FOREWORD The DistrictCensus Handbook (DCHB) is an important publication of the Census Organization since 1951. It contains both Census and non Census data of urban and rural areas for each District.The Census data provide information on demographic and socio-economic characteristics of population at the lowest administrative unit i.e. of each Village and Town and ward of the District. The Primary Census Abstract (PCA) part of this publication containsCensus data including data on household amenities collected during 1st.phase of the Census i.e. House Listing and Housing Census. The non Census data presented in the DCHB is in the form of VillageDirectory and TownDirectory contain information on various infrastructure facilities available in the village and townviz; education, medical, drinking water, communication and transport, post and telegraph, electricity, banking, and other miscellaneous facilities. Lateron, the Telegraph Services were closed by the Government of India on 15th. July,2013.The data of DCHB are of considerable importance in the context of planning and development at the grass-root level. 2. In the 1961 Census, DCHB provided a descriptive account of the District, administrative statistics, Census tables and Village and TownDirectory including Primary Census Abstract. This pattern was changed in 1971 Census and the DCHB was published in three parts: Part-A related to Village and TownDirectory, Part-B to Village and Town PCA and Part-C comprised analytical report, administrative statistics, DistrictCensus tables and certain analytical tables based on PCA and amenity data in respect of Villages. The 1981 Census DCHB was published in two parts: Part-A contained Village and TownDirectory and Part-B the PCA of Village and Town including the SCs and STs PCA up to Tahsil/Town levels. New features along with restructuring of the formats of Village and TownDirectory were added. In VillageDirectory, all amenities except electricity were brought together and if any amenity was not available in the referent Village, the distance in broad ranges from the nearest place having such an amenity, was given. 3.The pattern of 1981 Census was followed by and large for the DCHB of 1991 Census except the format of PCA. It was restructured. Nine-fold industrial classification of main workers was given against the four-fold industrial classification presented in the 1981 Census. In addition, sex wise population in 0-6 age group was included in the PCA for the first time with a view to enable the data users to compile more realistic literacy rate as all children below 7 years of age had been treated as illiterate at the time of 1991 Census. One of the important innovations in the 1991 Census was the Community Development Block (CD Block) level presentation of VillageDirectory and PCA data instead of the traditional Tahsil/Taluk/PS level presentation. 4. As regards DCHB of 2001 Census, the scope of VillageDirectory was improved by including some other amenities like banking, recreational and cultural facilities, newspapers & magazines and `most important commodity manufactured in a Village in addition to prescribed facilities of earlier Censuses. In TownDirectory, the statement on Slums was modified and its coverage was enlarged by including details on all slums instead of notified slums. 5.The scopeand coverageof VillageDirectory of 2011 DCHB hasbeen widened by including a number of new amenities in addition to those of 2001. These newly

HISTORY AND SCOPE OF THE DISTRICT CENSUS HANDBOOK

The District Census Handbook was firstly introduced during the 1951 Census.It contains both census and non census data of urban as well as rural areas for each district. The census data contain several demographic and socio-economic characteristicsof the lowest administrative unit i.e. of each village and town and ward of the district. The non census data comprise of data on availability of various civic amenities and infrastructural facilities etc. at the town and village level which constitute Village Directory and Town Directory part of the DCHB. The data of DCHB are of considerable importance in the context of planning and development at grass-root level.

Brief History of the District

The Island of Mumbai passed from the Mohammedan kings of Gujarat

to the Portuguese on 23rd December 1534. More than a hundred years

Mumbai and its surrounding area was under the Portuguese rule. Later the

transfer of the Island from the Portuguese to the British crown was effected

on 18th February 1665 in accordance with the marriage treaty dated 23rd

June 1661. The remaining land is bounded by Vasai creek at the north,

Mahim creek at the south, Arabian sea at the west and Thane district at the

east which was later came to be known as Sashti (Salsette) was under the

control of Portuguese along with Goa. Sashti was under the Portuguese rule

up to 1737. During 1772-73 and onwards the British took control over this

area.

When Thane district was formed in the year 1817, the area known as

Sashti was included in Thane as a tahsil. In 1917 Bandra Mahal was

created separating 50 villages from this tahsil. In 1920 Salsette tahsil was

bifurcated to form two separate tahsils viz., North Salsette (Thane district)

and South Salsette (Mumbai Suburban district). The villages in south

Salsette were scattered from Bandra to Dahisar and Kurla to Mulund. In the

year 1920 Mumbai Suburban district created comprising the 84 villages of

south Salsette tahsil. Later some villages from Borivali tahsil of Thane

districts were transferred to Mumbai Suburban district and the south

Salsette tahsil was transformed into Andheri tahsil.

In the year 1962, Kurla and Andheri tahsils were created by relocating

some villages of Borivali and south Salsette tahsil. The present Mumbai

(Suburban) district has three tahsils viz., Borivali, Andheri and Kurla

consisting of 87 villages.

The independent post of collector of Mumbai Suburban district was

abolished and the collector of Mumbai city was given the additional charge

of Mumbai Suburban district in the year 1932. But later in the year 1958

due to the enormous work load, the revenue administration was handed

over to the newly created post of Additional Collector. Since 1990 the

Collector has been looking after the revenue administration as the Mumbai

(suburban) district which is upgraded as a full-fledged district.

The name Mumbai is derived from patron deity the Mother Goddess

Mumba Devi worshiped by the earliest inhabitants the kolis. Later the

Portuguese rechristened it as Bombay.

Administrative Set up

There were major changes in the administrative set up of Maharashtra immediately after the 1981 census resulting into increase of two divisions (Amravati and Nashik) and 4 districts (Latur, Jalna, Sindhudurg and Gadchiroli). After the 1991 Census, eventhough the number of divisions remained the same the number of districts increased from 30 in 1991 to 35 in 2001. For administrative reasons the populous Greater Bombay district of 1991 Census has been divided wide notification No.REN 2680/855/ CR-448/ M-10 Dt. 1.10.1990,into two districts viz., Mumbai and Mumbai (Suburban) districts, yet and uniquely the two districts are governed by a single municipal corporation viz., Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation. During the same period the name has also changed from Bombay to Mumbai. Similarly four more districts viz., Nandurbar, Washim, Hingoli and Gondiya have been formed bifurcating Dhule, Akola, Parbhani and Bhandara districts respectively after the 1991 Census. The Kokan division includes 6 districts, the Nashik division 5 districts, Pune division 5 districts, Aurangabad division 8 districts, Amravati division 5 districts and Nagpur division 6 districts. Thus in 2001 Census the state has 35 districts spread over 6 divisions.

The unit Greater Bombay came into existence in April 1950 with the merger of Bombay sub-urban with Bombay City for the purposes of Municipal administration. The necessity arose when there was an increase in population from about 15 laksh in 1941 to 24 lakhs in 1951 within the city. The urgency of the situation forced the Government to expand the Municipal jurisdiction beyond the Mahim Bay. Accordingly, in 1950, the Municipal Corporation limits were extended up to Jogeshwari along the western Railway and up to Bhandup along the Central Railway. This limit was further extended in February 1957 uptoDahisar along the Western Railway and Mulund on the Central Railway. The area north of Mahim i.e., Suburb and extended Suburb together are now called the Mumbai (Suburban) district. This district came into being on 1stOctber 1990 and has an area of 446 sq.kms. Perhaps Brihan Mumbai Municipal Corporation is the only local body in India having the jurisdiction extending over two districts.

The entire district is divided into wards and further into sections for administrative convenience. Since Mumbai and Mumbai (Suburban) has a single local body, entire area has been divided into wards. The wards are named alphabetically as A, B, C, etc. A to G/South wards falls in Mumbai district and H/West to T wards falls in Mumbai (Suburban) district. For the entire Municipal Corporation there is 88 sections since-1961, but the wards increased from 15 in 1971 to 21 in 1981 and again to 23 in 1991 and further to 24 after 1991 census. The newly formed ward is carved from R/North and named as R/central. Though Mumbai district is called Island City, Mumbai (Suburban) district is divided into Eastern Suburbs and Western Suburbs. During 1991-2001 no jurisdictional changes were made except a newly formed ward carved from within for 2011 number of sections and ward remained same as in 2001 Census. The district wise distribution of wards is given below.

The Mumbai Municipal Corporation, which has the jurisdiction over Mumbai and Mumbai (Suburban) districts, is one of the earliest experiences in local self-Government in British India. The Mumbai Municipal Corporation Act, 1888, which continued to govern the City, is largely the brainchild of Sir Pherozasha Mehta, the first Indian President of the Mumbai Municipal Corporation. The concept of an ideal structure of Municipal Government with a dichotomy of the deliberative and executive wings of the Corporation, found concrete expression in this Act. The Act has served on a model for other Corporations of India. The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation as it is known today, handles the entire gamut of civic affairs of the city (which covers both the districts) as also its development plan. The entire city in divided into six administrative zones with 24 wards. The zones are supervised by the Deputy Municipal Commissioners. While the administrative head of each ward is a Ward Officer. In addition there are departmental heads who supervise the work of the major departments pertaining to civic administration.

The Municipal Corporation has an elected body consisting of 221 elected and 5 nominated members with the Mayor of Mumbai on the presiding authority a leader of the house representing the majority party as well as leader of the opposition. The Office of the Mayor combines a functioned role of chairing the corporation meetings as well as ceremonial role associated with being the First Citizen of the City of Mumbai. The corporations executive arm for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of the Municipal Corporation Act, vests in the Municipal Commissioner subject to the limitations imposed by the Act.

The Bombay Municipal Corporation Act of 1888 has specified seven statutory collateral authorities changed with the distinct responsibility of the city Government. Each operates within the limits set for it. Of the seven statutory authorities, five are deliberative viz., (1) Corporation, (2) Standing Committee, (3) Improvements Committee, (4) Bombay Electric Supply and Transport Committee and (5) Education Committee; all of these with the exception of the Improvements Committee have powers to sanction funds. The remaining two are executive viz. The Municipal Commissioner and the General Manager, Bombay Electric Supply and Transport Undertaking. Apart from the four statutory committees, the Corporation has five special committees viz., (1) Works Committee (city), (2) Works Committee (Suburbs), (3) Public Health Committee, (4) Markets and Gardens Committee, and (5) the Lair Revenue and General purposes Committee; all of which deal with specified subjects.

Brief Note on Primary Census Abstract

Introduction: The Indian Census has the reputation of being one of the best in the world. The first Census in India was conducted in the year 1872. This was conducted at different points of time in different parts of the country. In 1881 a Census was taken for the entire country simultaneously. Since then, Census has been conducted every ten years, without a break. Thus, the Census of India 2011 was the fifteenth in this unbroken series since 1872, the seventh after independence and the second census of the third millennium and twenty first century. The census has been uninterruptedly continued despite of several adversities like wars, epidemics, natural calamities, political unrest, etc.

The Census of India is conducted under the provisions of the Census Act 1948 and the Census Rules, 1990. In Censuses until 1931, a synchronous de-facto method was adopted wherein the Census was conducted throughout the country on a single night. This being a very costly affair and involved the deployment of very large force at one point of time was given up in 1941. Since then the same methodology has been followed in all the Censuses. It is a gigantic operation and considered to be the single largest, complex, peace time administrative exercise in the world.

The Census Operation in India is carried out in two distinct but inter connected phases - the House listing and Housing Census followed by the Population Enumeration. During the first phase of Census 2011 i.e., House listing and Housing Census, the buildings, census houses and households were identified and systematically listed in the House Listing and Housing Census Schedule during the period April to September, 2010 in different States/Union Territories. Apart from listing of houses, some useful data on the amenities available to the households was also collected for assessing condition of human settlements, housing deficits etc.

Censuses prior to Census 2001 had the system of collecting the information through Individual Slip which was a key schedule for every individual. The information collected through slip was then compiled for a household. Some information was also collected in addition to this for the household. During 2001 Census a comprehensive Household Schedule was adopted replacing the individual slip concept. In 2011 Census also similar household schedule was used for canvassing. The scope of demographic, socio-economic parameters has been widened in every census.

2. Population Enumeration - Census 2011:

The field work of the second phase i.e. Population Enumeration was carried out during February-March, 2011. One of the essential features of Population Enumeration in the second phase was that each person was enumerated and her/his individual particulars were collected at a well-defined point of time.

The Census moment and the reference date for the Census of India 2011 was 00:00 hours of 1st March, 2011. The enumeration was conducted from 9th February to 28th February, 2011 along with a revisional round from 1st March,

17

2011 to 5th March, 2011 synchronously all over the country except for few specific areas of the Jammu & Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand states that remain snowbound in February. In these locations the population enumeration was done from 11th September, 2010 to 30th September, 2010 along with a revisional round from 1st October, 2010 to 5th October, 2010. The reference date for the census in snow bound non-synchronous areas of these states was 00.00 hours of the first day of October, 2010. In addition to the coverage during House listing & Housing Census, the enumeration of the Houseless population was carried out on the night of 28th February, 2011, as has been the usual practice. For the purpose of Census, certain areas where the access of the civilian enumerators was not permissible due to security reasons termed as Special Charges such as the Defence and strictly Military/Para-Military areas, including operational areas were also covered. Such areas were not covered during the House listing & Housing Census. In addition to the defence/para-military areas, Special Charges also included certain factory areas, certain colonies, sensitive areas, scientific establishments, etc. These also formed Special Charges as these were not accessible by the usual census enumerator.

3. Quality Assurance:

A Task Force for Quality Assurance (TFQA) functioned under the chairmanship of the RG & CCI. Experienced officers of the different divisions of the organization i.e. Heads and senior officers of the Census Division, Data Processing Division, Map Division, Demography Division and Social Studies Division comprised the TFQA. The Directors of Census Operations were co-opted as members whenever the TFQA discussed the data for their States/Union territories. The main objective of constituting the TFQA was to subject the data to stringent validation checks and ensure its quality before release as it was expedient to be satisfied itself about the quality of data before putting the same in public domain.

The Directors and their senior officers were involved at all levels with respect to the quality and the coverage of their states/Uts. The TFQA intensively scrutinized coverage and content parameters including edit and imputation logic. The most important aspect of the data quality was to ensure complete coverage of all geographical areas especially for the population enumeration phase where the data is disseminated right up to the village level in the rural areas and the ward level in the urban areas. Thus ensuring the complete coverage and correct geographical linkage of each enumeration block was one of the major planks of the quality control, especially for small area population statistics. The content was scrutinized mainly through the process of internal consistency, comparison with similar data in the past and also through validation with likewise data if available, from external sources. Quite often the local knowledge and perception was looked at to understand both the existing and the new emerging trends of population distribution and characteristics. A very comprehensive check and edit mechanism was put in place to objectively examine the preliminary Census 2011 Population Enumeration results and finally clear them for use. The population data was cleared only after the full possible satisfaction of the TFQA.

18

The entire work relating to the data validation and scrutiny was completed by all the States/Union territories under the overall supervision and monitoring of the Census Division of the Office of the Registrar General, India with active cooperation and support of the Social Studies Division, Data Processing Division, Data Dissemination Division and Map Division.

4. Primary Census Abstract:

The Primary Census Abstract which is important publication of 2011 Census gives basic information on Area, Total Number of Households, Total Population, Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes Population, Population in the age group 0-6, Literates, Main Workers and Marginal Workers classified by the four broad industrial categories, namely, (i) Cultivators, (ii) Agricultural Labourers, (iii) Household Industry Workers, and (iv) Other Workers and also Non-Workers. The characteristics of the Total Population include Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, Institutional and Houseless Population and are presented by sex and rural-urban residence.

In 1981 census main workers were presented into four categories. As regards 1991 Census, the nine-fold industrial classification of main workers has been given in the Primary Census Abstract. One of the important features of the Primary Census Abstract of 1991 Census was the presentation of population of the age group 0-6 which is continued in 2001 and 2011 Census. All the children of age 6 years or less have been treated as illiterate even if the child is going to a school and may have picked up reading and writing. This will help the data users in better analysis and understanding of the literacy data as the literacy rate is calculated with 7 years and above population and it is referred as effective literacy rate. In 2001 and 2011 census four categories of main workers have been given in the Primary Census Abstract.

5. Level of Presentation of PCA data in District Census Handbooks:

The format of Primary Census Abstract (PCA) adopted in the DCHB of 2001 Census has been continued for 2011 Census as the data on four categories of works have been presented similar to 2001 census. The Primary Census Abstract data in different PCAs are presented at different levels. The level of presentation of Primary Census Abstracts in DCHB is as under:

1. District Primary Census Abstract -District/C.D. Block/Town.2. Primary Census Abstract for Scheduled Castes- District/C.D. Block/Town.3. Primary Census Abstract for Scheduled Tribes -District/C.D. Block/Town.4. Village Primary Census Abstract -C.D. Block/Village wise.5. Urban Primary Census Abstract- Town/Ward level.-4-

The PCA Data for villages was presented C.D. Block wise for the first time in 1991 Census. This practice is continued in 2001 and 2011 Census. The term Total Population includes the Scheduled Castes, the Scheduled Tribes, the Institutional and the Houseless populations. An appendix to District

19

Primary Census Abstract has also been furnished showing urban enumeration block-wise particulars on Total Population, the Scheduled Castes Population and the Scheduled Tribes Population for each town. 6. Area Figures: The area figures supplied by local revenue authorities of the district in respect of tahsils, Police Stations and by the local bodies in respect of towns are given in square kilometers. The area figures of the villages supplied by the Tahsildars in acres have been converted and shown in hectares. The area figures of the C.D. Block are the total of the village areas coming under each C.D. Block. The area figures for the district are the same as adopted by the Surveyor General of India to maintain uniformity at the national level. -----------------------------------------------------------------
