  • MOTIF

    CHHINDWADA – PATALKOT

    The Patalkot valley is located at a distance of 78 km from Chhindwara in the North-West direction and 20 km from Tamia in the North-East Direction. ‘Doodhi’ river flows in the picturesque valley. This horse–shoe shaped valley is surrounded by giant hills and there are several pathways to reach the villages located inside the valley.

    Patalkot is a completely hidden valley that is cut from the civilized world. Patalkot’ name comes from Sanskrit word “Patal” that means very deep. There is a belief that after worshipping ‘Lord Shiva’, Prince ‘Meghnath’ had gone to Patal-lok through this place only. People say that Kings ruled this place in the 18th and 19th Centuries and that there was a long tunnel connecting this place to Pachmarhi in Hoshangabad District. Traditionally, the site is believed to be the entrance to Patal. This valley had long been cut off from the civilized culture outside and was discovered only few years back. Patalkot has been a home to a tribal culture and custom since its origin.

    FOREWORD

    The District Census Handbook (DCHB) is an important publication of theCensus 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 contains Census 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 Village Directory and Town Directory 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. Later on, 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 Town Directory 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 Town Directory, Part-B to Village and Town PCA and Part-C comprised analytical report, administrative statistics, District Census 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 Town Directory 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 Town Directory were added. In Village Directory, 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 1991Census 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 Village Directory was improvedby 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 Town Directory, the statement on Slums was modified and its coverage was enlarged by including details on all slums instead of ‘notified slums’.

    5. The scopeand coverage of Village Directory of 2011 DCHB has been widenedby including a number of new amenities in addition to those of 2001. These newly added amenities are: Pre-Primary School, Engineering College, Medical College, Management Institute, Polytechnic, Non-formal Training Centre, Special School for Disabled, Community Health Centre, Veterinary Hospital, Mobile Health Clinic, Medical Practitioner with MBBS Degree, Medical Practitioner with no degree, Traditional Practitioner and faith Healer, Medicine Shop, Community Toilet, Rural Sanitary Mart or Sanitary Hardware Outlet in the Village, Community Bio-gas, Sub Post Office, Village Pin Code, Public Call Office, Mobile Phone Coverage, Internet Cafes/Common Service Centre, Private Courier Facility, Auto/Modified Autos, Taxis and Vans, Tractors, Cycle-pulled Rickshaws, Carts driven by Animals, Village connected to National Highway, State Highway, Major District Road, and Other District Road, Availability of Water Bounded Macadam Roads in Village, ATM, Self-Help Group, Public Distribution System(PDS) Shop, Mandis/Regular Market, Weekly Haat, Agricultural Marketing Society, Nutritional Centers (ICDS), Anganwadi Centre, ASHA (Accredited Social Health Activist), Sports Field, Public Library, Public Reading Room, Assembly Polling station, Birth & Death Registration Office. In the Town Directory, seven Statements containing the details and the data of each Town have been presented viz.; (i)-Status and Growth History of Towns, (ii)- Physical Aspects and Location of Towns, (iii)-Civic and other Amenities, (iv)-Medical Facilities, (v)-Educational, Recreational & Cultural Facilities, (vi)- Industry & Banking, and (vii)- Civic & other amenities in Slums respectively. CD Block wise data of Village Directory and Village PCA have been presented in DCHB of 2011 Census as presented in earlier Census.

    6. The data of DCHB 2011 Census have been presented in two parts, Part-Acontains Village and Town Directory and Part-B contains Village and Town wise Primary Census Abstract. Both the Parts have been published in separate volumes in 2011 Census.

    7. The Village and Town level amenities data have been collected, compiled andcomputerized under the supervision of Sh. Sachin Sinha, Director of Census Operation, Madhya Pradesh. The task of Planning, Designing and Co-ordination of this publication was carried out by Dr. Pratibha Kumari, Assistant Registrar General (SS) under the guidance & supervision of Dr. R.C.Sethi, Ex-Addl. RGI and Shri Deepak Rastogi present Addl. RGI. Shri A.P. Singh, Deputy Registrar General, (Map) provided the technical guidance in the preparation of maps. Shri A.K.

    Preface

    The District Census Handbook (DCHB) compiled by the Census organization, Government of India is one of the most valuable and useful product of the Census which is brought out for each district in the State having micro level Census and Non Census data . It contains CD Block wise Primary Census Abstract at village/ward level under Census data. The amenities data along with additional information regarding area, population, civic status, land use etc. for every village/town is covered under Non Census data. This publication started from the 1951 Census, but prior to this, a similar publication was released in the earlier censuses. Those publications contained only village statistics, village names and total population. The 1951 Census could, therefore be said to represent a significant step forward, in the process of making detailed census statistics available down to the village level. An important achievement, for the first time in 1991 Census, was that the village level data was presented Community Development Blockwise.

    The scope of District Census Handbook has undergone considerable change since 1951. This is basically due to the growing demand for more information. To make the basic statistics available to the data users, as early as possible, the District Census Handbook of 1991 was brought out in a single volume as against the earlier practice of bringing it out in two parts. The volume was however divided in two parts viz. part A and part B. Part A contained the Village/Town Directory while part B contained the Primary Census Data. Continuing the practice of 1991 Census, the 2001 series of the District Census Handbooks also comprised of two parts. However the present DCHB is prepared in two separate volumes. Volume II contains the Primary Census Abstract and Volume I contains the village/town directory of the District.

    Volume II of the District Census Handbook contains Village and Town Primary Census Abstract. This provides information on area, occupied residential houses, number of households, sex-wise total population. child population in age-group 0-6, Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes, literates, workers, non-workers and classification of workers into four broad categories i.e. cultivators, agricultural labourers, workers in household industries and other workers in respect of each village and town of the district. Besides the brief history and other major characteristics of the district, inset tables and appendixes based on Houselisting and PCA alongwith analysis in the District Census Handbook provide glimpse of availability of amenities to villages relating to housing, assets available with households and demographic profile of population at tahsil/ C.D block level which are helpful for rural planning.

    Volume I contains Village Directory which provides information on infrastructure amenities and land use data at village level i.e. name and location of villages, area, population, number of households, important civic amenities/facilities available in villages like educational, medical, drinking water, drainage, post, telegraph, public call office, mobile coverage, internet cafe, private courier service, commercial and co-operative banks, agricultural and non-agricultural credit societies, recreational and cultural facilities, communications, approach to the village, nearest town and its distance and power supply. Similarly, the comprehensive statements and their analysis of Town Directory provide valuable information on growth, physical, economic, civic and development aspects in respect of each town of the district.

    block being the lowest administrative unit for developmental planning, it is assumed that the data provided at this level would be extremely useful to the planners for formulating micro level development plans.

    It may be noted that the village wise area figures presented in the PCA are based on village information as furnished by the revenue authority and the “total area” given for the community development blocks, is the sum total of the area figures of all villages coming under it. The “total area” of tahsil is based on the information furnished by the Commissioner, Land Records ,Government of Madhya Pradesh, Gwalior. In some cases the total area shown against the tahsil, may not tally with the total of the area figures of villages coming under it.

    The design of 2011 District Census Handbook has been evolved centrally by the Census Commissioner, India and accordingly these books have been prepared by my office. In earlier censuses and until 1991, the cost of publication of these books were borne by the State Government but since 2001 these are being printed centrally by the Census organization. In accomplishing this task we have had the whole hearted cooperation of the staff at various levels of different departments of the State Government. The data supplied by the field level officers have been comparatively checked with 2001 DCHB information and have been cross checked with the data obtained from various departments. An attempt had been made to reconcile the discrepancies by external validation to make it more reliable. I am grateful to all heads of departments of the State Government, officers and staff engaged in the conduct of 2011 Census for their cooperation to accomplish this task.

    Thecompilation of such a huge amount of varied data requires proper planning and close monitoring. We had the honour of having enlightened guidance and encouragement of Dr. C. Chandramouli, IAS, Registrar General and Census Commissioner of India.

    The data presented in the District Census Handbook required a concerted team work of officers and staff member of this Directorate who were involved with it at various stages of its planning, supervision, field work, computerisation, preparation of manuscript, maps and printing. I express my appreciation for the painstaking dedicated service rendered by all of them and also to the officers and staff of Data Centre, Bhopal for their untiring cooperation in finalizing the 2011 Census Data.

    I shall feel greatly rewarded if the book comes to the expectation of the data users.

    HISTORY AND SCOPE OF THE DISTRICT CENSUS HANDBOOK

    The need of data at the grass root level for the administrative and planning purposes at sub micro level as well as academic studies prompted the innovation of District Census Handbook. District Census Handbook is a unique publication from the Census organization which provides most authentic details of census and non-census information from village and town level to district level. 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 characteristics of 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.

    In1961 census DCHB provided a descriptive account of the district, administrative statistics, census tables and village and town directory 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 town directory, Part-B to village and town PCA and Part-C comprised analytical report, administrative statistics, district census 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 town directory 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 town directory were added into it. In Village Directory, 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.

    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 village directory and PCA data instead of the traditional tahsil/taluk/PS level presentation.

    As regards DCHB of 2001 Census,the scope of Village Directory was improved by including some other amenities like banking, recreational and cultural facilities, news papers & magazines and `most important commodity’ manufactured in a village in addition to prescribed facilities of earlier censuses. In Town Directory, the statement on Slums was modified and its coverage was enlarged by including details on all slums instead of ‘notified slums’.

    The scope and coverage of Village Directory of 2011 DCHB hasbeen widenedby including a number of new amenities in addition to those of 2001. In the Town Directory, seven Statements containing the details and the data of each town have been presentedviz.;(i)-Status and Growth History of towns,(ii)-Physical Aspects and Location of Towns,(iii)-Civic and other Amenities,(iv)-Medical Facilities,(v)-Educational, Recreational & Cultural Facilities,(vi)-Industry & Banking, and (vii)-Civic & other amenities in Slums respectively.CD Block wise data of Village Directory and Village PCA have been presented in DCHB of 2011 census as presented in earlier census.The data of DCHB 2011Census have been presented in two parts, Part-Acontains Village and Town Directory and Part-B contains Village and Town wise Primary Census Abstract. Both the Parts have been published in separate volumes in 2011 Census.

    BRIEF HISTORY OF THE DISTRICT

    Chhindwara district is named after it’s headquarter town Chhindwara. The town evolved from a village named Chhind (palm tree) which acquired this name due to the abundance of chhind trees in the area. The town is said to have been founded by Ratan Raghuvanshi of Ayodhya who killed the Gaoli chief of the tract and let loose a goat. Where the goat laid down he built an abode burying the goat alive beneath the foundation. A platform erected on the spot is worshipped as the tutelary deity of the town. Inside the ruins of mud fort a stone house was supposed to have been of Ratan Raghuvanshi.

    The early history of the district is vested in obscurity. In ancient times Chhindwara formed a part of the Vidarbha kingdom. Before the rise of the Mauryas in the 4th century B.C. probably the Nandas were the Supreme Sovereigns of this area. The area appears to have been ruled by the Nandas, Mauryas, Sungas, Vakatakas, the Kalachuris and the Gond rulers. The authentic history of the district begins from the sixteenth century when parts of the district fell under the domination of the rising Gond dynasty of Deogarh.

    The western parts of the district formed part of the Kherla kingdom in about 1398 A.D. Later on Jatra, a Gond Zamindar overthrew the Gaoli kings Ransur and Ghansur of Deogarh and extended his territories to the east. ‘Ain-e-Akbari’ refers him as a zamindar named Chatwa who was subsidiary to the governor of Garha in about, 1590 A.D. Bakht Buland in his line had acquired the paraganas of Seoni Katangi, Chanwari, Ghansur Chhapara and Dongartal from the king of Garha Mandla who then ruled from Chauragarh. His governor Raj Khan also acquired Partabgarh and Sangarhi for him. These comprise most of the modern district of Chhindwara and Betul and portions of Seoni, Balaghat, Bhandara and Nagpur districts and Bagra and Babai jagir of Narsimhapur. The capital was shifted to Nagpur by Chand Sultan. Probably the Deogarh kings were originally petty Gond chiefs, who acknowledged the sovereignty of the Garha Mandla kings. Eventually they might have become so powerful to overcome the neighbouring chiefs and ultimately declared themselves entirely independent of Garha Mandla. Gonds succeeded the Marathas, who, taking advantage of family quarrels between the sons of Chand Sultan, the successor of Bukht Buland, under the leadership of Raghojee Bhosale made themselves masters of the country.

    Chhindwara was formed as the annexation of the Nagpur state in 1854 and at first belonged to the Nagpur division. After the formation of the Central Provinces in 1861, Chhindwara was transferred to Nerbudda division with the headquarters at Betul, only for a year. It formed part of Nagpur Commissionery since 31st October 1931, immediately after the abolition of Nerbudda Commissionery. The Commissioner system was abolished in old Madhya Bharath on 1st November 1948. Chhindwara district became a part of Jabalpur division after the creation of new Madhya Pradesh on 1st November 1956

    The district is the basic territorial unit of administration in the state as well as in India. The Collector, as the head of the district administration is the key functionary of the Government, having vast powers and wide responsibilities. In many ways he is the link between the state Government and the people. He is the custodian of law and order and the pivot of local administration. He is the Chief Executive Officer of the district and as such he exercises general supervision over various departments in regard to their non-technical work. Co-ordination of the activities of various Departments, control over local-self governing bodies, execution of Government schemes and miscellaneous functions, such as Panchayats, Census, election and relief measures in time of emergencies like floods, famine and epidemics, etc. also come within his purview. The narrative on the organizational set-up of the collectorate may be divided into three main, viz.(i) land revenue, land-records including consolidation of land and other allied matters. (ii) Law and order and (iii) Development.

    The Collector is assisted by the deputy collector, tahsildars, naib Tahsildars, revenue inspectors and Patwaris. The Collector is also associated with a number of other committees in the district. The most important among them is the District Advisory Committee. The Collector is also vested with statutory powers under excise act to implement the excise and prohibition policy of the Government. The Superintendent of Police is the head of the Police department at the district headquarters. In order to facilitate proper and smooth judicial and administration, there are 24 police stations and 14 police chowkies (outposts). The Judiciary is independent. At the district level, there is district court headed by District and Session Judge. District and Session Judge is assisted by Civil Judges posted at tahsil level.

    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.

  • 17

    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, 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

  • 18

    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.

    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.

  • 19

    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 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.
