This is the most valuable district level publi<:ation brought nut hy the Census Organisation on behalf of eaeh State Ciovt./Union Territory administration. It inter-ulia provides data/information on some of the basic demographic and socio-economic characteristics and on the availability of certain important civic amenities/facilities in each village and town of thl.: respective districts. This puhlieation has thus proved to bl.: of immense utility to the planners, administratllfs, acadl.:micians and re::.earchl.:rs. The scope of the DCB was initially conlined to certain important census tables on population, economic and socio-eultural aspl.:cts as also thl.: Primary Cen ..,lIs Abstract (PCA) of each villagc alltl town (ward-wise) of the district. The DClis puhlished aftl.:r thl.: I% I Cl.:nsus cnntained a lkscriptive account of the district, administrative statistics, census tahles and Village and Town Din:ctoril.:s including PCA. After the ]1)7) Census, tWI) pans of the District Cemus Handhooks (P;lrt-A comprising Village and Tllwn Directories and Part-B cllmpri::.ing Village and Town PCA) were rek;lsed in all thl.: States and Union Territories. The third part, Part C of the Distri<.:t Census )-LlIHlhllllks clllllprising administr;ltivl.: statistics and district census tahks, which was abo tll he hrllught llut. clluld nllt hI.: puhlishl.:d in many Statl:s/UTs due to considnable lleby in compilation of n:levant lllat(;l'iai. In I()X I. ~0I1l1.: nl.:w features alongwilh the restructuring of the formats of Villagl.: and Town Dirl.:l:tory were introdll<.:l:d in the DCHs. Thesl.: wl.:re published in two parts for I.:ach district artl.:r thl.: II)~I Cl.:nsus. Whik ParL-A Cllmprisl:d Village and Town Directories, the PCA of villages and towns (ward-wise) including Schnlukd Caste and Schl:duled Tribe PCA upto tchsil!town level were provilkd in Part-B. To illustratl:, all thl: aml.:nities l:xccpl electricity, were brought togethl.:r in the Villagl.: Directory and if an aml.:nity was not avaibhk in the r(;('l.:rent village. the distance in broad rangl.:s from tIl(; nearl:st place having sudl aml.:nity was given. Infllfmation un soml: new items sueh as adult litnal:Y cl.:nlrl.:s. primary hl.:alth :-ub-u:ntITs and ullllmunity hl.:alth workl:rs in the village werc provided so as to l11el:t somc of thl: rl:quilTlllcnts of the Rl.:vised Minimum Nl.:l.:ds Programme. Similarly, information on approach to the villagl.: was also pro\'ilkd I'm· thl.: lirst timl.: in thl: Village Directory so as to gi\'l.: an idea about thc number of inaccessible villages in each district. In eaSl: of Town Directories also, keeping in view the rl.:quiremenls or tl1l.: [\1inilllum Needs Programme, a Statl:ment IV-A on slums was provilled so as to enahk the pbnners tll chalk out the programmes for providing better civic and other alllenitil:s in the slulll:-. In this Slall.:lllL'lJI tletails on ei\'ic and olhl.:r ;tmenitil.:s W(;fe reported for the slums or Class I and Class II towns.

Nine-fold industrial c1assilication of main w(lrkl.:rs has bl.:Ul gi\'l.:n a~ again~t four-fold industrial classification presented in the III~) Census. In addition to this, the sl.:x-wisl.: popUlation in the 0-6 age-group has also been included in PCA for the lirsl timl.: with a view to I.:llabling data users to compute l110re realistic literacy rates as all children below 7 years of age haw been treated as illiterate at the time of the 1<)1)) Census. It is expectl:d. that the abovl.: mentioned Illodilications will help the planners in chalking out nHlrl.: cffl.:ctive devdopllll:ntal programmes.
