Scheduled Castes Primary Census Abstract (Tahsil and Townwise) 350 (v) The District Censns Handbook (DCH), compiled by the census organisation on behalf of the state Governments, is one of the most valuable products of the census. The DCH is constantly referred to by planners, administrators, academicians and researchers. It is inter alia used for delimitation of con~tituencies, formulation of local level ana regional p!an~ and as an aid to District;ad.ministration. The Di~trict Cens-us Handbook is the only publication which provides primary cenSllS ab3tract (peA) data upto village level for the rural areas and watdwise fot each city ot town. It also provides data on infrastructure and amenities in village and towns, etc. The District Census Handbook series was initiated during the 1951 census. It contained important census tables and peA for each village and town of the district. During 1961 census the scope of the DCH was enlarged and it contajned a descriptive account of the district. administrative statistics. census tables and a village and town directory, including PCA. The 1971 DCH series was planned in three Parts-Part A related to village anrl. town directory, Part-B to village and town PCA and Part -C comprised analytical report, administrative statistic~. district census tables and certain analytical tables based on PCA and amenity data in re5pcct ofviUages. However, in some states it was confined to district census tables and in a f~w census altogether given up due to delay in compilation and printing. While designing the format of 1981 DCH series some new features along with the restructuring of the format of villag0 and town directory have been attempted. At the same time. comparability with the 1971 data ha~ also been kept in view. All {he amenities excepI power supply in the village have been brought together in the village dire<:tory with the instruction that in case an amenity is not available in the referent viHage the distanco in broad ranges from the neareslt place where The amenity is available may be given. The restructuring of the format of the village directory and incorporating more eKhaustive daCa on infrastructure aspect partkularly in relation to amenities and land us.e 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 as to mrnim.is:e the regional imbalances in the procesS: of development. A few new items. of in fur mat ion 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 workers. in the village have been introduced in the village 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 whicharcinacce!!sible. Anew column, "total popUlation and number of hQuseholds" has been introduced to examine the corrolation oflhe amenities with the popUlation and number ofhouseholds they serve. Addition of two more appendices Jisting the villages where no amenities arc available and according to the proportion of scheduled caste and scheduled tribe population to the total population has also been 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 few new items.
