FOREWORD The bringing out of the District Census Handbooks is one of the various ways in which the State Govern­ ment collaborates with the Government of India in the work of census-taking and the dissemination of the resulting information. While the various census publications give a lot of diverse and detailed information for the bigger units of administration i.e. state, district, tebsil and town, it is left to these District Census Handbooks to present some vital data for the stUllower units i.e. "ards and blocks in towns and villages in tehsils. Secondly, these handbooks present some non-census data also which is collected and processed in addition to the normal census operations. The present series of District Census Handbook volumes combine parts A and B of the handbooks for each district. Part C, consisting of some other census tables at tehsil and town level as well as some other data, will appear in the form of a separate series. I am gratified to note that Shri V. S. Verma, Director Census Operations, Rajasthan and his colleagues have endeavoured to bring out these exhaustive and inf"rmahve volumes with precision and promptitude. I am happy to learn that the maps being included in the various district volumes are also to be published later on in the form of a comprehensive Administrative Atlas of the state. I am sure, these publications will be found useful and interesting by scholars and admmistrators as well as the lay reader. Jaipur S. L. KHURANA 2nd, ~ber, 1972 Chief Sec1Itary to the Go'ernment of RDjQJlhan PREFACE Tbe District Census Handbooks are a special and important feature of tbe wbole scbeme of CeDSUS data collection and the analysis and presentation tbereof. The regular Censul publications do, of coune, present a multitudinous information but tbey do not go upto tbe Village and Census Block levels. for the rural and urban areas respectively. Secondly, they bave to depend on the data coUccted only as a part of tbe House­ listing and Enumeration Operations. Tbe twofold purpose of the Di!ltrict Census Handbooks, like tbat of certain otber special and ancillary studies that tbe Department undertakes, therefore, is to go down to these lower units of presentation and to present some data whicb is collected in addition to tbat produced by the above mentioned operations. The District Handbook series were first introduced in the 1951 Censuli. Wbile tbe 1961 series were an improvement over tbeir counterparts in 1951, the present series for tbe 1971 Census are more elaborate and have been so planned tbat they present all tbe essential Census data and important demographic details alongwitb sucb necessary orientation and background whicb -is very relevant for the proper understanding of a district. 1971 Census envisages the publication of District Census Handbooks in three parts viz. A, Band C for all the districts of Rajasthan. The first two of these are being presented In this series of volumes, eacb volume dealing witb one district of the State, because these two parts have mucb in common and they present infor­ mation wbich the reader might like to interlink at various stages in his study. Part C, containing both tbe data collected from the various dapartments of the State Government as well as certain Census tables, districtwise and down to the level of tehsils, will appear as a separate series of volumes, again, one for eacb district. Parts A & B have been explained in detail in the respective introductions pertaining thereto. For the sake of convenience and better presentability tbis volume has been divided into three sections, viz. Town and Village Directories, Primary Census Abstract and certain commo~ appendices and maps. A look at the Contents will further elucidate this arrangement. This Department has produced these District Census Handbooks for and on behalf of the Government of Rajasthan. We are grateful to the unfailing assistance and encouragement which we have received at each stage from the Chief Secretary, Sbri S. L. Khurana, and the Deputy Secretary in the General Administration Department Sbri D. R. Mehta. The ex-Chief Secretary Sbri Z. S. Jbala and tbe ex-Deputy Secretary Sbri Yatindra Singh also gave us valuable advice and support during the earlier stages of this work. We are also grateful to Shri Khurana for having consented to write a Foreword for this series of volumes.
