The figures for India and Manipur, include by sex, the estimated population, 0-6 population and literates of Paomata, Mao Maram and Purul sub-divisions of Senapati district of Manipur for Census 2001 and 2011. 2. For working our density of India and the State of Jammu & Kashmir, the entire area and population of those portions of Jammu & Kashmir, the entire area and population of those portions of Jammu & Kashmir which are under illegal occupation of Pakistan and China have not been taken into account. 3. For Census 2011, the population of “Others” has been clubbed with the “Males” for working out population, 0-6 population, literates and related rates and ratios. 4. In working out ‘decadal variation’ and ‘percentage decadal variation’ for 1941-1951 & 1951-1961 of India and Nagaland State, the population of Tuensang District for 1951 (7,025) & the population of Tuensang (83,501) & Mon (50,774) districts for 1961 Census have not been taken into account as the area was censused for the first time in 1951 and the same are not comparable. 5. The 1981 Census could not be held owing to disturbed conditions prevailing in Assam. Hence the population figures for 1981 of Assam have been worked out by ‘Interpolation’. 6. The 1991 Census was not held in Jammu & Kashmir. Hence the population figures for 1991 of Jammu & Kashmir have been worked out by ‘Interpolation’. 7. The distribution of population of Pondicherry (Puducherry) by sex for 1901 (246,354) and 1931 (258,628) and 1941 (285,011) is not available. The figures of India for these years are, therefore, exclusive of these population figures so far as distribution by sex is concerned. 8. Arunachal Pradesh was censused for the first time in 1961. 9. In 1951, Tuensang was censused for the first time for 129.5 sq. kms. of areas only. In 1961 censused area of Tuensang District of Nagaland was increased to 5356.1 sq. kms. 10. Due to non-availability of census data the figures for the decades, from 1901 to 1951 have been estimated for the districts of Kohima, Phek, Wokha, Zunheboto and Mokokchung of Nagaland. Estimation however could not be done for Tuensang and Mon as they were not fully censused prior to 1961. 11. As the sex break-up for the districts. Sheopur, Morena, Bhind, Gwalior, Datia, Shivpuri, Guna, Ratlam, Ujjain, Shajapur, Dewas, Jhabua, Dhar, Indore, West Nimar (Khargone), Barwni, Rajgarh, Bhopal, Sehore and Raisen is not available for the year 1901. Figures for males and females have been estimated for the year 1901 for Madhya Pradesh. 12. One village Ramtapur (code No. 217 and 101 in 1951 and 1961 respectively) of Jukkal circle of Degulur taluka which was transferred under the state Reorganisation Act, 1956 from Maharashtra to Andhra Pradesh, still continues in Nanded district of Maharashtra. The population of this village has, however, been adjusted in Nizamabad district for the year 1901-1951. 13. The names of Uttaranchal and Pondicherry have changed to Uttarakhand and Puducherry respectively after Census 2011. 14. Literacy rates relate to the population aged seven years and above. Note of caution: The figures in this report being of a provisional nature, only the important footnotes have been given above. The detailed footnotes would be given when the final population tables are released. 2 RURAL-URBAN DISTRIBUTION CENSUS OF INDIA 2011 Provisional Population Totals Data on Rural & Urban Areas Figures at a Glance GUJARAT 2001 2011 No. of Districts 25 26 Percentage of No. of Sub‐Districts 226 225 Urban Population No. of Towns 242 348 No. of Statutory 168 195 2001 2011 No. of Census Towns 74 153 37.36 42.58 No. of Villages 18,539 18,225 Total Rural Urban Population Persons 60,383,628 34,670,817 25,712,811 Males 31,482,282 17,802,975 13,679,307 Females 28,901,346 16,867,842 12,033,504 DECADAL Absolute Percentage Population GROWTH 2001‐2011 Total Rural Urban Total Rural Urban Persons 9,712,611 2,930,050 6,782,561 19.17 9.23 35.83 Males 5,096,705 1,485,204 3,611,501 19.32 9.10 35.87 Females 4,615,906 1,444,846 3,171,060 19.01 9.37 35.78 SEX RATIO (females per 1000 males) 918 947 880 Population IN THE AGE GROUP Percentage to Total Absolute 0‐6 Population Total Rural Urban Total Rural Urban Persons 7,494,176 4,676,249 2,817,927 12.41 13.49 10.96 Males 3,974,286 2,452,807 1,521,479 12.62 13.78 11.12 Females 3,519,890 2,223,442 1,296,448 12.18 13.18 10.77 CHILD SEX RATIO (0‐6 years) 886 906 852 (females per 1000 males) LITERATES Absolute Literacy Rate Total Rural Urban Total Rural Urban Persons 41,948,677 21,896,928 20,051,749 79.31 73.00 87.58 Males 23,995,500 12,756,737 11,238,763 87.23 83.10 92.44 Females 17,953,177 9,140,191 8,812,986 70.73 62.41 82.08 PROVISIONAL POPULATION TOTALS – GUJARAT 3 Census of India 2011 Provisional Population Totals Population and Decadal Growth Rate by Residence – Persons Percentage Population Decadal Growth Code India/Gujarat/Districts 2011 (Persons) 2001‐2011 Total Rural Urban Total Rural Urban 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 INDIA 1,210,193,422 833,087,662 377,105,760 17.64 12.18 31.80 00 Gujarat (24) 60,383,628 34,670,817 25,712,811 19.17 9.23 35.83 01 Kachchh 2,090,313 1,364,472 725,841 32.03 23.11 52.84 02 Banas Kantha 3,116,045 2,702,668 413,377 24.43 21.26 50.05 03 Patan 1,342,746 1,061,713 281,033 13.53 12.44 17.87 04 Mahesana 2,027,727 1,513,656 514,071 9.91 5.62 24.86 05 Sabar Kantha 2,427,346 2,064,318 363,028 16.56 11.14 61.25 06 Gandhinagar 1,387,478 787,949 599,529 12.15 ‐6.92 53.48 07 Ahmadabad 7,208,200 1,149,436 6,058,764 22.31 ‐0.31 27.82 08 Surendranagar 1,755,873 1,258,880 496,993 15.89 13.14 23.49 09 Rajkot 3,799,770 1,591,188 2,208,582 19.87 3.05 35.84 10 Jamnagar 2,159,130 1,188,485 970,645 13.38 11.28 16.07 11 Porbandar 586,062 300,236 285,826 9.17 8.99 9.35 12 Junagadh 2,742,291 1,836,049 906,242 12.01 5.72 27.37 13 Amreli 1,513,614 1,127,808 385,806 8.59 4.33 23.28 14 Bhavnagar 2,877,961 1,697,808 1,180,153 16.53 10.64 26.21 15 Anand 2,090,276 1,456,483 633,793 12.57 7.98 24.77 16 Kheda 2,298,934 1,775,716 523,218 12.81 8.84 28.73 17 Panch Mahals 2,388,267 2,053,832 334,435 17.92 15.91 32.00 18 Dohad 2,126,558 1,935,463 191,095 29.95 30.76 22.24 19 Vadodara 4,157,568 2,097,791 2,059,777 14.16 5.12 25.12 20 Narmada 590,379 528,765 61,614 14.77 14.38 18.25 21 Bharuch 1,550,822 1,022,413 528,409 13.14 0.42 49.88 22 The Dangs 226,769 202,074 24,695 21.44 8.22 NA 23 Navsari 1,330,711 921,599 409,112 8.24 3.19 21.63 24 Valsad 1,703,068 1,068,993 634,075 20.74 3.85 66.35 25 Surat 6,079,231 1,235,509
