BOVE s.ooo POI>U.. ...TlON • PREFACE Districtwise village statistics have been published 1 at most of the Censuses. A ligt showing the population of villages in each district was published after the 1891 Census. No such list was brought out in 1901. In 1911 'Tillage Directories were prepared for all districts, but could be published only for thirteen on account of the outbreak of the First World War. At the 1921 Census they were published for all districts in the form of District Census Statistics. In 1931 they were compiled for all districts, but were not published owing to financial stringency, leading to loss of valuable data. A t the 1941 Census even though restricted tabulation was undertaken on account of the Second World War, yet the utility of District Census Statis tics was recognized and they were published. At the Census of 1951 two volumes were brought out for each district-the District Census Handbook and the District Population Statistics. Government have decided to continue the publication of District Census Handbook. The 1961 District Census Handbooks contain more data than ever published before. Village Directories, besides giving the population of villages by industrial categories, also contain useful information about schools, hospitals, post offices, etc. As revised DiStrict Gazetteers are going to be published, introductory matter'in the District Census Handbooks has been given in brief to avoid duplication. Information for the District Census Handbooks was collected mainly form three sources, viz., State Tabulation Office, District Officers, Heads of Departments and their district level officers. In all cases confirmation has been obtained from Heads of Departments concerned. I am extremely grateful to District Officers and the various Heads of Departmen ts for their wholehearted co-operation in furnishing the desired information. It is hoped that the District Census Handbook will pr.ve useful to the various Government departments and scholars. The printing of the Handbooks commenced from August, 1963. P. P.
