GLOS3AHY OF CAS'rE NAIVllid RE'fURNED AT TH~ CEI'4SUS O}t' 1951 IN THE DISrRICTS OF PEPSU -_FOREWORD----_ .... ---- ..... __.... At the Oensus of 1951 there was a limited enumeration and tabulation of castes. Under the limited enumeration caste was recorded as returned by the respondent. Several complications arose out of this procedure. Many persons who returned their caste by generic or synonymous Scheduled Caste or tribe names not found in the prescribed lists were left out of the count of Scheduled Castes and Tribes and are-count had to be later ordered in some states. The Backward Classes Commission could not be provided with the 1951 population of individual castes and tribes or their individua~ educational and economic characteristics. 2. If a complete enumeration of castes is ordered at the next census much preliminary study will have to be carried out in order to ensure correct and rational enumeration and tabulation. For that purpose and, in fact, for any systematic enumeration of castes, a glossary of caste names as returned at the 1951 Census would be invaluable. This explains the prepara~ion of t~is glossary. 3. The Glossary has been prepared by running through all the male slips relating to the non-backward classes and the five per cent sample male slips of Backward Classes and sh~uld, therefore, be a complete list of caste names. All caste names as found in the slips have been deliberately included in the Glossary without any attempt at rationalisation. Many of these names are synonymous; some relate to sub-castes or gotras; and some are only generic names. 4. For the Punjab population zone three State Glossaries have been prepared: (i) Punjab & PEPSU (ii) Himachal Pradesh, including Bilaspur and (iii) Delhi, besides glossaries for eacftb.q_t.:r~.;rJ.Qt._, -···-,,·····_··_n. ,_.. l ft· OfIic_e (l~,.u ...'. ~ ,; ; '..
