Thll census ehtllneration \\Til.!'! tlarried out in fun acconllng to plan but the Governtnent of India decided to restrict the tabulation for British India: Consequently ,the tables in this volume cover less than half the contemplated ran~ and offer in. effect only the distribution of the population by community and by province or state, district, tehsil and town. , . · .

Opportunity has been taken however ro sort ,wherever possible the 1/50 random aample taken in every area. · . · ·

. 2. The· slips in which the remaining unsorted information is to be found are stored ·in each province sgainst a possible reopening of tabulation .in happier circumstances. · ..

I-AREA, HOUSES AND POPULATION

. 1. This table sh9ws for each district its area, the number of towns and villages, the number of occupie<l houses and the total urban and rural population, male and female in the province. Similar figures are jVVen for 9 states of the Chhattisgarh States Agency and one state of the Bhopal Agency. The remaining 6 statl>s ()[the· Chhattisgarh States Agency which were hitherto included in the C. P. and Berar Census Ht~ports were allotted thilf time to Bihar for the pnrpose of enumeration anQ. tabulation and their statilltics will appear in the Bihar tables. The difference between some of the areas shown here and those in the corresponding table of 1931 is due to transfers to Orissa and adjustments within the province as woll as recalculation of areas as explained in the flyleaf of table II.

2. The area given in this table and Provincial Table I in some cases differ because the figures given in this table were adopted from .the district figures ~ven by the Survey of India while in Provincial '!'able I,

. the tehsil figures furnished by the Deputy CommiSsioners were adopted according to the instructions from · the Census Commissioner for India.

3. The urban population is 2,189,805. Excluding towns which have less than 5,000 population tho urban population is 2,152,406 and the urban/rural ratio 10: 75. '
