    Ahmednagar Fort

    Built by Ahmed Nizam Shah in 1490, this is one of the best-designed and most impregnable forts in India. A target of countless invasions, the Ahmednagar Fort has taken many blows and come out relatively unscathed. It has changed hands many times over from the time of Mughal rule, and was used as a royal prison a number of times.

    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

    Brief History of the District The district of Ahmadnagar is named after Ahmadnagar town. The town

    is famous since the medieval times. In the year 1490 when Ahmad Nizam Shah, the founder of the Nizam dynasty defeated the Bahamani troops under Jahangir Khan near its site. This Victory was called the Victory of the Garden. Because on that spot Ahmad Shah built a palace and laid out a garden. In the year 1494 he laid the foundation of the city close to the bag Nizam upon the left bank of the sina river and called after himself Ahmad Nagar or the city of Ahmad.

    Ahmadnagardistrict, popularly called Nagar and came into existance in 1818. In 1822, its boundaries spread between Vani in Dindori sub-division of Nashik and Karmala in Solapur district . In 1830 Solapur sub-collectorate was inducted in the district and continued as such till it gained the status of an independent collectorate in 1838. During 1837-38, Nashik sub-collectorate comprising of sub-divisions of Sinnar, Chandor, Dindori, Nashik, Igatpuri and Peinttahsil was under Ahmadnagar district. Subsequently this sub-collectorate of Nashik was abolished in 1856 and the area reverted to Ahmadnagar district. 1869 witnessed the declaration of Solapur and Nashik as independent districts , thus leading to the shaping and emergence of present Ahmadnagar district.

    In fact the district has a chequered history of evolution in as much as in 1891 it included the sub-divisions of Jamkhed, Newasa, Shrigonda, Shevgaon, Sangamner, Nagar, Kopargaon, Akola, Karjat, Parner and Rahuri. In 1913 PathardiPeta was created and the remaining part of Jamkhedtaluka was renamed as JamkhedMahal. Subsequently, Karjattaluka was down graded as KarjatPeta during 1931-41. 1941-51 was marked by the upgrading of Pathardi and KarjatPetas as KarjatTaluka. In 1945 Shrirampurtaluka came into being. Jurisdictional changes of 1950 resulted in the transfer of 21 villages from Bid district to Ahmadnagar district on the contrary the district had to lose 26 villages to Bid disrict and one village to Aurangabad district. With the reorganization of State, the district was incorporated into Bombay State in 1956. However since 1960, it constitutes a part of Maharashtra State.

    1318 inhabited villages and 5 towns dispersed over 12 talukas and one mahal comprised Ahmadnagar district in 1961. During the decade 1961-71 with the upgrading of JamkhedMahal the number of tahsil rose to 13 and at the time of 1971 census there were 1312 inhabited villages, 5 uninhabited and 6 towns. The position continned to be the same till 1981 Census. However, within the district some changes did occur during the decade 1971-81 when the number of villages rose to 1503 (excluding two uninhabited villages) , and with the declaration of Rahuri and Warwandi as towns the number of towns increase to 8 Rahuri town attained municipal status through a State Government notification and Warwandi was declared a Census Town as it qualified the specific criteria laid by census to declare as urban area. At the time of 1991 Census the number of tahsils remain 13 with 1556 villages and 13 towns. The district at present has 14 tahsils, 19 towns and 1584 villages (including 3 uninhabited villages).

The number of districts unchanged, it is same in 2001 Census to 2011 Census. The number of districts rose from 30 in 1991 Census to 35 in 2001 Census. Greater Bombay districts of 1991 Census divided in to two forming Mumbai and Mumbai suburban districts. Similarly new districts Nandurbar, Washim, Hingoli and Gondiya districts were form bifurcating Dhule, Akola, Parbhani and Bhandara districts respectively. At the time of 2001 Census Konkan division included 6 districts, Nashik division had 5 districts, Pune division had 5 districts, and Aurangabad division had 8 districts, Amravati division had 5 districts and Nagpur division had 6 districts.Ahmadnagar district is included in Nashik division.

    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.

    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.
