any law for the time being in force or which may after such com­ mencement be recognised as a village at any settlement or which the State Government may, by notification in the Official Gazettee, declare to be a village". In Tripura Dis.trict Census Handbook of 1961, "Village" has been defined as follows: "Village represents a parcel of land, the boundary of which is defined and demarcated by Revenue Survey or by Cad estral Survey for administrative convenience. For the purpose of 1961 Census, all the Revenue villages as well as the Hilly village which are called 'Paras' under the Revenue Mouja have been treated as villages. These villages have been classified into lWO groups, viz., Inhabited and Uninhabited". The Cadestral Survey and Settlement Operation was completed by 1969. Administrative Units: like revenue villages were formed. At the time of formation of those administrative units the hilly villages which were called 'Paras' under the Revenue Mouja lost their existence. So definition of the village of 1961 Census by ex_cluding portion of aforementioned definition like "as well as hilly villages which are called 'Paras' under the Revenue Mouja" has been taken as revenue village for the purpose of 1981 Census. The total number of revenue villages in the State stands at 864 in 1981 Census, out of which North" Tripura District shares 280 while West Tripura District comprises of 281 and the South Tripura District comprises of remaining 303 revenue villages. With the adoption of Cadastrally Surveyed revenue mouja as the lowest unit of Census taking, the coverage of area and population has been assured considering the specific nature of boundaries of these revenue moujas in comparison with the vague boundaries of the earlier Census villages, viz., 'Paras' etc. On the other hand the data in the village level aod Development Block level as obtained in 1981 Census have been rendered incomparable with those obtained in 1971 Census or earlier Censuses because of the differen­ tial in characteristics of these lowest units between that of 1981 and of earlier Censuses.

Classification of towns: The towns are again clas9ified according to population size. The six classes as adopted in ·1971 Census have been specified for 1981 Census also which are as follows:

Classification Population sioze

---~------~------Class I Towns 1,00,000 and above Class II Towns 50,000-99,999 Class III Towns 20,000-49,999 Class IV Towns 10,000--19,999 Class V Towns 5,000- 9,999 Class VI Towns Less than 5,000

A town with a population' of 1,00,000 and above is termed as a 'City'. In 1971, besides Agartala Municipality, 5(five) other Sub-divisional Headquarters were treated as urban for the purpose of Census. In the meantime, those 5(five) Sub-divisional Headquarters which were considcr~ as urban from Cen~us point of view, along with the remaining four Sub-divisional Headquarters have been declared as 'Notified Areas'. Accordingly all the 9(uine) Sub-divisional Headquarters besides the Agartala Municipality have been taken as urban in 1981 Census. In Tripura, there is one Class I town, in Agar tala, Dut no Class II town. There is one Class III town, 4 Class IV towns, 2 Class V towns and 2 Class VI towr,s Out of the three towns of the District, Agartala the capital of the State belongs to the Class I category While khowai belongs to Class IV category and SOllamura to Class-V category. Functional categorisation of the towns on the basis of the main functions of the population has not been adopted in 1981 Cem.ls, though it was followed in 1971 Census. 3

Standard Urban Areas (SUAs): A new conceptof identifying standard urban areas was adopted in 1971 Census on the basis of the following norms: 1. That there should be a core town with a minimum population size of 50,000. 2. That the contiguous areas made up of other urban as well as rural administrative units should havc close mutual socio-economic links with the core town and 3. That the probabilities are that the contiguous area in question will get fully urbanised in a period of 2 to 3 decades. As Tripura has got only one town of the popuiation size of 50,000 and above in Agartala the SUAs in the State have been identified only on the perifery of Agartala town. Urban Agglomeration: The 1971 concept of urban agglomeration has been adopted for the 1981 Ccnsus also. Large railways colonies, University campuses, "post areas, Military camps etc. are often found to be coming out, outside the statutory limit of the city but adjoining it. Such areas may not by thcmeselves qualifying to be treated as towns, but if they grow up as a continuity with the towns, they deserve to be treated as urban, such towns together with such outgrowth are to be treated as one urban unit and called an 'Urban Agglomeration'. An urban agglomeration may, therefore, be defined as follows: a) A city with continuous outgrowth (the part of outgrowth being outside the statutory limit but falling within the boundaries of the adjoining village or villages). b) One town with similar outgrowth or two or more adjoining towns with their outgrowth as) in (a) or c) A city and one or more adjoining town.> with their outgrowths aU of which form a continuous spread. By applying the above Census qoncept only Agartala town in West Tripura District was considered as Urban Agglomeration in 1971 Census. In 1981 Census no town or area has been treated as Urban Agglomer­ ation in the State, no question in the District. In order to facilitate the identification of the units of dwelling places etc. for ensuring better coverage and uniformity and also to eliminate the scope of under-enumeration or over-enumeration, the following defi-. nitions were adopted in 1981 Census. Building: A building is generally a single structure on the ground. Sometimes it is made up of more than one component unit which is used or likely to be used as dwelling (residenccs) or establishments such as shops, busineas houses, offices, factories, workshed3, schools, places of entertainment, places of worship, go­ downs, stores etc. It is also possible that buildings, which have component units may be used for a combina­ tions of purpmes such as shop-cum-residence, workshop-cum-residence, Offioc-cum-residence etc. Sometimes a series of different buildings may be found along a street which are joined wtih one another by common walls on either side looking like a continuouSi structure. These different units are practically independent of one another and likely to have been built at different time and owned by different persons. In such cases, though the whole structure with all the adjoinillg units apparently appears to be one building. In case of multistoreyed structure, having a number of fiats owned by different persons the entire structure should be treated as one building. Usually a structure will have four walls and a roof. Sometimes conical roofs are found in some parts of the country touches the ground with an entranec and there may not be any wall as such. Such struc­ tures are also treated as buildings. Census House: A Census House is a building ur part of a building having a separate main entrance from the road Or common courtyard or stair-cases etc. used or recognised as a separate unit. It may be occupied or vacant. It may be used for a residential or non-f~sidential purpose or both. If a building has a number of fiats or blocks which are independent of one another having seperate entrance of their own from the road or a common stair-case or a common courtyard leliding to a main gate those have been considered as separate Census houses. Each of the separate buildings owned by different persons within a large enclosed area hag been treated as one separate building. But if in any of these buildings, there arc fiats in occupation of different households, each of such flats has been treated as a separate Census house. Household: A household is a group of persons who commonly live together and would take their meals from a common kitchen unless the exigencies of work prevented any of them from doing so. There may be a household of persons related by blood or a household of unrelated persons or having a mix of both. There may be a single member household also. 4

Head of the Household: The head of the household for Census purposes is a person who is recognised as such in the household. He is generally the person who bears the 'Chief responsibility for maintenance of the household and takes decision on behalf of the household. The head of the household need not nece­ ssarily be the eldest male member, but may even a female or a younger member of either sex. In the case of institutional household like messes, boarding houses or friends living together, the Manager or Superintendent or the person who has administrative responsibility or who by common consent is regarded as the head should be recorded as the head of the household. Houseless Household: Houseless population refers to that section of population which have no house to live in, such as persons living on the road side, pavement or in open places. The same definition of house­ hold will apply to this houseless population also. Institutional Household: It refers to the households constituted by a group of unrelated persons living together in institutions such as boarding house, hostel, jails and hospitals etc. Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes: The Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes of a State as speci­ fied by Presidential Order invoking the provision of Articles 341 and 342 of the Indian Constitution separately for each State. One of the Directive Principles of the Constitution of India is to promote the educational and economical interests of the weaker section of the society and to protect them from social injustice. In pursuance of this policy the President of India has been empower.::d to specify the Castes/Tribes which are to be termed as Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes for special consideration for their upliftment. 1931 Census was the last in the series of Censuses to have detailed enumeration of Castes and Tribes. Such details classification ,vas not made in the subsequent Censuses. With the Ccnstitution coming into force, the list of Scheduled Cast.es and Scheduled Tribes were notified in 1950 and tile said list was revised by the Scheduled Castes and Sehe· duled Tribes Order, 1956 and in the same year the list was further modified with the r~organisation of States, by Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes modification Order, 1956. In Tripura there are 37 Scheduled Castes and 19 Scheduled Tribes as per Presidential notification. The list of Soheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes as in Presidential Order, is reproduced below:

In the Census taking, the persons who reseponded to be belonging to one of the above Castes ·or Tribes, have been enumerated as Scheduled Castes or Scheduled Tribes, as the case may be. The enumerators in the field were reminded of the restriction that a perslln stating the religion other than Hindus or Sikh cannot be treated as Scheduled Castes. In the case of Scl1t:duled Tribes, there was no such restriction, i.e. persons belong to any religion may be treated as Schedukd Tribes. Literate,' A person who can both read and write with understanding in any language is to be taken as literate. A person who can merely read but cannot write, is not literate. It is not necessary that person whu is literate should have received any formal education or should have passed any minimum educational standard. ' Ability merely to sign one's name was not adequate to qualify a person as being able to write with understanding. Illiterate,' A person is illiterate who can neither r:::ad nor write or can merely read but cannot write in any language. For the purpose of Census all chihlren of the age of 4 years or less have been treated as illite­ rate, even if the child is going to school and may have picked up reading and writing a few words. ECONOMIC ACTIVITIES: Concept of Workers,' The population is generally dichotomized into two groups namely 'economically active' and 'economically inactive'. The economically active population is defined as those workers who pro­ duce economic goods and services. Those who do not contribute to the production of economic goods and services are said to be economically inactive. The former is called workers and the latter non-worker. The economically active population is said to' consist of all those who take part in the production of goods and services. Generally two approaches have been followed in identifying the economically active population in a census. The first approach is referred to as the 'gainful worker' or 'usual status approa'ch' and the second one as the 'labour force approach'. The concept of income is generally associated with the usual status approach and that of time with labour force approach. Theoretically, both the approaches are basically the same since they both refer to the large body of persons who are economically productive but the usual status approa:ch is likely to include those who do not work but earn such as pensioners, rentiers, etc. and exclude unpaid family 'workers or those who worked but did not earn. Information on the basic economic characteristic of popvJation has been collected from the earliest Censuses in this country since 1972. In the Census of 1872 ar- Hempt was made to collect data on 'occupa­ tion'. In the 1881 Census, no distinction was made between earners and dependents, workers and non­ workers. The occupation of every person who actually did work and the chief source of income of fhos'e having any occupation were recorded. At the 1901 Census actual workers and dependents were distin­ guished. In 1911 and 1921 no change was made in the definition of actual workers and dependents except that in 1921 women and children were also classified as workers if they did any work which contributed to the family incomc. In the 1931 Census for the first time, a person was clas~ified as an earner or dependent with an intermediate category of working dependent. In the 1941 Census the term 'earner' was given up and the concepts of 'fully dependent' and 'partly dependent' was introduced. In the 1951 Census the concent of self supporting persons and 'earning dependents' were introduced. In the 1961 Census the categorisation was on the basis of workers and non-workers. In the 1971 Census for the first time the non-workers were also identified. In .1981 C-ensus the work concept of 1961 and 1971 Censuses, as opposed to 'income' or 'economic inde­ pendence' concept of earlier Census is adopted for 19-.31 Census. But' the criterion for classification of per­ sons as worker is changed. While in the 1961 and 1971 Censuses different approaches, namely, usual status 6 and current status were adopted with reference pedod of one year and one week for seasonal and for regular work respectively, at the 1981 Census the usual status approach is .adopted uniformly for all work. In the 1961 and 1971 Censuses classification as worker Or non-worker was made through different criteria. In 1961 a person qualified as a worker if he had wor:(ed regularly during the last season or if he had worked at least for a day in regular (Non-seasonal) work during the preceding fortnight. At the 1971 Census a persOll was treated as a worker only if he spe~t his time mainly. in work or if he worked at least for a day in regular (non-seasonal) work during the precedmg week. The dlchotomy of worker/non-worker of 1961 and 1971 Censuses is discarded at the 1981 Census and instead a trichotomy of m~in workers, marginal worker and non-workers is adopted. For main worker the time criterion of engagement in those ,who worked for sometime during the last year but not for the majol' part are treated as marginal workers. Those who had never worked during the last year are non-workers. This trichotomy partially permits a coparability of 1981 Census economic data with that of 1971 as well as 1951. The main workers of 1981 Census 'can be expected to correspond to the worker's of 1971 and the main workers and marginal workers of 1981 together to correspond to the workers of 1961. In order to enable the readers to be more clear about the changes of concepts during the Censuses of the contrary, a synoptic account of the classification of workers during the Censuses commencing from ]901 is given below:

1901,1911 and 1921 :-Persons were categorised b~tween actual workers and dependent. Actual workers group included all person who actually did work or carried on business whether personally or by means of servant or who lived on house rent, pension etc. The persons who are not actual workers are dependent. 1931: Population was divided into three c~asses, viz., 'earner' 'working dependent' and 'non-working dependent'. An earner was defined as person with permanent and regular work for which return. was obtained in cash or kind which helped to augment the family income. Working d.-pendent was classified as a person who assisted with the work of the family and contributed to its support wthout actually earning any wage. A non-working dependent was one who did not work or has no occupation. 1941: Each person was classified into the following categories: i) A person who have no income in cash or kind was wholly dependent. ii) A person who contributed in cash or kind towards the support of the household without being defi­ nitely capable of supporting himself was partly dependent. iii) A person who was not dependent on any other persons was an independent worker. 1951: The 1951 Census ascertained the economic status and the means of livelihood of every person. Every person was labelled either as a self-supporting person or an earning dependent or non-earning dependent. A self-supporting person was one, who was in receipt of an income sufficient at least for his own interest. A person whose income was not sufficient to support him/her was classified 'Earning dependent' while the person who had no income, whatsoever, wa~ treated as 'Non-earning dependent'. The definitions adopted in 1951 and earlier censuses indicate that income was taken as the criterion for classification while from 1961 onwards the classification of workers and non-workers was based upon the factor of his/her engagement and not on his/her income. 1961: In ] 961 Census the population was divided into workers and non-workers with an emphasis on productive work affording gainful employment and thus eliminated the earlier definition of self-supporting persons and dependents. In 1961 a person was qualified as a worker if he had worked regularly during the last season or if he had worked at least for a day in regular (Non-seasonal) work during the preceding fort­ night. 1971: In 1971 Census a person was treated as worker only if he had spent his time mainly in work or he had worked at least for a day in regular (Non· seasonal) work during the preceding week. In 1961 and 1971 Censuses different approaches namely usual and current status were adopted. In 1961 reference period was one year and one fortnight respe!;:tively for seasonal and for regular (Non-seasonal) work while in 1971 those were one year and one week re~?ective1y. In 1981 Census and instead, a trichotomy of categorising individual into three categories have been adopted, 7

i) Main workers ii) Marginal workers iii) Non-workers ~ Besides these an attempt has also been taken to elicit the information about any subsidiary work which an individual may carry out in addition to his main activity. Main workers are those who worked for the Major part of the year, i.e. at least 183 days in the year pre­ c-eding to the reference date of the Census. Marginal workers who worked for sometime during the last year but not for the major part. Non-workers who have never worked during the last year. The Main workers have further been classi­ fied in four broad categories, i.e. (i) Cultivators Oi) Agricultural labourers, (iii) Household industry, (iv) others. Cultivators: For purposes of the Census a person is working as cultivator if he or she is engaged either as employer, single worker or family worker in cultivation of land owned or held from Government or held from private persons or institution for payment in money, kind or share. Cultivation includes supervision or direction of cultivation. A person who has given out his/her land to another person or persons for cultivation for money kind or share or crop and who does not even engage himself in supervision or direction of cultivation of land will not be treated as cultivators. Similarly a person working in another person's land for wages in cash or ki.nd of a 'combination of both will not be treated as cultivator. Cultivation involves ploughing, sowing and harvesting and production of cereals and millet crops such as wheat, paddy, jawer, bajra, ragi etc. and other crops such as sugarcane, ground-nuts, tapioca and pulses etc., raw jute and kindered fibre crop, cotton etc. and does not include fruit growing, vegetable growing or keeping orchards or groves or working on plantation like tea, coffee, rubber, cinchona and other medicinal herbs. Agricultural labourers: A person who works in another pen~on's land for wages in money, kind or share should be regarded as an Agricultural labourer. Such person who has no risk in the cultivation but merely works in another person's land for wages and thus having no right of lease or lease or contract on land on which he/she works are treated to be Agricultural labourers. Household industry: Workers engaged in any production, processing, servicing or repair of goods were classified as Household industry. The essential features of a Household industry are as follows: i) A household industry must relate to the production, processing servicing, repair of goods or making and selling of goods. ii) Professions such as that of a Lawyer, Doctor, Barber, Musician, Dhobi, Astrologer, Pandit, Priest etc. are not household industry. So also, activities relating to banking, insurance, real estate, business services are not Household Industry. iii) Any activity which involves only buying and selling of goods without any element of processing etc. does not constitute Household Industry. iv) The head of the household and/or one or more member of the household must actually participants in the industry. Patricipation also includes supervision and direction. However, if the industry is run mainly, by hired labour it is not a Household Industry. There may be a few hired labourers but the participation has to be mainly by members of the household. v) In urban areas, the industry must be located in the premises of the house in which the household lives if it is to be classified as a Household industry. vi) In rural areas, the industry may be anywhere within the limits of the village, it need not be actually located in the house in which the household lives. vii) The industry should not be on the scale of a registered factory. viii) The production should be mainly for sale and not for consumption by the household itself. Other Workers: All workers i.e. those who have been engaged in some economic activity during the last year, who are not cultivators or agricultural labourers or in household industry are clasified as 'Other workers'. The type of workers that come un.der this category include factory workers, plan.tation. workers, those in trade, ,,?mmerce, business, transport, mining, contstruction, political or social work, all Government servants, muni­ CIpal employees, teachers, priests, entertainment artist;; etc. In fact all those who work in any field or economic activity other than cultivator agricultural labourers or household industry are 'Other workers'. 8

HISTORY OF DISTRICT

Tripura was a princely State. Bir Bikram Kishore Manikya was the last Maharaj!t. After the death of Bir Bikram Kishore Manikya on May, 1947, a council of regency under the leadership of his widowed wife Maharani Kanchanprava Devi took over charge of. administration on behalf of the' minor prince Kirit Bikram Kishore Manikya. Monarchy came to it end on Sep.ember, 9, 1947, with the signing of the agreement of merger of Tripura with the Indian Union by the Maha 'ani on 15th Octoper, 1949. Tripura was taken as a Part-C State administered by Chief Commissioner, Tripura became a Union Territory on November 1, 1956. The Territorial Council was formed on August 15, 19)9. The dissolution of Territorial Council and forma­ tion of Legislative Assembly and a Council of Ministe ~s on Jhly, 1963 were notable events. Finally Tripl!fa became a full-fledged State on January, 1972. The Districf adntinistnition was run by one District Magis~ trate and Collector upto 31.8.1970. For better attentDn of problems of land and tenancies, for accalerating the pace of development in this backward are a especi111y. in the remote Tribal areas and for bringing the people closer to the administration Tripura was divid. d ~nto thre.e districts viz., North Tripura District, West Tripura District and South Tripura District. Three D:str.Ict, Magls.tr1ates a~d Colleotors were appointed for. th,< three Districts from 1.9. 1970. While it was one ~lstnct U.mon Terntory there were 10 Sub-Divisions. When she became a full-fledged State, the 10 Sub-Divi,IQqs remamed the same. The West Tripura District is comprised of three Sub-Divisions viz.~ Khowai, Sad~r and Son~mura \~hil.e North Tripura District is com­ prised of Kailashahar, Dharmanagar and KamalpUl; and, Sout~ ~npura DIstnct comprised of remaining Udai­ pur, Amarpur, Belonia and Sabroom Sub-Divisions. The !?lstnct Headquarter of this District i.e. West Tripura is situated at Agartala Town which is also the capItal of the State. Out of the six principal hill ranges namely Baramura and part of Atharamura fall within the District. The principal rivers of this District are Gomati, Howrah and Khowai. While Tripura as a whole lies approximately between the North latitude 22°56' and 24°32' and between longitude 91°0' and 92°20' east, the West Tripura district lies approximately between latitude 23°16' to 24°14' North and longitude 91 °09' East to 91 °47' East. The West Tripura District is bounded by Bangladesh in the North and West by North Tripura in the east and by South Tripura in the South. The West Tripura District has got an area of 3033 Sq. Km. out of 10,486 Sq. Km. area of ,the whole State, Due to merger of Ganganagar Tehsil (328 Sq. Km.) to North. 'Tripura from West Tripura during 1971-81 the area of West Tripura District became the smallest during 1981 Census but yet it possesses the maJSimum population (976,252) out ot 2,053,058 of the whole State.

PHYSICAL ASPECTS Tripura was known as 'Hill Tipperah' and the very much nomenclat\lre is suggestive of its hilly nature .of undulating surface made uneven by illtcr-sparced low hills. A series hill ranges running North and South divide the territory into broad parallel valleys, consisting of undulating tillas (hillocks) covered with jungle \.... ith totuous streane. There are six principal hill ranges in the State increasing in height as one moves West to East (from the sum it of the ranges one has a striking vi;w of the surroundings a heaving menetory of ever­ green landscope). Out of the six principal ranges, Baramura and Deotamura ranges and Atharamura ranges partly fall within West Tripura. 1. Baramura Deotamura Range: The portion of the above ranges lying in West Tripura District is the Baramura range which is almost 47 Km. having the highest peak Saisum Sib (249 Mtrs.). 2. Atharamura Range: This range starts from Amm'pur Sub-Division of South Tr,ipura' District and then enters into the Khowai Sub-division of West Tripura and runs along the border of West Tripura and North Tripura District. Its highest peak in the West T,ripura District is Niungnanwra (481 Mtrs.). . The ever green,ness of hill ranges of Tripura is going to be a history day by day to us no question of poste­ rIty as barrenness IS going to replace it due to indiscriminate feeling of trees,

A~thetic sense were very much prevalent in Tripura. That it is so would be evident from the fa:ct that the tribal ladies use wild flowers as their apparei" wh~n they come to market or fair besides their festivals. But when there is a conflict between asthetic seme and necessity, necessity is bound to prevail upon asthetic sense. Due to influx of refugees there have ben indiscriminate fellings of trees which have affected the hill.. ocks like anythiJ1g. The hungry man rather striving ones would not care for the long term deal as they are to make their body and soul together at any cost. They live on falling of trees for selling them as fuelS. Dependent on fuel.s could be avoided to a great extent if other means of livelihood were open to them. This 9 could be possible if there products would fetched a rea ,;mable price which depends upon easy communication facilities. It is really shocking when we find ourselves in a land locked area without communication facilities, inland water facilities, no question of rail communication which is the only means of transport at a minimum 'COst. It is no wonder that the container costs more than the content and as air is only means of transport of perishable articles. Human and material resources are plenty and the same could be fruitfully exploited if there were incentives to the producers in getting their dues simply for their existance. The following rivers flow within the West Tripura District;- Gomati: The Gomati which is the principal river is formed by the confluence of two revultes; Raima and Sarma. The Raima originates from the Longtharai range and the Sarma from the Atharamura range and the two meet near 'Dhuchaibari' in the South Eastern boundary of the South Tripura District and then assuming the name of Gomati Nadi running through gorges upto the Dumbur fall in the Amarpur Sub­ division. Gomati with length of 133 Kms. a big river and runs across the Amarpur and Udaipur Sub­ divisions of South Tripura District and Sonamura Sub-division in West Tripura Distriot and then flows to­ wards Bangladesh by the side of Sonamura Town of West Tripura District. The tributories of the Gomati river on the right bank are Labachhara, Datakchhara, Sarbongchhara, Saugang, Patavgang and Noachhara and on the left bank are Rambhadhachhara, Ekchhari, Chelagang, Kur­ machhara, Maharanichhara and Ranigan. Khowai :-Source of the river is the Longtharai range. It is_ 166 Kms. in length and it takes its way almost towards North-Western direction upto Teliamura of West Tripura district and then towards North till it enters into Bangladesh. Its tributaries on the right bank are Baluchhara, Jeulchaara, Chamalchhara, Al1adiachhara, Baskarachhara, Maharanichhara, Tuirupachhara, Samruchhara and Lalchhara and on the left bank are Gule­ chhara, Nunachhara, Kakrachhara, Brahmachhara, ,Sarduchhara, Trishnachhara, Gangraichhara and Solaichhara. Howrah :-It rises from the Baramura range and its tributaries are Dowaigang, Ghoramara and Debda On the right bank and Charupanadi, Dhobatilachhara and .?angeswargang on the left bank. The length of Howrah river is 53 Km. and it flows towards west and enters into Bangladesh by side of Agartala Town, the capital of the State. Burigang :-It rises from Baramura and flows towards west and ultimately enters into Bangladesh.

There are long river valleys extending over a va~t area in different Sub-divisions formed mostly of deep a\luvial deposits with rich fertility excellently suited for the cultivation of paddy, Jute, Oil seeds, spices, fruits and vegetables would be evident from the aforementioned position. The source of all rivers are in Tripura itself. Due to indiscriminate felling of trees the echology of Tripura is being affec,ted to a great extent. Human beings and trees belong to the category of living species. There is a gap of feeling which might be attributed to the factors of immediate benefit as the very question of subsistence is involved parti­ cularly when the majority of the people in Tripura are below poverty line. Exploitation and not extinction should be the way of life. If that be the case the forest resources which are national wealth should be pre­ served in such a way that they are exploited and not extinct. Else danger is inherent in expressing their dis­ pleasure. The signs of danger are apparent when we see erosion of soils due to indiscriminate felling of trees. There is uneven rainfall. Water flows merry-go-round. It carries sands which turns into deposits causing heavy damage to fertile lands which are going to be scarce particularly when the population i~ in­ creasing in geometrical progression.

CLIMATE;

The climate of the District, keeping in conformity with the general climate of the State as a whole is tropical in nature and is generally warm and humid. The hilly regions naturally in winter in comparison with the plain lands because of the fact that they participate in greater degrees in cold and hot wind. The climate is woven with three distinct seasons namely summer, rainy and winter. The general range of the climate temperature is between 10°0 and 35°c. The coldest months of the year are December, January and February with the lowest temperature in January followed by summer during the months from March to May. The highest temperature is generally recorded. The south-west monsoon reaches the State in the months from June to September. Rainy season generally starts by about the end of May but thunder showers usually occur from about April to the break of the monsoon. The rainy season continues upto September. The maximum rainfall is usally recorded during the months of June-July. The months of October and Novem­ ber constitute the post-monsoon ~eason. 10

GEOGRAPHICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE DISTRICT

The rock formations of the West district range in age from Mid-Territory (15 million years) to recent. The general geology is represented by the repeatitive succession of argillaceous and arenaceous sedimen­ tary rock like sandstone, shale and clay belonging to the (Bhuban and Boka-Bil subrroups of) Surma Group. Tipam Group and Dupitila Group. Quite a large part of this District is occupied by the recent fluvial deI>O­ sits. The sedimentary rocks are deformed and folded.

The general geology reflects, tectonically, a part of mobile trough, 'Ybos~ evolution has taken place gradually from the mobile geosyncline, east of the present site by the uplifts and reaction of basements ncar shield areas.

MINERALS:

Lignite: Lignite occurrences have been reported from Betage and Sabrim. The lingnite is pyritiferous and belong to non-caking variety. \ The deposits are very small and under considerable rock over and so can­ not be economically worked. Plastic Clay: There are a few small pocket;; of plastic clay in the district which can be used for the manufacture of roofing tiles and potteries. Natural Gas: There are several gas seepages in the district.

SOIL:

Tripura is the land of hills and hillocks. Normally the soil is lateritic with less water absorption capacity. Soil of the hills and hillocks are unpromising, the word humus. The flat land in between the hillockS! com­ monly known as 'lunga' is alluvial in nature consisting of sand slit and clay. These flat lands are of course fertilised in most of the cases for growing paddy, jute, rabi crops etc. Density: While the total area of the State is 10,486 sq. km., the area of West Tripura District is 3,033 sq. km. The area of the other two district viz., South Tripura District and North Tripura District are 3,581 sq. km. and 3,872 sq. km. respectively consequent upon the merger of Ganganagar tehsil comprising an area of 327.76 sq. km. with the North Tripura District from the West Tripura District. The North Tripura District attend the highest area among the three while the West Tripura District the smallest. According to 1981 Census total population stands at 20,53,058 out of which West Tripura District shares a population of 976,252 which constitutes 47.55% of the total population of the State. Taking the popula­ tion into account the South Tripura District holds the lowest position with population 535,558 among the threo while West Tripura District comprises the highest population and North 541,248. Density of population of West Tripura District is 322 that of North Tripura District is 140 and that of South Tripura District is 150. The densities of South Tripura District and North Tripura District are quite low incorporation that of \Vest Tripura District. The density of population of this District is much higher than the State average of 196 sq. km. In 1971 Census, the density of the population of the district was 224 sq. km. This goes to show that there is a comiJerable increase in the density of population during the last decade.

FOREST:

It is true that the State as a whole was, in the bygone days, far richer in forest wealth but with the in­ creasing pressure on land through population irtcrease has rendered this rich forest susceptible to decay, through the prOQess of reckless falling of the tlees for different reasons like settlement of landuse and jhumes in some cases and for also augmenting the revenue of the erstwhile princely State even since the past great wars. With the increase in population, the pressure on land was intensive and the tall trees of the forest had to give way to the increasing need of settling the refugees who came in exodus to this tiny State as well as for maintaining jhum cycle for the considerable percentage of Tribal who still continues to practice jhum culti­ vation. Without being scholarly to discuss the extent of ecological imbalances created by such indiscriminate 11 exploitation of forest for immediate reasons, it is very much clear that the State has suffered quite heavily in this forest wealth during the past decades. According to the Forest Department records, Tripura had an area of 6297.82 sq. km. under forest in 1970-71 while in 1961-62 the forest area was 6352.52 sq. km. This area has further decreased in 1981-82 to 5920.30 sq. km. constituting of reserve forest, "proposed reserve forest and' proteotive forest, out of which, the reserve forest area is 3571.38 sq. km. The district-wise distribution of different type., of forests is gven below:- R.F. (Sq. km.) P.R.F. (Sq. km.) P.F. (Sq. km.) Total (Sq. km.) North Tripura 1677.84 . .-J 800:43 2478.27 West Tripura 720.51 102.82 498.40 1321.73 South Tripura 1173.00 18g,58 758.69 2120.30 Total: 3571.38 291.40 2057.52 5920.30 It needs scarcely any mention here that the area recorded as protected forest has in fact undergone a heavy denudation by the repeated and extensive jhuming in the past as well as for allotment of a considerable quantity of land under this category for jhumia and landless population. In fact the area recorded under reserve forest has still maintained its sacredness of its term to some extent whereas the proposed reserve forest area has experienced a trend of continuous decrease d~lfing the decade as would be evident from the statement appended herewith. The sixth Five Year Plan aims at conserving optimum management and utilisation of forest, raising new plantation for industrial and commercial use in replacement of the destroyed natural forests and also towards improving standard of the people in the forest areas. The total outlay proposed in the forestry sub-sector during the present Five Year Plan is Rs. 1250.00 lakhs though not yet finalised. It is a bright feature that afforestation has been given a considerable stress during the decade to compensate the exploitation of forest wealth which will be evident from the statement appended herewith (Annexure-I). The changes in ,areas of forest for the years during the decade commencing from 1971-72 in the State is also appended below:- Forest area (in sq. km.)

The experimentation .for introduction of rubbcr plantation, whioh was found suitable for the soil "nd climatic condition of the State has also proved to be sucessful and thus brightened the prospect of this sector which might go a long way in the total ec.onomic development of the State as a whole. The total area under rubber plant<\tion has been increased to 3320.77 hectares from the experimental minimum of 5.80 hectares in 1963. The Tripura Forest Development and Plantation Corporation Limited, a public sector enterprise under the State Government have also taken intensive programme of development of rubbeI plantation in the whoie State as well as West Tripura District. Coffee plantation is another addtion in the sector which has attained a coverage of 101,83 hectares in 1981 from 2.40 hectares in 1975. Tripura, being a land locked State and ha·';ng constraint in importing coal for domestic. use. The extent of fire-wood suppli~d from forests is about 177000 cu.m. The supply of firewood from the forest is also a main source of livylihood for the population residing in the interior forest area. The quantity of timber produced from the forest as in 1980-81 is about 37204 cU.m. As stated earlier, the details for the district in particular are lacking but the overall picture of the State will reflect the position as obtained in the West Tripura District. 13

HISTORY OF DISfRICT CENSUS HANDBOOK

The District Census Handbook was first introduced under the 1951 Census. 1951 District Census Hand­ book was a dry bone as simply the Census data were included -therein. Flesh and blood were added to the same during 1961 by incorporating the information relatin g to amenities. 1951 and 1961 series of Distriot Census Handbooks were in relation to one district as Trlpura was a single district territory. In 1970, Tripura was divided into three districts and three separate District Census Handbooks were published in connection with 1971 Census. Primary Census Abstract presenting the basic Census data for each village/ward/town found place in the 195.1 District Census Handbook. Improvements were affected in 1961 Census Handbook by incorporating additional information in the form of village notes at the tirpe of actual enumeration. Some important non-Census data like facilities of educational, medtQal, postal etc. which were available in the village were also included. The Handbook also provided short introduction of Tripura showing the area, location, physical aspects, hill ranges, plains and river basins, "climate and rainfall, class' of soil, forests, agri­ culture, industries and an account of the historical development of the place as well as some basic informa­ tion about the peQ'ple, their common diseases and calamities they suffered from. The statistics relating to rainfall, temperature, agriculture, industries, administration, medical and public health, education etc. as maintained by various Government offices were also incorporated. Thus in addition to the Census data, non­ Census statistic,S were also made available. It was expected that this would serve as a convenient reference book to the data users of different fields for planning, administraves and other purposes. Nevertheless, continuocs charges were observed in the nature of information required by various data users of the country. Sometimes, there were conflicting demands from different persons or organisations who were frequently guided by their segmental fields of interest. The Census Organisation if India carefully considered all such points and with an insight of its own, determined the different sorts of information which should be presented in the District Census Handbook of 1971 Census. Thus in 1971 Census, planning and efforts have been made to compile both Census and n011- Census statistics down to the village level throughout the country in a fairly comprehensive and uniform manner. The main changes in the Village Directory Schedule of 1971 Census from that of 1961 are, inclusion of information about the availability of a few additional amenities, like existence of katcha/pucca roads, dis­ tance from nearest town, types of educational institutions and land use data as desired by the Ministry of Food and Agriculture, Government of India. In order to make the publication of village level statistics, covering largely non-Census data, available as early as possible to the data users, it was de'cided that the District Census Handbook should be brought out in three parts, viz., Part A: TOwn and Village Directory Part B: Village and Town-wise Primary Census Abstract Part C: Analytical Report and Adminstration Statements and District Census Tables. Part A in relation to town and village directory and Part B in relation to village and town-wise Primary Census Abstract were combined together for eacp district so far Tripura is concerned. So for Part C in relation to Analytical Report and Administration Statements and District Census Tables is ooncerned infor· mation regarding three districts have been compiled in the same volume. The third part of 1971 Census, that is, Part C consisting of administrative and Census: statistics, has been dropped due to considerable delay in getting the administrative statistics pertaining to the various departments which caused inordinate delay in publication of the District Census Handbook. • The position as it would obtain during 1981 Census in respect of Town Directory and Village Directory is as follows:-

Part-A: Town Directory: The Town Directory consists of seven statements. All these are almost similar to those adopted for 1971 Census. A: f~w new columns have been introduceu in the statements with a view to facilitating analysis of the data. A slglllficant addition is of class of town in every statement. The infrastructure of amenities and faci­ lities found in urban India can best be analysed by taking the class of town into consideration. The addition of the column of civic administration status in statements III & IV and population in Statements IV, V & VII also serve the same purpose vis-a-vis the respective statements. W?ile preparing the formats of the Town Directory, the Minimum Needs Programme of the Planning CommIssion has been kept in view. The columns on Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes population Statement IV and adult literacy classes/centres in Sta"tement V are as equal to this programme. 14

Again, if the fire-fighting service as in Statement IV and medical or educational facilities as in Statemen.t V are not available in the town, the name of the nearest town if in the same district or the name of the nearest district if in the same State or other State where available along with its distance from the referrant twon should be given. This is again a new feature of 1981 Census as it is necessary to identify the areas with 110 specific facility in every district. Village Directory: The format of the Village Dire'e-tory is also on the pattern canvassed in 1971 Census except for a few additional columns. The column on total population and number of household is added to facilitate analysis of the Village Directory data. The column on approach to vilage is to know how many inaccessible villages there are in a district. A feature of format for 1981 Census is its restructural. All the amenities except power supply in the village have been brougl1t together with the instruction that in case any amenity is not available in the village the distanoe in broad ranges of the nearest places where in the amenities available is to be given. Part-B: Village and Town-wise Primary Census Abstract: The Primary Census Abstract format has been modified which has been discussed under the item, scope of 'District Census Handbook'. 15

SCOPE OF VILLAGE DIRECTORY, TOWN DIRECTORY STATEMENT AND PRIMARY CENSUS ABSTRACT Part-A: Village and Town Directory purports to be a directory of the villages and the towns in the district concerned. In it has been given certain hasic and vital information separately for each village and town. \Vhile the Village Directory presents information inter-alia about the total area of the village in hec­ tares, availability or otherwise of the various amenities, the staple food of the people of the village and the land use pattern, the town directory, on the other hand, presents data on each town through as many as seven statements, giving the status of the town, the decadal growth of its population, its functional category, certain physical aspects, the state of municipal finances and of civic and other amenities, like medical, educational, recreational, cultural and banking etc. The basic Census data are incorporated in Part-B of the District Census Handbook. The village and town-wise Primary Census Abstracts which constitute Part-B of the District Census Handbooks, contain information about the total population and its sex-wise break-up, the sex-wise population of Scheduled Castes and number of literates separately for the two sexes and break-up of the total population into industrial Cate­ gories of workers etc. So far Village Directory of Part-A is concerned the statement for 1971 contained 18 columns for eluci­ dating information regarding amenities and land use, whereas the statement for 1981 contains 20 columns. Out of these 20' columns one column is in relation to the approach to village which was not distinctly avail­ able in 1971 against the column of communication and the other column of 'Total population and number of Households' is a new introduction. In 1971 information of amenities available within the villages only were collected but one distinctive feature of 1981 Village Direc;tory is that information if no amenities were avail­ able within the village than the distance ranges of the nearest place where such amenities are available have to be mentioned and the also in three broad ranges, i.e. 0-5 Kms., 5-10 Kms. and 10+ Kms. Moreover, twOl new appendices, i.e. Appendix-III and Appendix-IV, have been added in 1981. Appendix-III is in relation to list of villages where no amenities are available (educational, medical etc.). Appendix-IV relates to list of villages according to population of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes to the population by ranges. So far Town Directory is concerned there were 7 statements in 1971 and in 1981 also there are 7 state­ ments but with some (either in terms of dropping or in terms of addition) as mentioned below:- In statement-I functional category of town as was found in 1961 and 1971 has been dropped and the name of Sub-division has been dropped in all statements and name of block has been incorporated. Growth rate, area in sq. kms., number of households including houseless households, density and sex ratio are tho new additions for 1981 District Census Handbook. Information regarding name of town and civic adminis­ tration status were collected under two different columns in the format of 1971 whereas these two columns have been combined in the format of 1981. In statement-II against Col. 2, name of town has been changed as class and name of town, Columns like ·Sea Port' and 'Remarks' as was found in 1971 format have been dropped. In statement-III against Column 2, name of town has been changed as class and name of town. Besides, {me new column of 'Civil administration status' (in 1980) has been added. In statement-IV against Column 2, in relation to name of town it has been changed as class and name of town. Besides, Col. 3, that is, civil administration status (in 1980), Column 4 population, Column 5 Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes population are new additions. Statement-IVA Civil and other amenities in Notified Slums, 1979 is a completely new addition. In statement-V against Column 2, name of town has been changed as class and name of town. Column 3, i.e. population is a new addition. Information regarding Higher Secondary and Secondary were collected throug~ one column i.e. Col. 10 of 1971 whereas the information relating to Higher Secondary and Secondary are bemg collected separately during 1981 through Cols. 11 and 12 whereby two columns have been introduced for collection of information for Higher Secondary and Secondary separately. Col. 16, Le. working women's hostel with number of seats is a new addition during 1981 Census. ' In statement-VI against Col. 2, name of town has been changed as class and name of town. Col 15 i.e. 'Remarks' of 1971 format has been dropped. In statement-VII against Col. 2, name of town has been changed as class and name of town. Statement­ VII of 1971 in relation to population by religion, 1971 has been dropped this time. 16

PART-B: VILLAGE/URBAN PRIMARY CENSUS ABSTRACT: Category-III relating to livestock, forestry, fishing, hunting and plantations, orchards and allied activities, category-IV in relation to mining and quarrying <.tnd Category-V(b) in relation to manufacturing, processing, servicing and repairs, category-VI in reiation to construction, category-VII relating to Trade and Commerce, category-VIII relating to transport, storage and communications and category-IX relating to other services have been clubbed under 'Other workers' in the format of 1981. Column 2S and 26 meant for collecting information regarding marginal workers is a new addition for 198\. 17

MAJOR CHARACTERISTICS OF ECONOMIC RESOURCES IN THE DISTRICT

The economy of Tripura, as a whole is preJominently agrarian and rural based with the vast majority of the population residing in the rural areas. A very high perc.ent!l.ge of population depends o~ agri'~ultu~e and allied activities for their livelihood. On the other hand.' q~llte a les~ p~rcentagc ~f land avaIlable 1.S smt­ able for agriculture. South Tripura District, a component Dlstnct of this tmy State IS also no exceptlon to such constraints. The various constraints of special characteristics which the State as well as the District suffer from, may be summarised as below: 1. There is dearth of cultivable land in the Stat.3 a's well as in the West Tripura District. 2. Increase in population is causing heavy pressure on land and thus depleting the average size of the operational holding of agricultural land to further minimum. 3. Impact of plan investment is considerably decreased due to siphoning out of a large portion of in­ come generated by the plan investment outside the state for import of essential commodities in­ cluding food grains. 4. The rural population constitutes 93.08% of the total population of the State while wide difference in development exists between rural and urban areas. 5. The State suffers from serious botleneck in regard to industrialisation for the lack of good comh1U- / nication system both within the state and with Assam to which the state has an opening with the main land, though there is a continuous endeaver to improve the communication system from the side of the Government. 6. The shifting cultivation of the Tribals locallY known as 'Jhum cultivation' is still being continued in a large area especially in the hilly terrains resulting in denueding of natural forests and thus causing soil erosion and silting of the rivers. 7. Frequent flood and droughts repeated damage to the economy. 8. The percentage of the people below the poverty line is 83.08.% in 1973-74 with a sharp increase from 63.02% prevailing in 1969-70. The per capita> iacome at current price was Rs. 813/- (1975-76) which is far below the per capiHl' income of Rs. 1,005/- for the country in J975-76. 9. The situation of the State and the district with a big stretch of border with Bangladesh makes its economy susceptible to detorioration by _illegitimate trade between the two countries. 10. The number of persons awaiting employment is also steadily increasing and taking a shape of un­ manageable proportion particularly in absence of large scale industries as the agricultural sectoIj suffers from almost saturation because of the high pressure of land. 11. The State as well as the district has a large SC /ST population who are still ba'ckward deserving inten­ sive care and efforts for bringing them to the level of development attained by the other sector of population. Keeping in view the above constraints and disparities., the Sixth Five Year Plan has been aimed to secure a positive and district improvement in the level of living of the people and a more equal distribution in ownership of assets, wealth and income. Sharing with the State, the West Tripura District is also very much dependent on import of essential commodities including food grains besides the (:onsumed goods, building materials, machineries and what not. In regard to impact of the plan investment, the observation of the State Government is 'Well it is true that some measure of development has been achieved during the three decades of planning but the benefit of the plan have not percolated to the large masses of the people with the result that the intensity of poverty has not been reduced to any significant extent.' The major characteristics of the District particularly in relation to the economic resources and situation are discu~sed in this chapt7r .. It needs mention here that the details of the administrative statistics particularly and speCIfically for the DIstnct could not be made aV"lilable from the State Government. Departments con- 18 cerned as yet and collection of such statistics might require a considerable time and thus would defeat the main purpose and intention of this publication to reach the data and information to the users without much time 'lag after the Census. Hence, it has been attempted to discuss the broad features of the district, instead of going in for detailed statistics on most of the items, which would not be insufficient to feed the readers to get an overall pi'cture of the district on its economical aspects.

AGRICULTURE The economy of Tripura as a whole is predominently agrarian and so also is in the case of the district. Agricultural situation of the West Tripura District differs to some extent from that obtained in other two districts in regard to topography soil, extent of rainfall, variation in temperature and humidity which has resulted in difference in cropping pattern also from that of the other two districts. Since, the end of Princely regime, agricultural development in the State has been attached with the priority of the highest magnitude to enrich the State with the integrated approaQh on agriculural develop­ ment after merging of the State with Union of India. An all out effort has been taken in the Government sector to wean way the tribals. The practice of Jhum cultivation who used to practice Jhum cultivation for their livelihood without having any experience 01' an inclination to plain land cultivation. The plain land people also were satisfied to grow single crop preferably paddy without having any knowledge and experience of improved method of cultivation for growing HlUltiple crops. The situation Charged after 1950 with the abrupt increase in population due to heavy influx of people frim the erstwhile East Pakistan and a consequent decrease of par capita cultivable land as a result of sudden pressure on land. Agricultural sector received continuous intensive stress in all the 5 year plans dlN to imperative neccessity for increasing production. The rainfall being the controlling feature for choice of crops posed as a problem in absence of minimum irri­ gation facilities. The availability of cultivable land is also limited in the State as almost 55% of the area is hills and hillocks where normal cultivation cannot be practised. Another constraints for better agriculture practice is the minimum size of the operational holdings. The paucity of plain land available for cultivation of cereal crops is also an imperative reason for attaching more stress on exploring possibility of horticultural sievlopment on hill land and introdutcion of plantation crops of economic value like black pepper, cocoa,' coffee, oinamon, high yielding early maturing varieties of cashewut, dwarf varieties like rabi, wheat, groundut, moong, valley, high yielding varieties of crops and maximum utilisation of land by growing multiple crops There was an all out effort from the side of the State Government to aecelerate and improve agricul­ tural activities so as to increase production in all levels. Extension agencies have been set up in the field level to arrange pouring down knowledge of recent agricultural technology to the cultivators and getting necessary feed back. Simuitaneously, steady mobilisation of inputs have bcen arranged to motivate the cultivators to switch over to improved technique of culivation. The Sixth Plan strategy is aimed at raising economic standard of people through improved agricul ural practices. The West Tripura District has also not lagged behind to enjoy the outcome of the different Govern­ mental schemes adopted to introduce the improved agricultural pattern and for raising the production of different crops with intregated approa:ch to improve the lot of agriculturist who form the major constituent of the population. INDUSTRIES Tripura is an industrially backward State. The State inherited a sterile fondal economy mainly agrarian in character with the bulk of population struggling below the poverty line. Before its merger with the Imlian Union, there \vas hardly any industrial activities of this native State. In 1945 in the Royal Court Budget, the expenditure under the combined head of Agriculture, Industry and Trade was only Rs. 18,331/- as against that ;n the very first Five Year Plan the outlay was Rs. 5.5 lakhs. Since then in each successive plan periods, there had been manifold rise in the plan provisions. The outlay for the last two five year plan have been as follows: Fifth Plan Rs. 474.20 lakhs. Sixth Plan Rs. 1,448.50 lakhs. The major sector wise distribution in the Sixth Plan are as under: Industries Rs. 59;;.50 Village & Small Industries Rs.850.00 Mining & Metallurgy Rs. 5.00 19

The provision in different heads under the annual plan 1981-82 are shown below:- Jute Mill Rs. 35.00 Paper Mill Rs. 0.05 Tea Rs. 27.56 Small sca!c Rs. 37.13 Industrial Estate Rs. 7.50 Khadi & Village Industries Rs. 7.00 Handloom Rs. 38.42 Handicrafts Rs. 8.20 Sericulture Rs. 33.00 Special employment programme Rs. 10.00 As against above, the total non-plan provision for 1981-82 is Rs. 64.71 lakhs. The State merged with the Indian Union on 15th October, 1949. We inherited a thoroughly bankrupt economy ever.whe}mingly agrarian in nature where the nitial years of independence required more development in the social services sector than the industrial sector. The steps towards industrialisation started in humble way from the 2nd five year Plan with the introduction of training-programme in different trades for industry through the industrial institutions and production­ cum-training centres. These efforts yielded results during the third and forth Five Year Plan periods. The people gradcally took up industrial venture in the Small and Village Industries Sector. The Government of Tripura provided modern industrial sheds in the five industrial estates set up in Korth, South and 'Vest Districts of the State. Industrial Training Institutes provided skilled workers, alongwith these, the Government of Tripura took up various liverilised incentives schemes' to attract entrepreneurs towards industrial avocation. It was soon realised that in spite of the best efforts of the Government of Tripura, there were crippling limitations on the part of the private sector entrepreneurs to achieve steady growth. The Tripura Govern­ ment, therefore, decided to fioat a number of industrial corporations to further streamline the commerciall activities involved in the growth of industries, last decade, therefore, witnessed the emergen'ce of the follow­ ing. corporations. l. Tripura Handloom & Handicrafts Development Corporation. 2. Tripura Industrial Development Corporation. 3. Tripura Tea Development Corporation. 4. Tripura Jute Mills Limited. Apart from that, the Tripura Small Industries Development Corporation was already existing looking after supply if scarce raw materials to the small scale units. This corporation also runs a number of indus­ tries like Pharmaceuticals, Fruit Canning and Brick Kilns etc. All the corporations named above are charged with specific areas of development. The activities of the abOve corporation with necessary particulars are given below as these corporations cover the West Tripura District as well along with other two Districts in extending its benefit to the artisan of the district through its different beneficial schemes. 1. Tripura Handloom and Handicrafts Development Corporation They are looking after development Handlom an I Handicrafts Authorised capital Rs. 75 lakhs 'Paid up capital (Upto 31.3.81) Rs. ,51.44 lakhs Sales turnover in 1981-82 Rs. 1. 77 crores Janata Saree production in 1981-82 2.3 million sq.m. 20

2. Tripura Industrial Development Corporation The Tripura Industrial Development Corporation has been recently reconstituted to look after industrial area development by setting up of new industrial estates with additional responsibility to act as financial insti­ tution. Authorised capital Rs. 1 crore Paid up capital (Upto 31.3.82) Rs. 161akhs Additional allotment (for providing industrial infrastructu re) Rs. 201akhs The infrastructural development work has been started at Dukli in tl}e out skirts of Agartala.

3. Tripura Tea Development Corporation The tea industry is most major industry of the State. Those tea estates were also defunct for good many years and of late the operation in the garden has started under the direct supervising agency of the State Government. On recommendation of the Planning Comnlission, the Tripura Tea Development Corporation has been floated in August, 1980 in order to cover new arcas under tea plantation. The present aim of the corporation is to cover an area of 5,000 to 8,000 acres over a span of 5 years. Funds a) From State budget Rs. 13 lakhs b) From N.E.C. Rs. 44 lakhs 4. Tripura Small Industries Development Corporation Ltd. The corporation acts as suppliers of raw material like iron and steel, mutton tallow, news print, paraffin wax, cement G.eI. The sales turnover in 1981-82 has gone upto Rs. 3 crores. It has established 14 brick: kilns with investment of Rs. 24 lakhs through the State and thus generated employment of about 3,600 workers. ELECTRICITY AND POWER Tripura is one of the most backward State in India regarding use of electricity for industries, irrigation, village elctrification etc. During· 1976-77, the per capita consumption in Tripura was 8.8 unit against all India average of 106 unit. According to data collected through Village Directory schedules the village electrification figure is also very poor in West Tripura District. Tripura had an installed capacity of 1725 k.w. in 1961. It was improved gardually to 3916 k.w. in the next 10 years, with the oommission of Gumti Hydro Electric Project (2X5 m.w. unit). The power deve­ lopment has gained some momentum during the last decade and Tripura has also a potential for generations of sufficient quantity of Thermal Power from natural gas, Oil and Natural Gas Commission is carrying out the exploration in this regard. The peak demand of power in the State is 17mw. of which 50% is being met out of own resource at Gumti consisting of 2 X 5 mw hydro generating station. The balance is imported. District-wise peak demand of lead is as below: a) South District- 2 MW b) North District- 3 MW c) West Distri<;t- 12 MW

The total number of consumers in the State IS 35,000 with 60% being in the West District and almost 20% each in South and North District. During last 5 years, there has been a substantial growth on consumption of power in agriculture sector which now constitutes nearly 10% of the total consumption of 40 mi11ion unit in the State reflecting 20 units per capita consumption of ekctrical energy. The State has 150 KW of 132 KV line running between Dharmanagar and Agartala and 100 KM length of line at 66 KV linking Gumti Power Station with Agartala. Sub-transmission and ditribu­ tion net work of line in the State is nearly 1500 KM and covers 1300 villages. 21

FISHERIES Due to topographical feature, the Fisheries reserve in the State are limited to ponds, tanks etc., besides newly created Hydel Project reservoir situated in the South Tripura District. The river system consisting of few main hilly stream flowing to Bangladesh do not support any fishery of commercial magnitude. In the Princely regime, the major portion of the requirement of fishes were used to be available from the then British India and this was sufficient for the small population of the State. Though the fisheries in the State have been improved both in regard to area, supply of inputs etc. pro­ duation increased during the preceeding years but still less than half of the present .estimated requirement of 10,800 M.T. The projected requirement at the end of Sixth Plan i.e. 1982-83 is 14,500 M.T. The wide gap is proposed to be narrowed to the maximum possible extent by modifying the strategy of the previous plan periods. MINES & MINERALS Unfortunately, Tripura has no major minerals available in the State. However, occurences of the following minerals have been reported from the district: Lignite :-Lignite oc'curences have been reported from different posts of the District. The lignite is pyreti­ ferous and belongs to non-caking variety. The deposits are very small and under considerable rock cover and so cannot be economically worked. Plastic clay:-There are a few small pockets of plastic clay in the District which can be used from the manufacture of roofing tiles and potteries. Natural Gas :-There are several gas seepages in the District. TENANCY In ancient Tripura, according to the Rajmala, no reference was available to know the basis on which the 'Rajkar' (royality) was charged in those days. It }),as, however, known' that the hill people used to pay the revenue in kind, such as various types of home-made clothes, brass, iron, ball-metal, ivory, horns of wild animal and even by serving the State instead of p'ayment of royality in cash. From the statistical account of Bengal (Vol. VI) by Sir W. W. Hunter, it was known that the Maharaja was the only zamindar as superior landlord in the whole State and used to make grants of lands in perpetuity and at a fixed rental. It could also be known that the land tenure system of the hill state was quite different from the plain area and the rate of revenue was comparatively low, that could be pa~d either in cash or in kind and the service tenure was .also prevalent., . Since 1290 T.E. (1880 AD.) an enactment called 'Rajaswa' Sambandhiya Niyamabali' on land tenure system was in vogue in Tripura which dealt with the procedure from collection of land revenue from the d,ifferent types of tenants like 'Kayemi Taluks' (permanently settled estates). 'Khas Mahals' (Government owned lands) and 'Karsha Praja' (cultivating tenants). This Act was followed by another enaatment called 'Praja' Bhumyadhikari Sambandha Bisauak Ain, 1296 T.C.' (1886-87 AD.) which dealt with the relationship between the land}ords and the tenants, matter relating to payment of re~ts, recovery of public demands, eviction of tenants, rights of raiyats etc. The first enactment relating to survey settlement in the State was introduced in the y~ar 1899 AD. under the style of Jarip-C-Bandobast Samban­ dhiya Niyamabali, 1309 T.E. '. Tripura Land Revenue and Land Reforms Act, 1960 came into force w.e.f. 14.4.1961. This comprehensive Act was aimed mainly to consolidate and amend the laws relating to land revenue and to bring out the land reforms measures in the State providing for acquisition of estates dnd security of tenures. This Act, as amended substantially be second amendment Act, 1974 and third amendment ~~t, .1975, seeks to remove the impediments against increase in agricultural production and removal of social lllJustIce in the agrarian system of the State by (1) giving security of tenure to cultivators of land who were termed as 'Korfaders' (under raiyats to Jotedars) and Bargadar (sharecropper) by bringing them into direct relationship with the Government (2) reducing ceiling on land holding to 2 standard hectares is the minimum apd 7:2 standard hectares at the maximum with retrospeotive effect from 24-1-71 (3) restricting transfer or parti­ !lOn of any land in certain circumstances to facilitate the operation of ceiling laws and (4) preparation of field mdex and correction and updating of records of rights.

Safeguards were provided to protect interest of the tribals over land throughout the Disrict with right of p~e-emption in areas predominantly inhabited by them. The law also provides that the lands alienated by the tnbals on or after 1-1-69 have to be restored by revenue officers specially empowered to take up such casl.!lO. 22

(a) Raiyat :-A raiyat is a person who owns land for purposes of agriculture paying land revenue to the Government. His rights over the land are permanent, heritable and transferable. He can erect build­ ing on his land, construct wells or tanks or undertake any other improvement measures for better cultiva­ tion of the land; likewise he can plant trees and enjoy the sufructs. He enjoys the piwer to lease out his land, which after the amendment of the Act in 1974 will be generally in perpetuity. Government may inter­ vene whenever he allows to keep the land uncultivated for a year. (b) Non-agricultural tenant :-A non-agricultural tenant is a person who holds land for purposes other than agriculture paying land revenue to the Government. (c) Allottee :-An allottee is a person who is allotted land by the Government and is liable to pay land revenue. His rights are heritable but not transferable within 10 years of allotment without the written con­ sent of the collector. (d) Bargadar :-A bargadar is a share-cropper. He is a person who oultivates the land of any person on condition of delivering a share of the produce of s\t~h land to that person. According to the peresent pro­ visions, a bargadar is liable to deliver not more than one-fourth of the produce to the land-holder if the plough cattle is suppled by the landholder and more than one-fifth if the plough cattle is not scpplied by the land holder. (e) Under-raiyat :-An under raiyat means a person who cultivate or holds the land of a raiyat on condition of paying therefor the rent in cash or in kind or delivering a share of produce and includes a bargadar (Share-cropper). An under raiyat is now allowed to hold the land as such in perpetuity except in the case where the raiyat is a disabled person. His intrest on such land is heritable but not transferable. Of Qourse, an under raiyat may create a simple mortgage or a charge on his interest in the land leased to him in favour of the Government or a Co-operative Society,a Bank or such other institutions approved by the Government against any loan advanced by such inst1~utions. The raiyat cannot realise from the under­ raiyat the rent in cash exceeding four times the land revenue of such land. A speoial drive was· taken by the Government to treat the Bargadars as the raiyats directly responsible to the Government. The ceiling laws were also operated against the land owners having land over the ceiling limits to take away the lands beyond ceiling fO'r allotment to landless agriculturists. Restoration of land to the tribal owners, who alienated the land on or after l.1.69 was also taken up by specially empowered revenue officer. According to the 'State report on Agricultural Census 1976-77 in Tripura', there are 246.6 thomand operational holdings covering a total area of 309.2 thOusand hectares which constitutes 29.5 percent of the total geographiqal area of the State. The remaining area of the State is covered by hills, forests and other lands not within the purview of the Agriculture Census. The same report indicates that though the South Tripura stands second to North Tripura District in regard to its geographical area amongst the three districts of the State, the percentage of area operated to its total area (22.7%) is higher than that of North Tri)Ura District (21.4%) but lower than that obtained in West Tripura District (48.1%). Average size of the holdings taking the State as a whole as obtained in 1976-77 was 1.25 hectares. The same average for the South Jripura District is 1.18 hectares while "West Tripura District has a better average of 1.21 hectare and the North Tripura District has the biggest average area of holding at 1.44 hectares. Out of the total 246614 holding in the State, South Tripura District shares 6976, better than 57546 of North Tripura District but quite lower than 119892 of West Tripura District. LAND AND LAND USE According to the 'State report on agricultural Ce1Sus of 1976-77 in Tripura', Tripura state has an area of 10491.69 sq. kms. and only 29.5 percent of the ar ~a of the State has come under agricultural operational holdings. The other area are covered by forests and other lands consisting mostly of high lands. Thus, the availability of plain lanJs, which are good for wet cultivation is very much limited. Net cultivated area is 85.7 percent of the total area of operational holdings. TRADE & COMMERCE The Tripura District Gazetteer published by the D::partment of Education, Government of Tripura gives us an idea about the course of trade, import and cxpoc:t of this State. In the past, there were exportable surplus of forest producH and of certain agricu1tural produce. Forest products were mainly exported to' the adjacent district of Assam and Bangladesh, namely, Sylhet, Tipperah and Noakhali and in smaller quantitie') to districts of Dacca, Bacherganj and Faridpur. There were three channels through which these products were eJlPorted. These were (1) River-route Mahal i.c. exported 23 by river-routes. All the main rivers of Tripura ~ow in~o Bangladesh. (2) Permit Mahal i.e. exports of minor forest produce by land route permits. These permIts entitled the holders to collect and make a shoulder-borne export independently i.c. without the help of anybod else, minor forest produce such as bamboo sungrass, fuel, etc. from the forest area. (3) Khushki Mnhal i.e. exports of timber, bamboo in bundles of 100, sungrass in bundle of 4(2 feet girth, fuel in cubic feet, bamboo mats in pieces, umbrella handle etc. by number. Among the exports of agricultural produce cotto!, seamam, jute, mustard, rice sugarcane etc. were the main items. Rice and sugarcane were mainly expor ed to the neighbouring district of Bangladesh through either land route or river route. But cotton was purchased by agents of important firms of Calcutta. 1'ripura's cotton is short-stapled and in Calcutta market, this is commonly called "Comilla Cotton". Jute was also controlled by a few agents of Calcutta or of Narainganj (Bangladesh). Oilseed was also taken to Calcutta by the purchasing agents operating in Tripura. Tea is also an important trade of export. It is directly sent by the respective gardens to Calcutta. Cottage industry products like handloom products, baskets, cane products, bamboo made curies and tinned fruit products like orange squash, pineapple jui :e, and also pineapples are being exported now. Tripura's imports consist of all manufactured goods used by the people of Tripura, cotton takkilcs in­ cluding readymade garments, cotton yarn and twists, woolen goods, metal and manufacturers thereof, machi­ nery (for tea gardens) motor vehicles cycles etc. hardware, sugar and molasses, kerosene oil, petrol, liquir, paper drugs and medicines, salt, spices, tobacco, coal, matches are the important items. Besides these manufacturers, rice, fish and eggs oil and ghee, fruits and vegetables, raw tobacco, wheat etc. are also imported. Among other items me.ntion may be made of books, cinema materials, livestock, gold and silver, clock and whatch, sugarcane, pressing machine, tea chests, umbrella with fittings, tinned food, cosmetics, leather goods, furniture, building materials etc. The same overall position still exists taking the State as a whole. Tripura, being a land locked State with limited resources and very less industrialisation, has to depend upon import of almost all materials of necessities as would be evident from the above extract. It may be partinent to say here that in Princely Regime, the communication system within the State wa~ really very much inadequate. The rulers of Tripura found it convenient to take advantage of the railway station, situated in British India contingous to the divisional town at that time. The other means of transport was by boats in the navigable river. After independence, the State Government had given stress on the need of cons­ tructing roads connecting Sub-divisional towns, block, headquarters etc. and village roads. Though the transport system still deserves improvement, Tripura Road Transport Corporation under the State Government have taken a major role in providing transport facilities within the State. The communication system in the District is also based mainly on the Bus services under the Tripura Road Transport Corporation and the Jeeps, Taxies, Mini Buses etc. belonging to the Private owners plying within the district. The important feature in the trade and commerce sector of the State is the emergence of the Co-operative institutions as one of the most vital agencies in the trade and commerce of the State. The Jute Corporation of India has also come up with the scheme of procur~ng jute on reasonable price from the producers. Setting up of a Jute Mill at Agartala during the last decade has opened up a new sector of trade and export of finished jute products. Tea Development Corporation has been set up to coordinate the activities in respect of one of the most important trade of the State in export of tea. The Tripura Handloom and Handicraft Corporation is also play­ ing a major role in popularising the cottage industry products of the State in the other parts of the country. The tinned fruit products like pineapple, slices, pineapple juice, orange squash etc. have also found a good mar­ ket in the country. Agartala, being the State capital with the main centre of trade and commerce through which most of the deals 'of imports into and except from Tripura takes places. The state has the only railway head in Dharmanagar in North Tripura District. 24

MAJOR SOCIAL AND CULTURAL EVENTS. NATURAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE DEVELOPMENT AND MISCELLANEOUS ACTIVITIES OF MODES DURING THE DECADE

Tripura attained statehood on the 21st January, 1972 which may be taken to be the most notable event of the decade. The changeover in the political character in the Ministry may not be termed as a major administrative deve­ lopment as such but a changeover from a continuous cOl\gress Government in the State to the present Ministry formed by a Front of Four Leftist Parties deserved mention. During the decade, the State suffered from an unprecedented social calamity in the form of the heinous communal riot during June, 1980. The age-old peaceful co-existence and harmony between the intermingled Tribal and Non-Tribal population of the State was severely affected due to this communal riot. West Tripura District and South Tripura District were the most affected district. Population of North Tripura District, of course maintained relatively calm despite stray incidences of violence, but a sence of fear and suspicion prevail­ ed between the two communities, who were so long good neighbours. Spell of floods and draughts in the decade causing repeated damage to the economy of the State were fre­ quent. North Tripura District with its hilly streamlets and rivers also experienced .flash floods in different low- lying areas. ( Places of tourists interest in the District. Rich in Flora and fauna, the scenic beauty of the hilly terrains, interspersed with splash green valleys in bet­ ween, of the District as a whole may attract the tourists to find solace in the calmness of the nature. The following places many find place in the tourists map of the District in particular. UJJAYANTA PLACE. "At the heart of the town of Agartala with in a compound covering ,an area of half a square mile, stand Ujjayanta 'Palace, the modern edifice of the royal house of Tripura. Th,e construction of this well-balanced and beautiful palace had to be under taken in 1899 inspite of the then stringent financial condition of the state because the old palace which was built in 1862 suffered very badly from a severe earth quake in 1898 and became unfit for habiation. It was completed in 1901 at a cost of little above Rs. 10 lakhs. The place is a two storied mansion having a mixed type of architecture with thlee high domes, the Central one being 86 ft. high. It had well-laid garden parks all around it and two large tanks on two sides, with the leading road in between them. The water course and fountains were laid in the pattern of the Moghul garden. The main block covers 800 acres and contains many public halls viz, the Throne Room, Durbur Hall, Library, study, Recreation Hall etc. After the merger of Tripura with the Union of India in 1949 the Royal Palace which was once full of life and brisk activity stood for lorn, being a regarded as only a personal property of exruler until recently when it was taken over by the State Government and transformed in to the State Legislative Assembly. This Commencing edifice stand erect as a pretty feat of modern architecture that once had a grandeur of its own." KUNJABAN PALACE: "A picturesque hillock known as Kunjaban for its scenic beauty stands to the north of Agartala town and within a mile from the Royal Palace (Ujjayanta Palace) with tracts of some were law-lying hillocks. Though nut far away yet being a place came to be regarded as ideal for relaxation and pleasure strolls in the past for its green beauty, green gardens, orchard and a small zoo. It many be interesting to add that Rabindranath Tagore stayed in the eastern apartment of this palace during his seventh and last visit in 1926. Around varandh attached to this eastern part, named as Gol Varandah was the most favourite place for its distant view of Baramura Hills on the eastern horizon. This varandah had been the mute witness of many a dear moment when the poet composed a number of popular songs which were in COT­ porated in Vaikali series, or remained obsorted in silence. This palace has been taken over by the Govenuncnt of Tripura and is being used as the official residence of the Governor-Raj Bhavan." MALANCHABAS : "The bunglow adjacent to the Kunjaban Palace was originally a Kutcha house where also the Poet stayed during his previous visit in 1919. The Puce a building which still assumes the name Malanchabas, was subse­ quently built. Among other places of visit at Agartala, mention may be made of Moharaja Bir Bikram College campus which appears to have been garlanded by a number of lakes, the Government Museum where many old archiaeo- 25 logical findings in Tripura have been placed, the Budd ha Temple, Uma Maheswari Temple, Handloom and Handicrafts corporation etc." Jagannath Temple, "Jagannath Temple at Agartala, though a structure of late 19th century, is attractive both to devotees of Lord Jagannath and also to the visitors for its peculiar structure, being octagonal at the base­ ment and having a nice Pradakshinapatha round the sanctum. Every pillar of the octagon is crowned by a square pyramidal cone rising above a multifoil niche which comes at the level of the terrace.'" OLD AGARTALA: "Puran Agartala or puran Haveli as it is called, has been the capital of Tripura since the time of Maharaja Krishna Manikya who had shifted the capital from Udaiipur to old Agartala on, th,e bank10f Howra in the face of his continued fight with Sansher Gazi who had attacked Udaipur in 1784. It c~mt,ip.u¢ to pe the capital of Rajas till it was shifted to the present site a few {niles off old Agartala by Maharaja Krishna Manikya, who ascened the throne in 1830. Old Agartala is still visited by a good number of Pilgrims every year on the occassion of Kharchi Puja in the month of Ashara (July) at the temple of Chaturdas Devata which ,was built there when the 14 deities were removed from Udaipur. Though originally a tribal festival, all classes of devotees both tribals and non-tribals participate in the worship of fourteen gods, popularly known as Kharchi Puja. The temple is situated at a dis­ tance of mile from Agartala town." RUDRASAGAR AND NIRMAHAL. "Rudrasagar is deep and extensive lake situated about 53 km from Agartala and about 8 km from Sonamura town. The scenic beauty of the lake was so attraction that Bir Bikram'Kishore (1927-]94'1) the late Maharaja of Tripura built a spectacular edifice on an island in the Centre of the lake and named it Nirmahal or palace in the water. The palace was provided with electricity and had a small well-laid garden at the courtyard. Nirmahal is no doubt one of the fin("st beauty spots in Tripura and though new stand in a dilapidated condition and stripped of its past glory, still it casts its spell oil the mind of the people who visit this palace on a moonlit night. The lake itself very beautiful afford good, sports for rowing and rears a good stock of delicious fishes.'" . SHIPAHIJALA: It is situated almost at a distance of 20 kms south from Agartalil town. It:s really a ,green heaven in the earth-away from the work of near shattering noise and speed. R6und the place a natural lake runs where half a dozen of Paddle boats awaiting tourists steps at the landing, A dense forest all around gives pleasure to the eyes. It has been decorated with a dear park W!lere deer move here and there. A mini zoological garden with pythons and peacocks is a great attraction to the tourists. The wooden bunglow with a beautiful view is a great attraction to the visitors for rest house. CHAPTER

BRIEF ANALYSIS OF THE VILLAGE AND TOWN nIRECJ:'ORY AND DISTRICT CENSUS HAND­ BOOK DATA BASED ON INSET TABLE (ANNEXE-III)

This ch,apter is intended to contain the analysis of inset tables prepared on the basis of the main tables included in the next chapter of 'Section-I Village Directory and Section-II Town Directory as well as Part-B Primary Census Abstract. It may be reiterated here that while 1971 Census wass conducted with the lowest unit in census villages consti­ tuted of small villages/paras without having any definite boundary the census taking in 1981 was coducted taking the .cadastrally surveyed revenue villages with well defined boundary as the lowest unit. Accordingly, the data in, the Village Directory have been presented revenue village-wise. An alphabetical list of villages with location code number against each is given at the bebinning of the Chapter containing the Village Directory. This faci­ litates the readers to detect the village(s) from the alphabetical list for which the particulars are required and then find out the necessary particulars of that villages from the Village Directory with less difficulty. The information and data relating to Village Directory and Town Directory have been collected through the revenue agency like Tehsilder at the micro-level with authentication by the Sub-divisional officers concerned. The procedure of collection of data through the revenue agency was actually decided on the advice of the State Government. The consensus of opinion was that it would be better to collect the informations relating to Village Directory and Town Directory through the Tehsilder concerned who happened to be the lowest unit of the revenue administration and thus having a fair knowledge abuut the areas population and amenities etc. in the villages of the Tehsi!. These Tehsilders were considered to be of best help in respect of collection of infonnations regard­ ing the landuse pattern as the land records are maintained with them. The information as collected through the revenue administration of the Sub-division endorsed by the Sub-divisional Officer concerned have been compiled first in the prescribed proforma in the four appendices to the Village Directory and then inset tables compiled on the basis of the information contained in the appendices. 27

In this chapter, the inset tables prepared on the basis of the statement included in the Village and Town Directory are analysed hereinafter.

Table-I Population, number of Village & Town, 1981. The statement gives the distribution of population by total, rural and urban for the whole district as well as for the three Sub-divisions under the district separately showing further break-up upto the development block area level and town area level incorporating the total number of villages under each development block: There are 281 villages in this district of which three have been found unhabited while there are habitations in the remaining 278 villages. The number of towns in the district stands at three namely Agartala Town in Sadar Sub­ division, Khowai Town in Khowai Sub-division and Sonamura Town in Sonamura Sub-division. In 1971 Census, the number of notional villages in the district was 2454 but as mentioned earlier these were small villa$es/paras known by their local names subsequently adjusted during the cadastral survey within the pr~sent 281 villages of the district. In respect of urban areas it may be stated that while there werc two towns in the district in 1971 census in Sadar and Khowai, the sub-divisional town of Sonamura has been included as the other two towns in the district in census 1981 for the first time. Out of the three towns, according to population size class, Agartala was the oldest one which was the only town in the state upto 1951 and it is at present class-I Municipal town while Khowai comes under category class IVand Sonamura belonging to the CIass-V town with a meagre population of 6380 only. Out of the total population of 976,252 of the district 826,924 live in rural areas which constitute 84.71 % of the total population of the district and 149,288 live in urban areas which constitute 1~.29 % of the total population. The district possesses 47.55 % of the total population of the state. In terms of population, Sadar Sub-division occupies the highetst position with 630,958 persons constituting 64.63 % of the total population of the district out of which 498,772 live in rural areas sharing the percentage of 79.05 % of the total popUlation of the sub-division whereas the urban population of the sub-division stands at 132,186 constituting 20.95 % of the total population of the sub-division. J n terms of population, Khowai comes next with 211,868 having urban share of 10,722 constituting 5.06 % of the total population and rural population of 201146 constituting 94.94 % of the total population of the sub-dvision, Sonamura sub-division occupies the lowest position in terms of population with a population 133,426 with rural share of 127,046 constituting 95.22 % of total population and urban share of 6,380 which constitutes of the 4.78 % of the total population of this sub-division. The statement reveals that out of the total population of 976,252 in the distric\ 499,605 are males and 476,647 are females. The sex ratio (number of females per one thousand males) stands at 954 as against the State average of 946. The total area of the district is 3033 sq. km. out of the total area of 10,486 sq. km. for the state and thus in term of area, the district constitutes 28.92 % of the State. It is the smallest district in 'terms of area. On the other hand, the total population of the district stands at 976,252 as against the total population of the state of 20,53,058 and thus constitutes 47.55 %. The density of population for the district at 322 persons per sq. km. is much, more than the state aggregate of 196 which is apparant also from the area popUlation ratio shown above. In terms of density of popu­ lation the district shows the highest figure among the districts of the State. n is mentioned here that the only C. D. Block, namely Bishalgarh in Sadar Sub-division comes the'largest number of villages as well as the highest population among all the other C.D. Block in the district. As well as in the State C. D.

Table : 2 Decadal change in distribution of population. The statement presents the data relating to the changes in population between the two censuses of 1971 & 1981 in absolute figures as well as in terms of percentage. The figures are presented at development block level and then commuted to sub-divisional level and ultimately for the whole district. It may be mentioned here tliat the figures for development block level for 1971 census are not available due to the fact that the census data of 1971 were tabu­ lated at the census village (Notional village) level and then at sub-divisional level without having' any intermediate unit like Development Block area and as such the decadal variation at Development Block level can not be ascer­ tained. The percentages decadal variation in the west Tripura District during the decade stands ut 29.89 % which is less than the state average of 31.92 % Among the three sub-divisions of the district, the percentage decadal variation is highest to the tune of 33.49 % in Sadar sub-division which is having the highest population of the three sub-divisions whereas the percentage decadal variation was lowest to the tune of 19.03% in Khowai sub-division during the decade 1971-81.' The percentage decadal variation in urban population stands at 36,21 ?;.; in rural population.

This table presents the distribution of litaracy rate in the villages of different ranges of population, precisely the distribution of over all literacy rate of 41.07 as obtained in the rural popUlation of the district among the groups of villag~s coming under the different ranges of population. The highest literacy rate of 55.25 appears to have been obtained in 8 VIllages under the range of population of 10,000. The next higher literacy rate of 45.08 has been obtained in 34 villages under population range of 5000-9999. The lowest literacy rate of l3.22 is found in 8 villages coming under the population range of below 200 while the 2nd lowest of 15.79 is found in 14 villages under range of population of 200- 499. The highest number of villages of 106 fall under the range of population of 500-1999 attained a literacy rate of 30.47 ~nd 38.75 respectively which are also less than the district average. It may, therefore, be concluded that literacy rate hIgher than the district average prevails in tbe bigger villages in the range of population of 5000-9999 and 10,000+ further ~oes to show that the educational amenitiol1 reached the bigger villages to a greater extent, while it has lesser Impact IS the smaller one. ! 33

The high literacy rate in urban areas seems to an usual feature throughout of the whole State which will be evident from the high literacy rate of 73.66 % in urban areas taking the State as a whole. Among the three towns the highest literacy rate of 75.91 % is registered in Agartala town, next comes Khowai town with 68.77 % and the lowest of 59.67 in Sonamura town. The high trend of literacy rate in urban areas signifies that the educational amenities have reached the urban population to a greater extent but the rural areas still deserve better and concentrated effort for development. 34

Table-IO : Literate, workers, non-workers. SC. & ST. population in the West Trlpura District. This is an elaborate table giving the percentage of literates, workers, non-workers, SC/ST population to the total popUlation for all the Development Block areas and towns separately under the four sub-divisions and then for the district as a whole. Out of the total population of 976,252 of the district Sadar sub-division shares the highest of 630,958. Khowai comes second with a population of 211,868 and Sonamura is the lowest with 133,426. In Sadar sub-division, out of the two Development Blocks, Bishalgarh Development Block is having the maximum population of 249,435 above Jirania Development Block with the population of 114,135 and Mohanpur Development Block with the popUlation of 135,202. The popUlation of Bishalgarh Development Block 135,202 is the highest amongst all the 6 Development Blocks of the district as well as 17 Development Blocks with Teliamura and Khowai Development Blocks of Khowai Sub-Divisions depict 126,596 and 74,550 respectively and Melagarh Development Blocks depicts isolately in Sonamura Sub-Division with population of 127,046. The percentage of SC population to the total population of the district as a whole is 16.94 which is more than the state average of 15.12 %. The notable feature is that most of the SC population resides in rural areas. Out of three sub-divisions, the per;::entage of SC population t6 total population is the highest at 22.33 in Sonamura sub-division which is higher than the district average as well as the State average, Khowai comes next with 17.24 % and the lowest of 15.69 % is registered in Sadar Sub-Division are all above the state average.

Among the D~velopment Blocks Melagarh which comprises the whole rural area of Sonamura Sub-Ddivision is having the highest percentage of 22.74%. This percentage in lowest in Jirania Development Block at 13.15 in Sad:tr sub-division. The percentage of SC population in Teliamura, Mohanpur and Bishalgarh Development Blocks are 20.47, 21.00 and 18.09 respectively next to Melagarh, Khowai Development Blocks shows 13.32 very near to the lowest of Jirania. Out of the total urban population of the district. the SC population constitutes 8.08 only which gives a picture to settle the SC population in urban area. The highest SC population in town is in Sonamura town at 13.98 % Agartala tONn and Kftowai town having 7.94 % and 6.34 % SC population to total popUlation respectively.

Th~ percentage of ST popUlation to the total population of the district as a whole is 2501 which is below than the state average 28.44. Here also the maximum population resides in rural areas constituting 28.73 % of the total rural population of the district while the same percentage in regard to urban areas is very low at 4.417. The pre­ ference of the ST. popUlation to reside in the rural areas is quite evident. Ampng the three sub-divisions Khowai shares the highest percentage of 38.68 % to its total popUlation while Sadar ranks next with 23.32 and Sonamura is lagging behind with 11.29 %. Out of the six Development Blocks, the highest percentage of ST population Qf 42.60 to the total population is registered in Jirania Block area. This percentage is also very high at 41.69 in Khowa i Deve,lopment Block area. Teliamura and Mohanpur also record percentages of 39.95 and 27.26 respectively higher than the state average. The percentage in Bishalgarh is 22.27 and Melagarh is 11.71 and these are below the state average. The percentage of literates to total popUlation have further been shown separately for males and females.

Th~ literacy rate of the district as a whole is 46.21 which is higher than the state average of 42.12 %. The literacy rate in m11c population is higher at 56.15 compared to 35.80 for female population. The literacy rate of the district a" a Whole is more brightened by the high percentage of 74.71 attained in urban areas whereas the literacy percentage is considerable low at 41.07 in respect of overwhelming rural popUlation. The percentage of male lite­ rates in the urban areas is very high at 81.06 and the females of urban areas are not also lagging behind with 68.13. Among the sub-divisions, the literacy rate of SadiJr sub-division is 49.75 the highest with Khowai sub-division coming next with 41.71 % then the lowest Sonamura sub-division with 35.01 %. Both in Male and Female literacy the same trend that the highest percentage is shown by Sadar and then Khowai and the lowest percentage is shown by Sonamura sub-division. In Sadar percentages of Male and Female literacy are 59.60 and 39.42 in Khowai Male 52.76% and Female 32.21 % and in Sonamura Male is 45.16 and 24.39%. Among the Development Blocks Bishalgarh shows the highest percentage note in male literacy 54.83 and female 32.63 % followed by Jirania Males 53.80 % and female 30.61 % lowest literacy rate is exhibited by Melagarh 33.78 % in males 44.00 and females 23.10 %. ~n between them the Development Blocks Khowai (41.52%) in male 51.09% and female 31.58. Teliamura (41.21 %) 111 male 51.40 and female 29.97 and Mahanpur (40.95%) in male 51.41 % and female. 29.76%.

. . In the town areas, the literacy rate has maintained a high position keeping in conformity with the trend of the dlstnct and state. Agartala town is the highest among the three towns with 75.91 % and Sonamura is the lowest 59.67 ~~. In urban population also, the trend of higher literacy in male popUlation than that of female population is maintained. The table given another important data regarding workers, marginal workers and non-workers in the different areas. 37

Only 28.74% of the total population have been found to be main workers. The low percentage of main workers in female population of 9.06 % has impaired the overall percentage though the percentage of main workers in male population is better at 47.52 %. The percentage of main workers in male as well as female in the district is a bit higher than the state average of 49.23 % and 8.95 %. The urban areas are found to have lesser percentage of 27.15 % of main workers which is much less compared to the state and district average. Among the three sub-divisional percentatge of main workers is highest in Khowai sub-division at 30.72 %: Agartala and Somamura are very near with 28.34% and 27.51. The percentage in rural and urban areas and then in male and female population among these sub-divisions has also a small variation between them alike the sub-division percentage. As stated in the earlier chapter of concepts of definition in 1981 census a new class of workers namely marginal workers has been noted which group consists of persons who worked even for a single day and not exceed­ ing 183 days in the year proceeding to the reference data of the census i.e. 28-2-81. This category of marginal workers however, constitutes a very low percentage of 2.63~;'; for the whole state and it is further lower at 2140 % in West Tripura District. The inclusion of these marginal workers has somewhat brightened the percentage of the total workers to total population though to a very nominal extent. In .this category of marginal workers the percentage ranges from 3.82 % in Khowai sub-division to 1.91 in sadar sub-division while Sonamura in between then of 2.42 %. The variation in the percentage occuring among the sub-divisions as well as the Development Blocks areas is very nominal while it is noteworthy that the percentage of marginal workers is highest in Khowai Development Block with 5.46% with the lowest in 2.11 in Mohanpur Block area. In analysing the position in respect of the male and female population separately it is apparent that the percentage of marginal workers in male population is very less ranging from 2.18 % to 0.93 % only, while the female population register, a better percentage in some places. The percentage of female marginal workers is the highest at 9.49 again in Khowai Development Block while the lowest is 0.43 in Bishalgarh Development Block area.

It seems to be an usual feature that the percentage of marginal workers to total popUlation is very low in the town areas. The total workers comprises of main workers and marginal workers together. The addition of the mar­ ginal workers with the main workers has rendered the District percentage of tQtal workers a bit brighter to 31.14~;'; with 31. 72 % in the rural areas and 27.89 % for the urba!} areas. The percentage as obtained in total workers sex wise have also been similarly improved a bit but the characteristics of the distribution in the sub-division rural and urban and in the male and female population as indicated and discussed in the earlier para have retained. The non-workers, who are the remaining population after identifying main and marginal workers, naturally constitutes the major percentage of the population due to the low percenatage of workers: T,hese data do not await further explanation or elucidation as the position in regard to main workers and marginal workers have already reflected the extent oftlre non­ working population.

This table presents data regarding the number of villages alongwith its perc.entages to the total number of villages ~avi~g one or more of amenities on education, medical, drinking water, post and telegrap,h, market/hat, commulllcatron, approach by pucca road aud power supply. The figures are presented for each development block area separately and the North Tripura District as a whole. It is seem from the above table that the position in regard to educational amenities is quite good for the district as a whole as 258 villages, out of 278 villages of the district, have got educational amenities i.e. 92.8·1 % of the total inhabited villages possess the educational facilities in one from the other out of the six Development 'Blokcs area in the district. Mohanpur and Bishalgarh in Sadar Sub-Division, Khowai and Teliamura in Khowai sub-division have a high coverage in respect of educational amenities i.e. 92.31 %, 96:92 %,94.18 %, 95.35 % respectively. ' In most of the village shows that under these four development blocks have got the educational amenities, Jirania and. Melagarh just lagging behind with coverage 85.71 % and 88.71 % respectively. In respect of the medical facilities, it is seen that only 87 villages constituting 31.29 % of the total :278 vl11ages in the district possess medical amenities within the villages. v' ohanpur Block area with coverage of 19 villages out of the 39 villages 42. 72 ~{ stands highest with Bishalgarh coming next with 26 villages out of the 65 xillages cOY-ered constituting 40.00~~. The lowest in regard to medicai amenities in the district is lirimia area with only 8 villag es having medical amenities cov~ring 18.60% of the total 35 villages in ,the areas. t~e overall position of coverage requires extreme attention of the planners. ' I

In regard to dirnking water, it is found that all the villages in the district are havil1g one or the ~her source of drinking water and hence the coverage of 100 %. It may be pertinent to note here that the.sources ofldri king water as defined in village Directory format include tank, river, nala and chharas also. It is a common 'eip rience that the revenue villages which comprises big areas, require drinking water facilities in the hamlets within the. area which also could not arranged as yet and as such, the drinking water ,resources in those villages are still.lnadequate. So there may not be any scope of being complacement at the highest degree of coverage, which has been arrived at on the basis of the census definition of water resources as villages or part of the villages ·served with drinkihg water from tank, river, nala and chhara etc. cannot be termed to be having drinking water facilities to the spiri~ of the term as the water available from river, nala and chhara is unhygienic and such villages or part of the villages or tpart of the villages certain require intensive attention for arranging better drinking water facilities. The fost & telegraph facilities could be reached in 151 villages in the district covering 54.32 % of the total villages. The highest percentage of coverage is in Mohanpur Block area tuning to 69.23 % and the lowest being at 41.86 with 18 villages out of 43 villages in Teliamura Block area. Post & telegraph facilities include the extra~ departmental branch offices in tne villages which do not always render all the Postal amenities for which they are to go to other villages. The overall position in this regard requires improvement to offer better postal facilities~ In respect of market/hat within the villages, the highest percentage of coverage is found in Bishalgarh Block are a while Jirania Block area registers the lowest. It is however, an usual factor in Tripura that the market/hat are situated in village centrally located and not in every village. 106 villages, out of the total 278 villages of the district are having one or the other types of the communication facilities reaching the village which constitutes a coverage of 38.13 ~~. It is found that the best communication facilities are afforded to the villages of Mohanpur Block area with 21 villages constituting 53.85 ~~ Sf the total villages while the lowest is in Jirania area with amenity of communication reaching to 9 villages out of the 35 villages of the area 25.71 %. The only mode of public transport in the district comprises of only Bus and Taxi or Jeep as therelis no other mode of transport available within the district. I Regarding approach by pucca road, 87 villages comprising 31.29 % of the total 278 villages in the district have pucca road as approach. The highest percentage of 66.67 ~~ being in Mohanpur area while lowest in *elagarh at 12.90 ~~. The data in this regard show that most of the villages in the district could not be made approachable by pucca road as yet. In respect of power supply the coverage is meagre at 96 village out of the 278 villages in the distrjct ¢onstituting only 34.53 % of the total villages. The highest coverage is found in Mohanpur Block area with 20 ~illa'ges having power supply out of the 3~ villages with t~e percentage of 51.28 % while the lowe~t is i~ Knowai ~lo~k is only 11.76% i.e. out of34 VIllages only 4 VIllages have got power supply. For adoptIOn of Improved sCIentlfic agrI­ culture and irrigation measures in the rural areas, the essentiality of po~~r .supply in rural areas have already bee~ attached with priority by the planners of the country as a whole and, the dIstrIct, therefore, deserves tpe best conSI- deration for extending power supply amenities to cover more are~s without any delay. . 40

Table-12: Proportion ofrural population served by different amenities.

This table presents the proportion of rural population served by the different amerutles showing population and proportion for each Development Block area separately and for the district as a whole. The highest percentage of coverage is as high as 100 % in respect of drinking water facilities, the reasons for which has been discusssed already in connection with the earlier table. The coverage is very high at 99.07 in respect of educational amenjties. In ,all the six plocks of this district attained a good percentage of coverage in respect of educational amenities. Next coverage is registered in respect of Post & telegraph facilities with 66.44 % ""ith the highest in Teliamura area at 79.28 % and lowest in Mobanpur area at 33.80 %. In respect of communication Mohanpur occupies the best position with 73.65 % of coverage while Jirania is lowest with 46.06 %. The district average is 52.81 % in regards to communication facilities. 82.53 % of the total population comes under the coverage of amenities of approach by pucca road in Mohanpur area which is the highest among the Development Blocks while the average of the district is 55.51 %. The lowest coverage is in Melagarh Development Block area with a percentage of 23.53 %. In respect of power supply 57.31 % of the total population of the 4istrict has been covered, tre highest coverage of 77 .04 ~~ being in Mohanpur area. It requires mention here that the overall position of proportion of coverage in terms of population in brighter than those reflected in the earlier statement in terms of number of villages which goes to indicate that the villages with bigger population have received the amenities in a better way while the less populated villages are still wanting. .

The features mention-worthy are that 190 villages, out of the total 278 mhabIted villages, do not as yet possess medical facilities whithin the village though 83 of these villages are having the amenity available within a distance range 0-5 kms. 71 of them having the same within the distance range of 5-10 kms. but 36 villages are to avail the amenities situated at a distance of 70 kms and above. That the educational amenities have reached the villages to a' considerable extent is evident from the fact that only 2~ y~llages are not having educational institutions of any type within the village while out of those, 12 are having the facIlIties available at a distance range of 0-5 kms. 9 villages pOssess .the nearest educational institution at a distance of 5 kms and above which villages really deserve immediate consideration for extention of this facility to the village. 42

Table-14 Distribution of villages according to the distance frem tte nearest tcwn and availability of different amenities.

The data given in the statement reflects a peculiar feature that thOllgh the villages within the distance range of 0-5 kms fr?m the nearest town p~ssesses ~etter pe_rcenta!?e in respect of amenities in ~ener~J, the coverage under m.edical amenities 1ll terms of percentage IS better lD the bigger distance ranges from the town. It IS true that the remote villages might attract better attention of the 'planners with a reasonable presumption tbat the villages nearer to urban areas may very well the better amenities situated in the near by town areas, while it remains still remote to tlle remote village. 44

Table-IS : Distribution of village according to population range and amenities available. The data in the table reflect the number of villages in different ranges of population extended with the one or other amenities in terms of percentage. Generally speaking the coverage in terms of percentage in relation to villages in the population range of 5000 and above is better in all cases. Though for the other three groups of popUlation range the coverage in terms of percentage is having a steady increasing trend with the i?creasing population range, yet the smaller villages falling within the popu­ lation range of 499 and 500-1999 have received the lower percentage of coverage in relation to all the amenities except in drinking water facilities these feature clearly indicate treat the villages in the lowest population range are mainly in remote areas.

NOTES EXPLAINING THE CODES USED IN' nIE VILLAGE DlRECfORY

The main purpose of the Village Directory is to indicate the available important facilities like education, medical, drinking water supply, communication and electricity supply in each village. These were first collected at the 1961 Census and were presented by abbrevaited letters under fiye columns along with the Primary Census Abstract. In 1971 Census, it was decided to present such particulars in greater details in the Village Directory and to .give the Primary Census Abstract separately. Besides presenting the data on basic amenities, tqe particulars about the staple food commonly used by the majority of the people, particulars of land utilis~tion, the name and distance of nearest town, the market/hat, historical, religious, tourist importance, if any, were collected. In 1981 Census, data regarding total population and numher of households have been included and amenities of communication have been further elucidated by giving in formation about communication and approach to village separately in two columns. In the Village Directory, the revenue village is taken as the lowest unit for presentation of data. The villages are arranged in the ascending order of location code numper assigned to the villages. An alphabetical list of villages with location code number is given at the begining of the Village Directory of each Development Block which enable the readers to find out the required village from alphabetical list and then to obtain the necessary particulars from the Village Directory. The village Directory is broadly divided into four broad section viz., (i) location particulars including the area and population; (ii) basic amenities like medical, education, power supply, staple food etc. ; (iii) land utilisation; and (iv) distance from nearest town and the importance of the village as a religious or tourist centr~.
