The Oensns Reports in olden times were printed one for the whole Province of RR.jputana and another for Ajmer Mmowara. Some of the Principal Stn.tes llO"\-,," lnerged in Raja.sthan published their own reports. This time the State Census Reports have been published in the following vo]umes;- 1. Part I-A Report. 2.

The ideo. of preparing the District Census HR.ndbook sepR.rately for each district was put forwa.rd by Shri R. A. G·opalaswalni, I. C. S., Registrar General, Inuia, and ex-Officio Census Commissioner of India, as part of a plan intended to secure an effective method of preserving the census records prepared for areas below the district level. He proposed that all the district census tables and census abstracts prepared during the process of sorting and cOlnpilation should hc bound together in a single D1.annscript volume" called the District Census Handbook, and suggested to the State Governments that tho handbook (with or without the addition of other useful information relating to the district) should be printed ana published, at their own cost, in' tbe same Dl::Lnner as the village statistics in the past. Tn accepting this suggestion, the Govemment of naj::t~than decided to print and publish the more important portion of statistical data roln,ting to the district and to preserve the rest of the }Oecords in a manuset'ipt '\'01U111e for any future use, to which they may be put. This Handbook contains five General Population'ra.bles of A Series, three Econoluic '.rabies of B Series, five Household and Age Tables of C Series, seven Social and Cultural Ta.bles of D Series, one table E giving HUlnmary for the district and teh~ils, a loeal table 'KA~ showing infirmities by age groups and an Index of Non-agricultur::tl Occupations. Each table contains an explanatory note necessary for the proper underst:l.nding of the figures. The numbers given to thf' tables in this IIallc1book corrcRpond to those given in Htate Census Reports. ·Village Directories were puhli::;hell fot· the first time in 1931 by a few States of Rajputana. The exalnple \Yas followed boy all the Stn.tes in 1 U-t-l. "l'hey contained for eacb villa.,ge the population figures by religion and also SOIne other useful inforrnation. They were bound in a volunte one for each State. t.rhis time the Village l)irectories arc also incorporated in this Handbook under the fla1ne of" Primary Census Abstract and Village Directory" which show the basic population figures separately for each village or town-ward classified by livelihood cIasRes instp.ad of religion and also S01l18 information of general nature. Opportunity has been taken to put ill a, short introductory note detailing the salient points eonnected with the district, sucb as the physical features, clilllatp, rn.infall, irri­ gation and drainage facilities, l'oads and other cOl1nnuuicatiol1s, agl"icnlturo, education, ~ndustries and other lnatters of general interest. '1'he informn.tion contained in the lntroductory note is based on the 11.1ateria.l furnished by Collectors of distl'jcts n.nd Depart- 111ents of Government. In adllition to thc above, SOlllC figlu"P~ of gntH'l"n.l iuterest a.nd a review of po)1ulatiou fi~ures have also been illcorporn.teJo Tilo H(:hndnled dn,te for the puhliC'fl,tiolJ of the rlandbooks A,R pn'>scl·j}lf~d by the RegiAtl"n.r General, India, WRoR, H Not In,tm" tban l\-lal"ch, 1 ~52 '" but practical cxpel'ience showed its publica.tion by that time an ilupl.·acticn.biJity. E,Ten the compilation of the tabh~R together with its final touch could not be completed by tha.t tilue, Then came the question of printing which proved to be a huge task. There are 25 districts in Rnjasthn.n ana 1 in Ajm_er. The total number of pl'inted pages turned out to he nearly 9000. The Government Presses were a.1r·eady over burdoned with the printing work of other depart­ rnentA and in the printing of census publications priority was given to Central Govern­ ment Pnb\ications i.e the Sta.te Census l:tepo1"ts. rrho result was that til] 1\f arch, ] 954, for 14 out of 21:) districts the P. C. A, and Village Directory could Dot be printed Flpecially bec~uge tho press bR.a. no stock of slu3.11 type which was essentiR.l for their printing. It was, therefore" decided to publish the handbooks in two vo'umeR.
