Data Product Number 30~01 0-2001 - Cen-Atlas . ·FOREWORD "Few people realize, much less appreciate, that apart from Survey of India and Geological Survey, the Census of India has been perhaps the largest single producer of maps of the Indian sub-continent" - this is an observation made by Dr. AstJok Mitra, an illustrious Census Commissioner of India in 1961. The statement sums up the contribution of Census Organisation which has been working in the field of mapping in the country. The Census Commissionarate of India ~as been working -in the .~~j~ld of cartography and mapping since 1872. A major shift was witness·ed- .durihg Census .196tA; when the office had got a permanent footing. For the first time, the census" ~aps~ . ~~~~~':p~~lis"ied in the form of 'Census Atlases' in the decade of 1961-71. Alongwith the national volume, the atlases of states and union territories were also published. With the passage of time and in each subsequent census, a number of other products such as DCHB, Town Directory, migration maps, regional division maps and others were added. During the Census 2001, GIS technology was introduced in Census Commissionarate and Census Directorates which has given a real boost in the field of mapping. Besides the regular publications, a number of new map products such as (i) India Administrative Atlas 1872-2001 - A Historical Perspective, (ii) Language Atlas of India, (iii) Housing Atlas of India, (iv) Scheduled Tribe Atlas of India and (v) Map Profile 2001 India, States and Union territories have been published. Some of the other products are in the pipeline. Administrative Atlas, 2001 of all the States and Union territories has been undertaken for preparation, looking to the demand of DCHB maps among the data users. In this publication, maps of the state, district and sub-district levels have been put together. For convenience of the data users, the publication has been made ready in two parts : Part-I is in regard to the maps . showing the evolution of- States/Union territories during the period 1872-2001 at decadal level. These maps exhibit the evolution of administrative boundaries in the respective State/Union territory through the entire time period. A brief analytical note has been added to explain the jurisdictional changes to each map. Besides, there are a few thematic maps at state level showing different themes. Few selected key population statistics at States/Union territories level have also been included. Part-II is more current. The first map highlights the changes observed in the administrative boundaries during 1991-2001 . This is followed by district and sub-district maps of the respective States/Union territories showing amenities and location code number in the sub-districts adopted during Census 2001 at village level. To read the location code numbers, the names of villages alongwith code numbers are given on the page facing each plate~ The gigantic task of the completion of this project was entrusted to Map Division of Census Commissionarate and respective Directorates under the supervision of Dr. R.F'. Singh, Ex-Deputy Registrar General (Map) and, now, Consultant (Map). Kum. Sarita, Research Officer (Map) has (iii) supervised this project.

My sincere thanks to all the officers and officials who have contributed and made it possible to bring out this publication. I hope that this will serve the needs 01 administrators, planners and scholars alike and fill up the gap of basic maps. O.K.
