Area, houses and population

This table shows for each district in the State the area, number of towns and Villages, number of occupied houses and total urban and rural population, male· and female. On account of "The Provinces and States (Absorption of Enclaves) Order, 1950", the area figures of the Jabalpur and Nimar districts are affected due to transfer of certain villages to Vindhya Pradesh and Madhya Bharat and t'rce versa. · . · . · · 2. The area given in this table and that given in Table E (Summary Figures of Districts) differs in some cases because the figures given in this table were adopted from the district figures supplied by the Surveyor-General of India while the tahsil figures furnished by the Deputy Commis:-· sioners had to be adopted for Table E as the Surveyor-General of India was unable to supply these­ figures. 3.

Variation in population during fifty years

This table compares the population as ascertained at the Census of 1951 of each district in Madhya Pradesh as now constituted with that of five previous Censuses. Similar comparison is also made in respect of the natural divisions and sub-divisions into which the districts have been grouped according to the all-India plan. The administrative divisions of Madhya Pradesh were abolished under the "Central Provinces and Berar Commissioners (Construction of References) Act, 1948 (LXI of 1948)" which came into force from the 1st November 1948. · 2. The figures of the previous Census as shown in this _table differ from those shown in the previous Census Tables owing· to subsequent transfer of territory from one district to another within and without the State. The effect of these changes on the population of the districts concerned has been calculated and the figures adjusted accordingly. 3. The following are the districts and States for which transfer of territories has taken place·:- · Between 1891 and 1901.-Nagpur, Seoni, Hoshangabad, Nimar, Betul, Mandla and Balaghat. Between 1901 and 1911.-Sagar, Narsimhapur, Mandla, Balaghat, Hoshangabad, Nimar, · BetuJ, Chhindwara, Chanda, Durg, Raipur, Bilaspur, Amravati, Akola, Buldana and Yeotmal. Between 1911 and 1921.-Damoh, Seoni, Hoshangabad, Chhindwara, Wardha, Nagpur, BhandUa, · Balaghat, Raipur, Amravati, Akola, Buldana, Yeotmal and Kanker State. · Between 1921 and 1931.-Durg, Raipur, Amravati, Akola, Buldana and Chhuikhadan State•. Between 193 I and 1941.-Raipur, Bilaspur, Sagar, Damoh,' Hoshangabad, Narsimhapur, Chhind· wara and Seoni. As a result of transfer of 39 villages from the Nimar district to Madhya Bharat, between 1941 and I 951. the area of the district was reduced by 95 square miles. Similarly, on account of the transfer of II villages from the Jabalpur district to Vindhya Pradesh and 5 villages from Vindhya Pradesh into Madhya Pradesh, the area of the Jabalpur district was reduced by 5 square miles. As a result of the integration of the Chhatttsgarh and Bhopal Agencies States into· Madhya Pradesh, the states of Nandgaon, Khairagarh, Chhuikhadan and Kawardha were transferred to ~e Durg district resulting in the increase of the area of that district by 2,750 square miles. The Bhopal,Agency State of l\1akrai was transferred to the Hoshangabad district resulting in an addition of 150 square miles to the area of the district. The Bastar and Kanker States were formed into one district with an area of 15,091 square miles. Similarly, the States of Raigarh, Sarangarh, Sakti, Udaipur and Jashpur were formed into the Raigarh district with an area of 5,093 square miles. The Sw-guja, Korea and Changbhakar States were formed into the Surguja district with an area of 8,613 square miles • ..., 6 TABLE A-ll Variation in population during fifty years

Summary Figures by ~istricts and Tahsils

In this table area, percentage variation, density of population and distribution of the population by livelihood .classes are shown for all the districts and tahsils with the. corresponding· rural and urban break-up. '

2. The area figures adopted in this table are those supplied by th~ Deputy Commissioners because the Surveyor-General of India could not supply them for the tahsils. The figures supplied by the Deputy Commissioners have been rounded to the nearest integer. In Table A-1 (Area,- Houses and Popubtion), the area figures of the districts and the State, as supplied by the Surveyor-General, have been adopted. There is, therefore, difference in the area as given in the two tables.

3. On account of transfer of territory, etc., referred to in the flyleaf to Table A-I and A-II, the 3:J'~a of certain tahsils differs from that in the previous Censuses. In the Mandla district, Mawai Revenue Inspector Circle from the Dindori tahsil was transferred to the Mandla tahsil, resulting in th~ change in the area as well as population of the two tahsils.

4. The Density for 1941 (Col. I0) has heen calculated for the rural and urban tracts. on tne actual area as it existed in 1941. Similarly, the Density for 1951 (Col. 9) has been calculated for the rural and urban tracts on their actual area in 1951 i. e. after taking into account the area of the places declared as towns in 1951. The Density has been calculated on the actual area figures supplied by the Deputy Commissioners but not on the figures shown in Col. 2 of the table. · 5. In calculating the percentage variation in population, the actual adjusted population of rural and urban areas at each Census was adopted.
