PREFACE

T he ma in repor ts and statistical volumes pertaining to the l 961 - census fall under three broad groups on

the bas is of terr itory coverage. T heAll- India Reports and Tables compiled in the office of the Registrar General ,India, encompass the entire country. T he reports compiled by the State Super intendents relate to individualStates and Centrally Administered Terr itor ies . T he third group consists of District Census Handbooks thescope of which is l imited to individual Distr icts , and they give information for each town and village. T he Handbooks have been compiled by the Super intendent of Census Operations , but are published by the State Government .

T he Distr ict Census Handbooks were publ ished for the fir st time at the l 95 1 - census . They provedvery useful with the officers work ing in CommunityDevelopment Blocks , Tahsils andDistr icts , and were consulted in connection w ith elections and by students of social sciences interested in local problems . It was , therefore,decided to continuewith this series at the 1 961 - census . This Handbook contains the essential census data for eachvillage and town (according to wards) in the Distr ict. Bes ides , some very useful information collected fromvar ious State Depar tments has been included in it, trying to make it a self- conta ined book of reference for theDistrict .

T he book is divided into four parts . Part I is mos tly descriptive and cons ists of four chapters . Chapter Iintroduces the District, giving information on its location, phys ical features , climate, fauna and flora , towns andplaces of interest , a br iefhistory of theDistr ict and its administrative machinery. In Chapter II are discussed theuse of land , main crops and irr igation,

industr ies , trade and commerce, and communications . In Chapter IIIthe salient features of population are discussed . Chapter IV deals w ith social and developmental activities , andachievements dur ing the First and Second Five-Year Plans .

In Par t II are presented the statistics secured from var ious Government Depar tments relating to rainfall ,temperature, land util isation, irr igation, area and yield of pr incipal crops , l ivestock , industry c c - operation,

education, pr inting and publ ishing, entertainments , medical and health, births and deaths , transport and

communications , community development activities , banks and insur ance, and justice. Then comes a Table on

the fair s and festivals in the Distr ict .

T he Tables relating to the l 96 l - census are presented in Part III. Part IV conta ins a Directory of VillagesandTowns , showing the location ofeducational institutions , hospital s and dispensaries , post and telegraph offices ,electrification and protected water - supply ; area ; number of occupied res idential houses and households livingtherein ; population ; persons belonging to Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tr ibes ; number of l iterate and educated persons ; number of workers in nine broad industr ial categor ies ; and number of non- worker s .

T he book contains several maps . There is a map of theDistr ict showing the administrative b oundar ies ,roads and railways , r ivers and canals , and location of towns . Another map shows the distr ibution of populationin theDistr ict by dots : the population of towns is shown by proportionate circles ; and of rural areas by dots , onedot representing 200 per sons . For each Tahsil in theDistr ict two types ofmaps have been prepared , one show ingthe location of social amenities , and the second showing the boundar ies of villages and towns . Thesemaps were

prepared in the Cartographic Section in the State Census Office, jointly by Kumar is Ranbir Sokhi and Satwinder

H . Singh, both M .As’

. in Geography.

This publ ication is the outcome of the joint effor ts of a large number of workers and GovernmentDepartments , andgrateful acknowledgement ismade of the help received from them. W ithin the Census Organisation mention need s to be made of Shr i Jaswant Singh Dilawary, Statistical Ass is tant and Shr i V ishwa Mitter ,Supervisor , under the supervis ion of Shr i T. P. Garg, Deputy Superintendent of Census Operations , for

prepar ing the Tables presented in Part II and of Shr i Goverdhan Dass Singla, Statistical Assistant and Sarvshr iDharam Paul Ja in and Joginder Nath Sur i, Tabulation Ass istants , under the superv is ion of Shr i Pawan Kumar ,Tabulation Ofiicer , for prepar ing the Tables presented in Parts III and IV.

INTRODUCT ION To THE DISTRICT

CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

Name.—T he District takes its name from the town of Mahendragarh once called Kanaud . But the

Di strict headquarters are located ma inly because of the ava ilability of office accommodation, at Namaul whichis sa id to be founded about 900 years ago near the Dhos i hi ll in themidst of a vast forest and was ca lled Naha r

Haul’ or Lion’

s dread . Another folk etymology ascr ibes it to thewifeof a Raja Laun Karan. Namaul , accordingto thi s story, is a corrupted form for

Nar Laun’

.

Location and boundar ies .— Mahendragarh is one of the four Distr icts in the Patiala Divis ion, and

occupies the southern extremityof the Sta te, jointly with Gurgaon . It lies between 27°—47

'- 50

"

and 28°

- 48'- 50

north latitude, and 75°

- 48’- 50

"

and 76°

'

east longitude, and l ies in the extreme south of the State.

Bounded by Hissar and Rohtak Di str icts in the north, Gurgaon in the east, Alwar Distr ict of Rajasthan in the

south and Jhunjhunu District of Rajasthan in the west ; theDistr ict is some 60 mi les south-west ofDelhi .

Area ! .— T he area of the Distr ict, according to the Surveyor General of India is sq . mi les and

according to the Director of Land Records , Punjab sq . miles . T he Di str ict ranks fifteenth in area

among the 1 9 Distr icts of Punjab . T he area of its three Tahs ils , according to the village papers is given below

Tahs il Rural Urban

PHYSICAL FEATURES

The bill ranges are a ma rked feature of the Distr ict ; they are par t of the great Aravali cha in. Theyprovide natural meadows for animal s and al so conta in a number of r ich minerals . T he Dhos i hill touches a

height of about feet above the sea - level . This hi ll is a sacred place for pilgr image. It is bel ieved that the‘

Pandvas’

,while wander ing in banishment , had to scale thi s hillock . At present it is known for a well , called

Chander Koop whose water is cons idered to be sacred . T he hill presents pleasant scenery in the rainy season andis a spot for picnic . A fa ir is held here on Somavati Amavas .

T he level land abounds in sand and dunes , particularly in Mahendragarh Tahs i l . T he loam of the

District may be divided into hard , l ight and sandy. T he first of these is termed as Dakar , the second Raus li and thethird Bhur . T he Dakar being hard , requires much ploughing and good ra in ; while the Raus lineeds l ittle ploughing and readily reta ins moisture. Raus li is the bes t soi l for barani cultivation . Bhur is very poor land but it requires l ittle ploughing as the sub- soil retains whatever mois ture i t receives . Sometimes it produces a fine crop, theheavy rainfal l is prejudicial to it .

The Dakar is . mostly found in theDadri tract and the Raus li towards the west of the road running fromDadr i to Namaul and it changes into sandy loam near the hill s . T he Bhur is found all over the Distr ict yetit is more common in Mahendragarh Tahs il . Atmany places the soil is bedded w ith l ime, kankar , stone and rockand the depth var ies from 0 to 250 feet , e.g . in Satnal i area where the water table is below 200 feet, the rocky bed

depth is below 250 feet .

T he desert from Rajasthan is advancing into theDistr ict at a rate of about half a mile per year and to

prevent this alarming loss the State Government is pursuing a‘Green Belt Scheme’ . T he land is generally

fertile, but due to the absence of irr igation facil ities and scanty ra infall the yield of crops is low as compared withother Distr icts . T he soi l contains a good deal of calcium and consequently there is a tendency for its becomingalkal ine. It is generally poor in organicmatter and requires fairly heavy doses ofmanure for improving its fert i litybut heavy manur ing is not poss ible without abundant water - supply which is not to be had unless irrigation facilities are extended to thi s District .‘TableA- 1

River sys tem— There is no perennial r iver in the Distr ict. There are, however , a few small streams andchannels which flow only dur ing themonsoon. T he Dohan andKrishnawati are important among them. T he

former or iginates from the Ja ipur hill and flows in Rajasthan terr itory for some 1 8 mi les before enter ing theDistr ict. Its cour se in Punjab runs for 30 mi les and thereafter it finishes in the plains of the MahendragarhTahs il . It has a defined waterway up to village Bhur J at but thereafter it just spreads out in the fields . The

Krishnawati also or iginates from the Ja ipur hills . It enters Narnaul Tahs il near the villages Bhedenti and

Dostpur , some 16 miles south of Namani town . After a course of about 30 miles , i t fans out near the villagesNooni Kalan,

Saluni and Dublana inNamaul Tahs il . T he soil in the r iver basin is sandy loam with varying percentage of sand . Bes ides , there are a few small seasonal streams such as theDhani Cheema Wal i nadi, Sara iPanchnoota , Mosnuta andMeghot Binja nadi, Ganwari Jat stream, Nangal Durgu , Kalba, Atela Kalan (in Dadr iTahs il) and the Kher i Bura (in Dadr i Tahs il) . These streams take off mostly from the local hill s and traversethrough the lands of the villages after which they have been named .

Geology.— TheDis tr ict has var iousminerals . T hemajor minerals which are controlled by the Industr ies

Department and theminor minerals which are controlled by the Collector . T he majorminerals are as follows

Mineral Villages where found

Lime- stone, Dolomite Calcite

T he quarr ies, where theseminerals are found are leased out by theDirector of Industries, Punjab .

Bajri, building stone,marble, slate stone, kankar lime- stone are among theminorminerals remained underthe control of theDirector of Industries till 1 959, when theywere transferred to thePanchaya ts . Control over theirextraction was made over to the Collector in 1961 - 62 . He is sues the terms for the specified amount ofmineralsto be extracted from the quarr ies , and the royal ty and compensation are charged at fixed rates . T he royal tyvaries fromRs . P. per 100 cft. on lime- stone (burning) andbajri to 0 50 P. on building stone. T he compensation is half this amount. T heminerals are located as shown below

The amount real ised as royal ty and compensation on account of the extraction of major minerals wasRs . and for minor minerals i t was Rs . dur ing 1961 - 62 .

Some of themineral s are of veryhigh quality. It will thus be seen that bes ides the scope for improvingagr icul ture, the Distr ict has large industr ial potentialities Ti ll now all the minerals that are extracted are,

however, sent out of theDistr ict 1n raw form s ince there is no big es tabl ishment here to process them

CLIMATE

T he climate is hot and dry in summer and dry and cold during winter . The sever ity of the weather isincreased by the sandy soil and shortage of water . Being very near the Rajasthan desert , theDistri ct gets fre

quent dust s torms dur ing summer . It is only during the cold months that the cl ima te 1 8 good and atmosphere isfree from dust . From March onwards the day temperature starts ris ing and in the month of May and June i tbecomes very hot . By the end of July the monsoon clouds appear on the horizon. On the whole, the cl imateis .dry andhealthy. For hours before a storm there is a lull and it becomes very close, dust particles hang in the

air and after some time the storm break s suddenly and the dus t spreads all over . Sometimes a dust- storm is

followed by l ight shower which br ings down the temperature. But soon after the mercury begins to r i se and the

atmosphere is aga in worked up for another storm. Thus , storm follows storm almos t at equal intervals all throughthe summermonths , ex cept when an occas ional shower settles i t down. Fortunately theDistr ict is never frequentedbydisastrous cyclones or hurr icanes . Even the worst storm does nothing beyond fell ing a few trees or blowingup the roofs of some thatched huts .

Ra infall .— Being s i tuated at the tail end of both the Bay of Bengal and theArabian Sea currents of the

monsoon, the Distr ict gets very l ittle ra in. T he Table I" of Par t II conta ins monthwise figures of number ofra iny days and amount of fal l dur ing 1 95 1 to 1960 for the three Tahs i l headquarters towns . T he decenn ial averagefigures are given below .

MahendragarhNamaul

There is pract ically no ra in dur ing May and June. The ra infall during December , January and Februaryis sometimes negl igible. The little fall during the cold months 1 3 verymuch welcomed s ince it is good for the root

crops . A characteri s tic of the local ra infall 1 s its extreme partiality. Heavy ra in is often received at one place,

‘Ptlce 38

6

while a mile away, a drop does not fall . A very big portion of the annual rains occur s dur ing July to September .

Consequently the khar if crop is the main stay of the farmers and the rabi harvest on unirrigated lands is a big

gamb le. Should the rains fai l dur ing the monsoon, scarcity conditions preva il , accompanied by acute shortage

of fodder .

In an ideal year from agricul tural point of view the monsoon commences by the middle of June. T he

first showers should not be heavy lest the seed in sandy lands is washed out . Mild showers alternating withsunshine are required in July and August . Continuous clouds and rain dur ing these months causes the crops tomildew andhamper weeding. while poor rains and strong wester lywind dry up the crops . The first halfof Septemberis a cr itical period as on the ra ins dur ing this period depends the ripening of the khar if and the sowing of the rabi.T he success of the rabi crop depends o n adequate showers Spread from mid- September to mid- January. Ashower in the last half of February is also beneficial but after this the rain is not good as there is always the dangerof hail fal l ing, which may ruin the s tanding rabi crop s .

Statistics regarding temperature are not forthcoming as the Meteorological Department does not recordtemperature at any place in the District .

Fauna — In the hi lls var ious kinds of deer are occas ionally found whereas in the plains there are the

black buck , and neelgai (Blue Bull) . Other common wi ld animals are the wild cat , the fox , the jackal and themongoose (nioIa) . T he hare is very plentiful . T he birds of a great var iety are found in all part s of the District and

include the peacock , partr idge, quail , pigeon and snipe. Cobra and karait are found throughout the Distr ict .

F Iora . .

—T he District is inadequately wooded , and some parts are practically bare of trees . T he k ikar

(Acacia Arabica) is found all over the Distr ict, as also ber i (Zizyphus Nummular i‘

a) . T he ber i is a multipurposeplant its leaves are lopped and fed to cattle, its fruit is eaten and its thorny branches are used for the fence or asfuel while its root is a tanningmaterial . Neem (Me1iaAgadirachta) is seen in and around the villages . Pipal (FicusRel igiosa) is a common tree for shade. Shisham (Dilbergia 8 1380 0 ) is planted along roads and railway line

s .

His tory!

.— T he oldhistory of theDistr ict is little better than the local legends . T heNamaul town and its

surrounding villages are said to have their or igin in the days of Raja Anangpal , a ruler of Ajmer and the grandfather ofPr ithvi RajChauhan . He ruled over thi s area throughhis cous in Raja Laun Karan, who had his seat

on the top of Dhosi hi ll where he built a fort , the rema ins of which are still to be seen. Other parts of the Distric t came into being during the Moghul times and thereafter . After having been ruled by the Moghuls and then

for some time by theMaratha s , theNawab of Jhajjar , and the Br itish as part of theHissar Di str ict , the Distr ict wasfinally parceled out among the Phulkian States ofPatiala , Nabha and Jind , by theBriti sh Government in recogni

tion of the services rendered by these ruler s in the upr is ing of 1 857 .

T he Land Settlement Commiss ioner , Mr . PophamYoung wr i tes in his Settlement Report prepared in

1 90 1 ,“ Baba Al a Singh, the founder of the Patiala raj could never have dreamt of the time when the fruits of the

labour of Narnaul zamindars would help to fill the Patiala treasury. T he as sociation of the Namaul and the

adjoining tracts w ith the three Phulkian States was directly due to the incidents of 1 857 It was as a result of the

splendid services rendered to the Br itish Government by the chiefs of the Sikh Cis- Sutlej States that the Namaul ,Dadr i andKanti-Bawal tlaqas have crystal lised as integral parts of the three States of Patiala, Jind and Nabha” .

T he subsequent hi story of theDistr ict ismore or less the history of the rulers of the erstwhilePhulkian States .

After Independence and the consequent formation of the PEPSU in 1 948, the three tracts ofNarnaul andMahendragarh from Patiala , Dadr i from Jind and Atel i (part of the Bawal Nizamat) fromNabha , were combinedinto the present District ofMahendragarh . W ith the States

Reorganisation Scheme, the enti re State of PEPSU

was merged into Punjab on l st November . 1 956 and consequently the Dis tr ict is now one of the 1 9 Districts ofPunjab .

Namaul [A rea 2 . 50 sq . miles Pop . ( 196 1) — T he town of Namaul is the admin is trativeheadquarters of theDis tr ict. It lies about 1 00 miles south- wes t ofDelhi and is connected w ith it both by rail androad . The town is of great antiquity. T he Punjab Gazetteer of Phulkian States , 1 904 , gives the followingaccount of Namaul,

“ Founded accord ing to tradition 900 year s ago near theDhos i hills in themidst of a vastforest , it was called the

Nahar Haul’

or the‘

ADNIINISTRAT ION

For general administration, Punjab is divided into three Commis s ioners’

Divis ions and further into 1 9Districts . Mahendragarh is one of the four D istr ict s under the administrative control of the Commiss ioner ,Pat iala Division subjec t to overall control of the State Government . T he DiStric t is in the overall charge ofa Deputy Commis sioner .

Deputy Commissioner and his Ass istants — T heDistrict administration is vested in theDeputy Commi .ss ioner who has multifar ious dut ies . As District Magistrate he is respons ible for maintaining law and orderand is the head of theDis trict police and prosecuting agency.

Sub-Divis ions andTahs ils .

— There are three Tahsils in theDistr ict Dadri,Mahendragarh and Na :naul .In pursuance of the Government pol icy of decentralising author ity and converting Tahs ils into Sub-Divis ions , aSub-Divis ional Chicer (Civil) has been posted atMahendragarh, and similar oflicers will be posted shortly at

Narnau l andDadr i . The Sub-Divisional Ofiicer is either an Assistant or an Extra A ss istant Commiss ioner andexercises control over theTahs ildar andNaib-Tahs ildar . He has been vested with first class magister ial powers .

His power s vis - a - vis the Sub-Divi sion are analogous to those of theDeputy Commis s ioner vis- a- vis the District ,though he exercises them in consultat ion w ith and w ithout detr iment to the author ity of the Deputy Commiss ioner . Th is decentral isat ion has been efi

'

ec ted in order to enable the Deputy Commissioner to devote moret ime for development work .

T he Tahs ildar s andNaib- Tahs ildars are vested with Class II andClass IIImagiSterial powers respectively,and on the revenue s id e they are II grade As sistant Co llectors . Their main task being the collec tion of revenue,they have to tour ex tens ively, but at the saine time they play an impor tant par t in accelerating the execution of

var ious development schemes , and are util i sed to themaximum during the times of emergency. They are

as s isted in revenue work by an ofiice Kammgo and a number of field Kanungoes andPa twar is .

For the purposes of as s isting the var ious revenue.agencies , a number ofKanungoes have been provided .

T he preparat ion of annual vi llage records and revenue s tatistics rests W ith thePa twar i-s and for this purpose theDistr ict is d ivided into pa twa r circles , each circle being looked after by a Pa twar i.

T heLambardar collects the land revenue fromthe landowners anddepos its it in the Tahs il Sub- Treasury.

He is an impor tant link in the administration, s incehepromotes law andorder in his village and sends informationregarding breach of law and births and deaths to the neares t police station. A Chaukida r is appointed to ass is thim. T hePa twar i and Chaukidar receivemonthly salar ies while the c hice of theLambarda r is hereditary andcarries an emolument of 5 per cent of the land revenue collec tions .

J udic iary— Separation of the judiciary from the executive has been efl

'

eCted in the Distr ict . The administration ofjustice, 0 11 130 1 1] the civil andCr iminal s ides , is headed by theDis tr ict andSess ions Judge, Sangrur , who1 8 as s isted by a whole- time Senior Sub Judge- cum-Additiona l Distr ict Magistrate at Namanl . He also exercisessummary powers and also has some pol ice stat ions under his d irect control like other magistrates . There are

two Sub Judges - cum- First Class Mag istrates at Mahendragarh andDadri. Government cases for the civil and

priminal courts are presented by the Prosecut ing Inspector who is as s isted by a number of Prosecuting Subnspec tor s .

Polk a — The pol ice adminis trat ion in the Distr ict is controlled by a Super intendent of Police who isrespons ible for aSSistmg theDistrict Magistrate inma intain ing law and order . He functions under the administrat ive control of theDeputy Inspector-General of Pol ice, Patiala Range, andis ass isted by two Inspec tor s , 1 3 SubInspector s , 56 Head Constables and 373 Constables .

Mahendragarh Mahendragarh IMahendragarh II

Narnaul Narnaul INarnaul IINangal Chaudhr i

A block cover s some 70 villages and is under the charge of a Block Development andPanchayat Officerwho is al so the ex - officio Executive Officer of the Block Samiti. The B.D. P.Os are under the administrativecontrol of the S . D. Os (Civil) . They have no administrative functions and arema inly concerned with the promotion and executions of development schemes .

A B. D.&P.O. has a number ofExtens ionOfiicers , belonging to var ious departments , to ass ist and advisehim in their respective spheres l ike the Agricul ture, Industr ies , Co- operation and Education. At the lowest rungof the Extens ion Service Scheme are the VillageLevelWorkers andLady Social Workers who work for the developmen:11and social education plans , a iming at improving the social , economic and health conditions of the rural

pop ation.

T he first two Community Development Blocks in the Distr ict were instituted in. 1 952 . By the close of1 962 , their number rose to 8 .

Zila Par ishad, Panchayat Samitis andPanchaya ts .— The eightPanchaya t Samitis , one for each Development Block , elected under thePanchayat Samitis andZilaPar ishadsAct ( 1 96 1) are supposed tomake arrangementsformeeting the requirements of the area under their jur isdiction in respect ofagr iculture, health and rural sani tation,

social education, co- operation and other all ied matters . Their members are elected from amongst the member sof the villagePanchaya ts in the block . At theDistr ict level , a Zila Par ishad cons i sting of representatives fromvillagePanchaya ts ,Panchayat Samitis , and some c c - opted andnominatedmembers , have taken over the entireCommunityDevelopment work replacing theDistrict Boards of the British regime. T he Zila Parishad is respons ible for framing theDistr ictDevelopment Plans . It guides and supervises thePanchaya t Samitis , scrutinises their budgets andundertakes a good bit of special development works . The new pattern of administration, which has s tartedfunctioning, is thus respons ible for local works , measures likely to promote the health, comfort, convenience and

interest of the rural folks , the social and cultural advancement, village self- sufficiency and economic prosper ity in

rural areas ,

The Punjab GramPanchayat Ac t ( 1 952) provides for a Panchayat in every village with a population of

not less than 500 per sons and a joint Panchayat for smaller villages with a total population of not less than 500 .

Accordingly there exist in the Distr ict 4 14 Gram Panchaya ts w ith a total membership of Elected on the

bas i s of adult franchise, the GramPanchaya ts are the statutory bodies . Their functions include cr iminal (judicial)civil and revenue (judicial) work bes ides administrative and executive duties . These powers at the moment arel imited , but will be extended in due cour se, as and when this experiment in decentralisation of authority provessuccessful . They have been empowered to levy certain taxes and are allowed a specified percentage of the landrevenue of the vil lage to provide them w ith funds necessary for discharging their functions . The setting up of thesesmall vi llage republics is , in fact, a bold step forward in the process of democratic decentralisation as they assumean important and potentially paramount role.

Co- operative Depar tment.— The working of the Co- operative Department in the Di str ict is looked after

by an Ass i stant Regi strar with headquarters at Mahendragarh .

Agriculture Depar tment. —T he work of.

the Agr iculture Department in the Distr ict is under the DistrictAgr icul tureOfiicer . He is ass isted by special ists inhorticulture, plant protection and soi l science, etc . at theDistrictheadquarter s , and by Agr icul ture Inspectors and Sub- Inspector s in the N . E. S . Blocks .

T heDistr ict Food and SuppliesOfficer looks after the procurement, movement and distr ibution of foodgrains and other controlled commodities .

TheDistr ict Inspector and Inspectress of Schools are respons ible for the inspection ofmiddle andprimaryschools for boys and girls , respectively. T he supervi s ion of high and higher secondary schools is done by theDivis ional Inspector of Schools , Nabha .

T he construction andma intenance of government buildings and roads in theDistr ict are in the charge ofthe Executive Engineer , Dadr i . Simi larly, there are Sub -Divis ional Ofiicers for electricity and public healthworks .

T he Distr ict Welfare Officer looks after the welfare programmes for scheduled castes and backwardclasses . T he District Public Relations Ofizicer does publicity and propaganda work .

Local Bodies — Municipal Committees function under theMunicipal CommitteesAc t ( 1 9 1 1 ) at Namaul ,Charkhi Dadr i , Mahendragarh, Kanina and Atel i . None of these Municipal Committees is of the first class ,because the towns in theDistrict are of small s ize.

Area not availablefor cultiva tion.— This class compr ises of absolutely barren and uncultivated lands (nil)

and lands put to non- agr icul tural uses such as lands under buildings , roads and canals or otherwise appropr iated fornon- agr icultural purposes . The area of such lands is acres ( 1960 - 6 1) or per cent of the total area of theDistr ict. There has been some increase in this type of land dur ing the decade due to construction of buildings androads .

Other uncultiva ted lands ex c luding fa llow Iands .— This category denotes lands available for cultivation,

whether taken up for cultivation at some stage and abandoned later and culturable wastes , graz ing lands and landsunder tree groves not included under sown area . Such lands measure acres or 6 6 per cent of the total area .

Cultiva tedarea .

-In revenue terminolo land is styled as‘

if i t was sown even once dur ing thefour previous harves ts . As such, the cultivate area com “ 86 8 (i) fallow lands and (ii) net area sown . T heextent of change during the las t fiVe years is brought out y the following figures

1956- 57 1 960-61

Fallow lands (acres)Percentage to total areaNet area sown (acres)Percentage to total areaCultivated area (acres)Percentage to total area

In the State as a whole, cul tivated area forms 65 per cent of the total area. T he high figure of 84 inMahendragarh is due to nature being generous in giving theDistrict a larger share of land which can be ploughed .

At the same time i t is a tr ibute to the dil igence of the farmers who have exploited this advantage.

Ir rigation (Table - T he handicap of inadequate and uncertain rainfall in the Distr ict has beenoffset by art ificial irrigation very meagrely. Amr itsar and Ferozepur , admittedly the best irr igated Districts inIndia, have 90 and 64 per cent of the net sown area receiving irrigation. The corresponding figure for Mahendragarh is only

Canal irr igation in the Distr ict is entirely fromDadri Irr igation Project which serves a portion of Dadr iTahs il through theWestern Jumna Canal . Itwas initiated during 1 956- 57 on the pattern ofBhakra Canal System.

The project provides irrigation by extens ion and construction of new channels from the Bhiwani sub - branch ofBulana Branch. T he Dadri Feeder , taking off from the tail of Bhiwani sub - branch, delivers water to the Dadr iDistr ibutary System and the Bond

'

Distributary System. T he total length of these dis tr ibutar ies is 76 canal miles .A portion of the canal system has been completed and the remaining work is expected to be completed within twoyears . This project served acres dur ing 1960 - 6 1 .

Government has under cons ideration a number of schemes aiming at utilis ing irr igation facilities to thefull , such as theDadri , Rewar i and GurgaonLift Schemes . TheRewar i Lift Scheme is amajor project which woul dcost about 1 07 lakh s and would cover 88 villages of Jhajjar Tahsil of Rohtak District, 26 villages of GurgaonTahs il and 36 villages of Rewar i Tahs il in Gurgaon District and eight villages in theDadr i Tahs il ofMahendragarh District.

Bas in Irrigation.— By this term is meant collecting water in streams by bunds and to utilise it for irr igating

the kha rif crops and for sowing the rabi crops . This method is being practised in the Narnaul Tahsil s ince long.

T hemost important of such dams is theNamanlDam, constructed twomiles fromNa maul town at the confluenceof the Chorassi andMalo seasonal streams . With a max imum depth of 45 feet and a length of feet, the damhas a storage capacity of 800 to 900 feet acres and a spillway capacity of cusecs . It was built at a costofRs . 6.70 1akhs and can irr igate about acres in the kharif season, bes ides leaving some 700 acres for the

.

cultivation of rabi crops . T he other bands of this type in the Distr ict are ( l ) Maghot Biga Bund, (2) Sarai Bund ,(3) Loharu Bund, (4) Raghunath Pura Band, and (5) Durg Nangal Bund . These bunds conserve the sorl andimpound water which soaks into the ground and raises the sub- soi l water level in the wells in the vicinity.

irrigation in the Dis tr ict is of cons iderable importance. Some acres were irrigatedby them dur ing 1 959 - 60 chiefly in the Na maul and Mahendragarh Tahs ils . T he wells are generally worked bychords and the supply of water exhausts after five or six hours work ing.

A number of bore-holes were drilled by the Ex ploratory Tube- wells Organisation of the Government ofIndia at various places in the District recently but the results obtained were not encouraging

.

The quality of

water was found to be either chemically defective or its supply.

was not adequate. Even deep boring up to .

a depthof 6 18 feet has notmet with suitablewater bear ing strata . T he Government is , however , encouraging the installation of pumping sets in theDistr ict and in 1962- 63 Rs . were advanced to 263 parties for this purpose.

MAIN CROPS

There are twomain harvests in a year the rabi (hari) and the kharifl sawani) . T he rabior spr ing harvestcons ists mainly of wheat, gram,

barley. It is sown in October-November and harvested frommid-March to midApr il . T he khar if or autumn harvest cons ists chiefly of bajra , jowar and pulses . These cr0 ps are sown in June toAugust and reaped from September to December .

Wheat.— Because of scarcity of water, wheat is not an important crop in theDistr ict. It occ upiedacres in 1 960 - 61 producing tons of grain as compared with acres producing tons dur ing 1 950- 5 1 .

The production of wheat in theDistr ict is on the increase with the development of irr igation— three- fold duringthe last decade. T he yield per acre at lbs . during 1 960 - 61 is , however, modest.

Gram — Gram is a rabi crop and is sown barani ex tens ively. It is consumed in var ious ways in the formof chapaties , frommixed flour of wheat, gram and barley, fried , as palcoras , as parched grains and its green

'

shoots

and pods cooked as a vegetable. It is also an important concentrate in the food of l ivestock .

T he area under gramwas acres in 1 960 -61.

and its production was estimated at tons . T he

cultivation of gram varies widely fromyear to year depending on the timeliness of rains .

Bar ley .— Barley is sown in the same per iod as wheat. In a dry area it is better suited than wheat because

of its lower water requirements ,and quicker matur ity. It is consumed in var ious forms . Mix ed with wheat and

gram, its flour is made into chapaties . Pat ched and powdered , it is taken as satta . Bar ley of this Distr ict has ,bes ides , a good demand from brewer ies because of its good malting qualities . T he crop occupied acresproducing tons of grain in 1 960- 61 .

Bajra.— Bajra is grown extens ively in theDistr ict chiefly in Narnaul andMahendragarh Tahs ils , on barani

lands and even on poor sandy soils . In 1960- 61 , it was sown over acres and its production wastons .

J owar .- Like bajra, jowar is also a khar if and barani crop . A portion of the crop is consumed locally

and the rest is sent to the central Districts of the State where it is sown for green fodder . In 1960- 6 1 , it occupiedacres and the production of grain was estimated at tons .

Mung .— Mung is largely a barani crop . It is commonly sown as a subordinate crop with maize, jowar

and sometimes bajra . It occ upied acres in 1960- 61 , producmg tons of pulses .

Rape andmus tard — These two rabi oil- seeds (sarson and taramira)are important cash crops in theDistr ict.They are suited to this dry region and are sown mostly in barani fields . An area of acres was under thesecrops in 1 960 - 6 1 producing about tons of oil- seed s .

Groundnuts , sesamum and sugar - cane are also sown on a small area in the District . Cotton and sugarcane are conspicuous for their absence in this area.

Agricultura l machinery and imp lements (Table l Z— Par t — In 1961 , the Distr ict had 48 tractors, 17oil- engines with pumping sets and 45 electr ic pumps . T he high pr ices have encouraged the big farmer s to makeinvestments in this direction.

.Rotation of crop s — Dearth of water p laces a l imitation over the selection of crops but the farmer makesthe best use of the circumstances . Shallow- rooted cr0 ps are general ly followed by deep - rooted crops in the nextseason to get max imum yields . Hence bajra andjowar are always followed _by gram in the barani fields . Sarson

is sown generally after keeping the land fallow in kha rif and by conserving moisture. T he fields vacated by gowaraare sown with wheat and barley under irr igated conditions and gram andmustard under barani conditions providedthere is enough moisture in land . In case there is nomoisture at the sowing time, bajra is sown in the fields dur ingthe nex t kharif . T hedry farming practices recommended by theAgricultureDepartment, are followed by themoreintell igent farmers who realise at leas t 50 per cent better yields .

Lives tock (Table l l — Part — Mahendragarh District has a good stock of bullocks , camels and

goats . The camel is just as good as a bullock to the farmer in this dry tract, for farming, transpor t and drawing waterfrom the well . T he cattle are of theHariana , Nagori andmi xed breeds . T he Animal Husbandry Department isissuing Hariana bulls to improve the breed . Two artificial insemination centres have also been s tarted at Dadriand Narnaul . Table 1 1 shows the number of animals in theDistrict counted on two occas ions in 1 956 and 1961 .T he total number of cattle dur ing 1 961 was including 454 approved bulls .

Buffa loes — T he buffalo finds favour with the farmer because of its r icher milk and incidentally amp leIas s t. Bes ides , thebuffalo stands stal l feeding better than the cow. Buffaloes in theDistrict are of local Da tta Sing i(s ickle shaped ho

'

rns type) breed , but a fewMurrahs are also to be seen in the Dadr i Tahsil . After Partition theAnimal HusbandryDepartment s tarted issuing Murrah bufl

aloes to improve the breed . It may bementioned thatthe Murrah buffaloes ofDadri Tahs il have been getting the first prize in breeding championships in all - India cattleshows . T he number of buffaloes in the District was in 196 1 ;

Sheep and goats - These small animals are kept al l over the Distr ict but more commonly in villagesnear the hills . This District is suited for sheep breeding as there are no sheep epidemics in a dry area . T hemostsuitable breed of sheep in this District is the Bikaneri. W ith a view to improve and increase the number of

these animals , a Sheep and Wool Extens ion Centre was started at village Pal i in 1 960 where 1 8 typical goodBikaneri rams are being ma intained . These rams are being dis tr ibuted to the sheep owners of the surroundingvillages from themonth of April to July for cover ing purposes .

T he number of sheep and goats in theDistr ict was in 1 961 .

Lives tock diseases — T he District is healthy and l ivestock d iseases are not common. T he prevalentdiseases are rinderpest and foot- and-mouth diseases . The District appears to be fair ly well - served by the presentfive veterinary hospitals and 2 1 out- lying dispensar ies and other centres . T heminor disorders are treated by thefarmers themselves .

Anima l fairs .— T he Zila Parishad and a few Block Samitis arrange animal fairs at various places in

the District. Apart from providing marketing facil ities to the farmers and encour agement to breeders , thesefai rs br ing handsome income to the authorities concerned . T he more important fair s are held at Haluwas ,Charkhi Dadr i, Kanina . Gujjarwas and Ateli .

B~INDUSTRIES

The Dis tr ict is rich in minerals . Dur ing the pr incely rule much attention was not paid toward s ex

ploitation of these minerals . On the format ion of the PEPSU in 1948 , leases were granted to var ious firmsfor the extraction ofmarble, calcite,

iron ore, etc . After the merger of PEPSU with Punjab, the developmentof mineral resources was taken up more methodically. Surveys by the Geolog ical Survey of Ind ia, Controllerof Mines and the Atomic Energy Commiss ion are now proceeding in the Distr ict with a view to know the

extent and location of themineral weal th. As a result , depos it s of r ich iron ore have been found out in villagesSolah, Khadana and Pali Z airpur and p rel iminary surveys l lave shown that it woul d repay setting up a p lgand ca s t iron plant . L ime stone, which is required in the process and in other chemical industries, is being sear

ched and it is expected that huge depos its would be found in theDistr ict . Intens ive dr illing operations have alsobeen going on at village Antr i Behar ipur under the SurveyProgramme of the Geologica l Survey of Ind ia . Similar ly survey work in regard to calcite, quartz and other minerals is in progress .

There are only two big factor ies in the Distr ict . The Dalmia Cement Factory at Dadr i and thePartap Slate Factory at AteliMandi . The Cement Factory at Dadr i was establ ished as a pr ivate enterpr ise 11 1 1938with a capital investment ofRs . 30 lakhs . The present investment of the concern ismore than R s . 2 Crores . AgamSta capacity of 750 tonnes its present product ion is 600 tonnes of cement per day, and it employs 7 1 3 workers .

Kankar - the ma in raw material for cement production is badma inly from the nearby villages of Loharwala,Kalia-Ka- Bas and Bnagvi. T he s late factory at Ateli Mandi draws its supply of s late s tone from the quarr iesat Rampur, Bohar i and Bas . Its month ly production is more than s lates . Another Slate factory, near

the one at Atel i is located at Kund in Gurgaon Distr ict and together they are respons ible for about 60 -

per Cent

Of the total production in the country. There is a very long and deep belt of s late stone along the thirty mileRewar i -Namaul route.

Several cottage and small scale indus tr ies which flour i shed in theDistrict by the beginning of the centurybut haVe decayed or are declining gradually, such as lacquered bed legs , nut crackers (sarotas) , s ilver buttons ,country shoes , brass haggas (hubble bubble) , dyeing of women

s scarfs , bras s wares , iron pans and spoons , etc .

Unfortunately the Dis trict cannot boast of these industr ies now.

Embroidery frames — Embroidery frames aremanufactured by an es tablishment at Namaul. T hematerral s used in their making are wood and bras s pins which are purchased fromDelhi.

Bang les . Making of lac and glas s bangles is a very old indus try p ursued bymaniars as an ances tra loccupation.

The bangles p roduced are p lainandnot so good as the ones manufactured at Feroz abad .

Furniture from reed — A few famil ies of Naik and other low cas tes engaged themselves in makingmurrahs m Chandpum, JhojuKalan and Seema Villages . T he rawmaterial is obtained from sarkanda (Sachharum Sara) growmg on waste land s .

Shoe indus try — In the times gone by, shoes made in theDis tr ict had earned a name in nor thern Ind iafor their being light and brocade work . W ith the ext inction of nawabs and r ich mus lim families who patronised such Craftsmen, the industry has become almos t extinct. Moreover shoes of Wes tern type made at KanpurandAgra have now taken the p lace of country shoes . Only a few workmen p roduce suchjutis , most ly of cheapprice and for local sale.

Stone wonk .

~Stone carving and dress ing is an old indus try of theDis tr ict. Near every railway s tationsmall workshop s ,

make stone columns , tiles andkhutis . T he workers known as s ang trasli are dextrous in s toned ress ing . Stone tiles and logs are also imported fromKhatu near Jodhpur in Rajasthan . Mill s tones are anotheri tem of the indus try and the s tone for thepurpose is brought fromMala Khera near Alwar .

Marble chips and s labs .

~A pr ivate concern excavates marble from a quarry at Antri Behar ipur .This

work is done manually. T he s tories after rough dres sing are brought to Narnaul where they aremade into marble s labs by electrically dr iven saws . T he residual pieces are ground into chip s andpowder to be used in flooring .

T he concern employs 1 30 workers and its monthly output is about kilegrams ofmarble chips andsq . centimeters of marble s labs . This marble is of var iegated colours and command s a h igh demand even fromother countr ies .

Lime and mor tar .— At Dhani Bathutha in par ticular and all over the Dis tr ict in general , l ime s tone

of h igh qual ity is quar ried which is sent out in raw form and burnt into l ime in small k iln s loca lly. Mortar isa by product of lime. Both the products find a ready market for their qual ity.

Indus tr ia l es ta tes and a reas .- There is an urban industr ial es tate at Namaul with fourteen shed s , the

ma in objective being to as s ist the small scale industr ialis ts by provid ing them factory bui ldings of s tandarddesign, fitted with electric power andwater . T he immed iate availability of ready-made factory buildings on rent

or higher purchase bas i s reduces the t ime lag between~the p lanning and s tar ting of industries and also saves the

entrep reneur from blocking his p roduct ive capital in land and building. The p rogramme of indus trial es tatesalso check s haphazard growth in industr ies in towns , thus avoid ing indust r ial slums .

A rural indus tr ial estate is being es tablished at Mahendragarh . The Common Facility andDevelopment Centre, which forms a par t of the estate, as s is ts entrepreneur s by providing requi s ite technical know-how

for planning and standard is ing production. A Common. Faci lityWork shop has also been set up in the vi llageBondKalan andanother is under cons truction at Kukse inMahendragarh Tahs il .

C— TRADE AND COMMERCE

Mahendragarh Di s tr ict is bounded by theA lwar and Jhunjnu Dis tr ia s of Rajasthan and Rohtak andGurgaon Dis tr icts of Punjab . Trade with these areas is fa ir ly brisk mostly in agricul tural commodities . The

mineral products are sold mostly atDelhi from where consumer good s are imported which are fair ly heavy, suchas wheat , sugar andgur , fruits , cotton seed and cloth . T h e Di str ict is frequented by famines when fodder ha salso to be impor ted from d i stant places both by road and ra il which are adequate for the purpose.

The Phulkian State Gazetteer ment ions about the ex port trade of theDistric t in cotton, ghee, mus tard ,WOO1, bed legs , sara tos , bras s haggas (bubble bubble) , marble, l ime, etc . But now cotton production has

16

almost completely m scd and there has been different pattern of export trade dur ing the last few decades , Theimportant commodit ies at present ex ported are, cement , iron ore, s lates and slate stone, l ime and l ime- stone andmarble slabs and chips , raw wool , embroidery frames , reed furn iture, bajra , gram andghee. Besides , cattle aresent out in substantial numbers . Table 10@ shows the arr ivals of agricultural produce for sale in the fiveregulated markets in theDistr ict dur ing 1 961 .

D— COMMUNICATIONS

The Distr ict is fa irly well served with roads , railway lines traverse all T ahsils , and generally speak ingpost oflices are located at

convenient d is tances .

Ra ilways— Anet work of ra ilway lines connects all towns in theDistr ict withDelhi. The thr ee metre

gauge ra ilway l ines pass through the Distr ict . Rewari-Phulera chord , which runs in the south, on wh ich fallAteli, Narnaul and N iz ampur Stations ; the Rewar i-Bikaner chord passes through the centre connect ingKan ina, Rajawas , Mahendragarh, Z erpur Pal i and Satnal i ; Rewar i-Hissar chord runs in the northern partwith important stat ions as Charkh i Dadr i and Manehru.

Roads (Table - There has been a cons iderable road ex pan s ion in recent year s . On the 3 l st March ,

1961 , the Publ ic Work s Department was mainta in ing 162 miles ofmetalled and 78 miles of unmetal led road sin the Distr ict, and theMunicipal Committees another 1 8 miles ofmetalled and 6 miles of unmetalled roads .

These roads l ink theDistrict with Rewar i , Rohtak , Bhiwan i andLoharu and a number of bus serv ises ply onvarious routes .

Rohtak Distr icts , the sex ratio is higher than the State average and the number of women per men is 929 ,

88 1 and 89 1 , respectively. This featuremay be attributed to somemen working out s ide theDistrict . The sex

A D istr ict is too small an area to cominent w ith confidence on the age structure of its people, s incethe inflow and outflow of populat ion at d ifferent stages of life is cons iderable.

T he age pyramid of the Distr ict, as built from the above figures , has a broad base and taper s ratherobl iquely 335 persons per populat ion are below the age of 10 and only 86 of age 55

years and above. Roughly speaking four out of every ten persons are below the age of 1 5 , five in the groups1 5 year s to below 55 and only one past the age of 55 .

T he age span of females is lower than of males . Males below the age of 1 5 year s are 462 perthe corresponding figure for females is 458 .

It is a da ily observat ion that a large number of persons shift from villages to towns for study and l ivelihood. The low paid among them leave their families in their nat ive homes and l ive in the towns by themselevs .

When past the age of useful work , most of them return to villages . T he ch’

eet of this type of movement is reflected in the statis tics of rural and urban age composition. For age group s below 1 5 , 1 5 to below 55 and 55 and

above, the dis tribution among males in rural areas is 466, 438 and 95 and in the urban areas 433, 490 and 77

It will benoticed that in theDistr ict as'

a whole some 58 per cent Of the males and 45 per cent of femalesare unmarr ied . The higher p roportion of unmarr ied males is due to shor tage of females which aspect has beens tudiedearl ier . Correspond ingly, there is a higher proportion of marr ied among female (47 per cent) than amongmales (37 per cent) . T he p roport ion ofmarr ied males is higher in towns (4 1 per cent) than in villages (36 per cent)but the p roportion ofmarr ied females is higher in villages (47 per cent) than in towns (45 per cent) .

T he rural ites have a cons iderable leeway tomake up in order to come in l ine with the urbanites . In the

towns ofMahendragarh Dis tr ict, there are 594 per males and 235 per females who are literate, but invillages they are as few as 344 and 37 respectively. This feature is common throughout the State where the l iteracyper is 654 for males and 432 for females in towns and 3 1 9 and 104, respectively in rural areas .

For the rural population this percentage is and in urbanareas it is denoting a higher degree ofmobility in towns .

Another interesting feature is that among males as many as 92 per cent were born at the place they wereenumerated , as against 54 per cent in the - ca se of females . T he lower figure among females is due to their leavingthe paternal house on marr iage.

Among the Scheduled Caste per sons Chamars were themost numerous andnext in order were theDhanuk Ba lmik Kha tik Bawar la and Kabirpanthi

T he 1 95 1 - census recorded persons belonging to the Scheduled Castes in the Distr ict denoting anincrease by per cent dur ing 1 95 1 - 6 1 . Neither the 195 1 -census nor the 1 961 - census recorded any personas belonging to Scheduled Tribes in the District.

T he Scheduled Caste persons lag in education. Only per cent among them could read and wr ite ascompared w ith 1 8 per cent of the general population

It w il l be seen that holdings of 1 5 acres and above are comparatively few in the Distr ict as comparedw ith the State. This may be due to the sandy soils dependent on scanty rainfall discouraging cultivation on tinyplots , as also mak ing big holdings unmanageable.

In 1961 the school going boys in theDistr ict were per cent of themale populat ion in the age group s5 to below 20 years but the g ir l students formed only per cent of the females in this age group .

Thesefigures indicate the extent to which concerted efi‘

orts have still to bemade to pull up the people fromthe quagmire of illiteracy. T he Scheduled Cas tes and Backward Classes are st i ll not much enthusiastic abouteducat ion despite pr imary educat ion havingmade compulsory and encouragements being pr ovided to them by theState. Educat ion is free up to themiddle Standard in all Government and provincial ised schools . Free books ,freeships , stipends and scholarships are awarded to the s tudent s belongin

Cultural a c tivities — In the ent ireDi str ict there is not a s inglecultural institution or society.

Some educational institutions , however , have dramatic andfine arts clubs of their own. A club where both ofiic rals andnonoflicrals get together ex ist at Namanl .

I n the rural areas of the Di str ict a number of Youth Clubs , Mahila Samitis , Kisan Sewak Sanghs ,Balwaries (Nurser ies) and Community Centres have started in var ious CommunityDevelopment Blocks for theenjoyment and recreation of rural ites .

Cinemas (Table - There is only one cinema house in the Dis tr ict which was establ ished at Namaulin 1 955 - 56. Some moving talk ies , theatr ical societies and circuses vi sit the Distr ict off and on . The general

demand for recreation can be judged from the fact that the p roceeds from the entertainment tax amounted to

Rs . 624 in 1 954 - 55 and R s . in 1959 - 60 (Table

Libra r ies — T he District library at Narnaul has some good books Bes ides , a number of librar ies havebeen opened in the rural areas under the CommunityDevelopment Programme dur ing 195 1 - 61 .

Newspapers and J ourna ls .-The only journal publ ished in the District is the weekly

s tarted at Narnaul in 1 960 . It covers d iverse top ics and is published in Hindi .

Pr inting p resses — Part icular s of five printing presses in theDistrict are given in Table Two of themare located each at Narnaul andCharkhi Dadr i andone at Mahendragarh. These pres ses are small units but arefairly adequate for the local needs .

Radios (Table 23)f.- Radio is ga ining in popular ity. In 196 1 , l icences for radio sets were i ssued in

theDis tr ict as against 849 in 1 959 . T he radios installed in the panchaya tghars aremade good use of by theVillagefolk and the Deha ti programme is their special attraction.

Social welfare ac tivities — TheDistr ict Welfare Officer looks after the interests of the scheduled castesand backward c las ses , and arranges for loans and subs id ies for building houses , starting small scale and cottageindustr ies for the education of children, and ass i sts them in acquir ing land for cultivation.

T he Indian Red Cross Society has a branch in theDistrict. Branches of Child Welfare Society and

Medica l and Publ ic Hea lth (Tables 24 , 25 and 26) .fi —W ith the spread of educat ion and the scientifictreatment for ailments coming nearer the reach of the peop le, themethods of faith cure and quackery are beingdiscarded gradually. Homeopathy is practised by a few practitioners in towns . The ayurvedic and unani Sys

tems are l iked by the people because of simpler and familiar medicines prescr ibed . Government have given betterrecognition to these systems and the number of ayurvedic dispensaries in the Distr ict has increased from four in1 95 1 - 52 to 20 in 1960 - 6 1 , each under the charge of a Void or Hakim and under the direct admin istrative controlof the Director of Ayurvedic, Punjab .

In 1 961 , there were 20 allopathic hOSpitals and dispensar ies in theDistr ict equipped with 1 70 beds . The

Civi l Surgeon looks after the civil hospitalS and dispensar ies run by the State Government. TheDistrictMedicalOfiicer of Health has under him two primary health

SPECIALISED INSTITUTIONS

A Malaria Control Unit was es tablished in theDistr ict in 1957- 58 under theNational Malaria ContrO1 PIO

gramme to undertake the malar ia eradication operations . T he unit now carr ies malar ia surveillance operationss ide by s ide with the spraying Operations . It covered vil lages and towns in 1 960- 6 1 involvingpersons and an expenditure of Rs . T he number of villages , towns and persons has been counted acc ording to the number of surveillance operations (Table

The small pox eradication programme was launched and completed in the Distr ict in 1 961 , whenmore than90 per cent of the population was vaccinated by a team of doctors , supervisor s and vaccinators . T he Distr icthad been covered under this programme once before al so. Facil ities for vaccination and revaccination exist in allhospitals and dispensar ies .

Genera l sanitation — Sanitation in towns is the function of the municipal committees . In rural areas ,which are now covered by the national extens ion service blocks , the work is being looked after by the block s taff,pr imary health units and the panchaya ts .

T he Publ ic Health Divis ion, Gurgaon, executes the var ious health schemes in the District. In

the towns of Narnaul , Mahendragarh, Charkhi Dadri and Ateli water- supply schemes have been completed . In

the rural areas , water - supply schemes have been completed at J hoju Khurd , Iboju Kalan, Hadhra Kher i,

Butter , Kher i, Bura and Fatehgarh. No sewerage scheme has so far been planned in the Distr ict.

Standard of health andmedica lfacilities .- Because of the dry cl imate, outdoor habits and the absence of

conges tion even in towns , the Distr ict remains generally free from epidemics , and the standard of health is good .

Publ ic health measures andmedical facilities have improved in recent years . T he number of hospitals and dis

pensaries in theDistrict increased from 1 7 in 1 955 to 20 in 1 961 . T he number of beds in these institutions increasedfrom 86 in 1955 to 1 70 in 1 96 1 , and the number of patients treated rose from in 1 956 to in 1 961 .

In 1 956 the total expenditure on hospitals and dispensar ies was Rs . and it went up to in 1 961 . T he

level of health of the people is accordingly r is ing.

Despite the improvements described above, Mahendragarh continues to be poorly served medically amongthe Punjab Districts . T he area per medical institution worked out sq . mile in 1960 , placing Mahendragarhin the 14th pos ition among the Punjab Distr icts , the lowest figure being for Simla Distr ict and the highest forKangra Distr ict Similarly the population served per medical institution in theDistrict is which givesthe Distr ict the 1 5th pos ition, the lowest figures being for Labanl Spiti and Simla Districtand the highest for Sangrur Distr ict

Crimes — T he District has happily a low incidence of crimes . However , being on the border of Rajasthan,the District offers temptation for smuggl ing goods from one State to another and for other anti - social activities .

Table shows the results of tr ials in the cr iminal courts . They appear to be on the increase which, maybe part ly due to better registration and detection. For studying the nature of crimes in theDistrict and their trend ,the number of cases instituted in 1 950 and 1 961 were looked into some detai l . Itwas found that therewas a decl inein cases against person and property. This was matched by an increase in excise cases . Thus whereas in 1 950,10 murders occurred in the Distr ict, their number came down to six in 1 961 . Two dacoities occurred in 1 950,whereas none occurred in 196 1 . T he number of burglar ies was 1 1 9 in 1 950 and 53 in 1 961 . T he number of robberies decl ined from 1 5 in 1 950 to one in 1 961 and of thefts from 86 to 46. Eighteen cases of r iot occurred in1950 but in 1 961 there were only 8 . Sixteen cases were detected under the Arms Act in 1 950 but only 8 in 1961 .

Under the ExciseAc t, the cases , however , increased from 4 in 1 950 to 126 in 1 961 . T he number of cases for allcr imes declined from 548 in 1950 to 43 1 in 1 961 .

DEVELOPMENTAL ACTIVITIES

T he follow ing account relates to the trinity of Samooht’

k Vikas,Sehkar i Samaj andPanchayati Raj, i.e.

Community Development, Co-operation and Panchaya ts .

Community Development .— T he administrative set up of the CommunityDevelopment work has been givenin the 1 st Chapter . T he first block in theDistr ict was s tarted on l st April , 1 956 and by 1 962 the entire rural areahad been covered by 8 development blocks .

T he programme ofCommunityDevelopment andNational Extens ion Service has come to occupy an important place for taking the technological advances , par ticular ly in the field of agriculture, r ight to the door of the

and growth. People’s participation and contribution in this programme is of pr ime importance. It is not easyto assess this contribution because it is mostly in the shape ofmanual labour and voluntary participation whichis difficult to eval uate. T he achievements of these blocks cannot be set out in exact terms . Hence, a broad outlineof their activities is given below .

Improved seeds , implements , green manure and fertilizers are suppl ied to cultivators at subs idized rates .

They are encour aged to preserve dung in p its . T he development authorities also help the farmer in reclaimingland and in laying out model farms . Financial ass istance is given for constructing percolation well s and install ingpump ing sets and tube~wells .

Cow and buffalo bulls of good breed are supplied to villagers . Ar tificial insemination centres have beenopened at 1 3 centres , each having a few key villages attached to it, andmaintaining some pedigree bulls .

Health and sanitation activities cover opening of new hospitals , rural health centres, rural dispensar ies ,child welfare and maternity centres , construction of drains , dry latrines and smokeless challahs , pavement ofstreets , installation of hand - pumps and construction of wells for dr ink ing water .

Educational activities cover opening of new schools , upgrading of old schools , convers ion of schools intobas ic type and construction and repair ing of school buildings . In adult l iteracy centres , men and women are en

couraged to learn the three Rs’

T he exper iment has , however , yet to prove its efficacy. Librar ies and reading roomsar e started andyoung vil lagers are encour aged to organise into youth clubs . Mahila Samitis are organised for the

welfare of women folk . Children’

s parks and ba lwaries (nur ser ies) are started for the benefit of the children.

Panchayatghars and community centres are provided, and radio sets are suppl ied for the benefit of the community.

People are encouraged to construct and improve roads . T he villagers are also encouraged to organise

themselves into co- operative credit societies , industrial societies , farming societies and service societies of var iouskinds .

Village and small scale industr ies areencouraged by setting up demonstration- cum- training centres wherevillagers are trained in var ious arts and crafts . T he block development authorities have tr ied also to set up model villages to serve as examples for other villages .

Co- operation (Tables 1 5 and — Cc - operation has been practised in the District since long. In Dadr iTahs il , which was part of the erstwhile Jind State, 2 1 agr icultural co- operative societies were functioning at

the time of its merger with the Distr ict in 1 948. In Narnaul and Mahendragarh Tahs ils of the former PatialaState, the movement made good progres s dur ing the controlled era . A number of grain dealers ’ c c - operativeassociations were organised from 1 943 onwards almost in every marketing centre. In 1 950 the District office ofState Co- operative Department was established, with an Assistant Registrar , assisted by a number of Circle andTahs il Inspector s . T he following figures w ill indicate the progress made by the movement in recent years

By 1 960- 61 , per cent of the entire population of theDistr ict had been brought w ithin the fold of co- operation. Banks and bank ing unions finance the societies affiliated to them. There was one such bank in the Distric t in 1 959 - 60 with a membership of 541 and work ing capital of thousand rupees . T he bank issued loans tothe tune of thousand rupees .

In 1956- 57 , there were 125 agr icultural credit socities with a membership of and a work ing capitalof 875 thousand rupees and these societies issued loans of 333 thousand rupees . By 1959

- 60 , their number wentup to 28 1 with a membership of and a working capital of thousand rupees , in that year they issuedloans to the tune of thousand rupees .

There were 3 marketing societies , 14 weavers ’ societies , 10 consumer societies, 2 hous ing societies , 5farming societies and one milk- supply s ociety in the Distr ict in 1 959- 60 . These societies have proved helpfulin eliminating the exploitation of the ar tisans by the midd lemen and also to the member s in the purchase of rawmater ial and disposal of finished products .

EXPLANATORY NOTE

The Tables presented below have been prepared from the da ta collected during the 1961 - census . Someof the Tables give informat ion Upto Tahs il and Town level , and have been prepared exclus ively for this volume.

Tables A- IV, B- III (Part A) , B-VI. B- VIII Part A) , 0 1 1 1 Par t B) , and SCT- III (Part A) give information onlyfor urban areas . T ahsilwise Tables for urban areas could not be prepared since sorting of slips was donefor non- city urban area of the Distr ict as a s ingle Unit . Slips for the five cities in the State were. however , sortedseparately. The Tables have been grouped under suitable ser ies and are expla ined below.

A— SERIES GENERAL POPULATION TABLES

These Tables deal w ith distr ibution of population in 196 1 and its growth s ince 1 90 1 . There are four Tablesand three Appendices in this senes .

Table A- I shows area both in square miles and square kilometres number of villages , inhabited and un'

inhabited number of towns number of Occupied houses and population for the Distr ict, each Tahs il and Town,

with sex break - up . The figures for Towns have been given below the Tahs ils in which they are located . Figures aregiven for the total , rural and urban areas , separately.

Th e area figures for theDistrict andTahsils were obta ined from theDirector of Land Records , Punjab and

those for urban areas from the respective Local Bodies . Rural figures were worked out by substracting the urbanfigures from the total area figures .

Occupied res identia l house refers to those houses which were actually used for res idence , either exclus ivelyor jointly w ith some other use. Thus vacant houses and houses used for shops , factories , workshops , offices . etchave not been included in these figures .

In the 1 961 - census an urban a rea or town was defined as a place having a loca l administration, such as

Mun icipal Committee or Cantonment Board,or an area treated as a town because of its having (a) population exceedingand (b) at least 75 per cent of its male workers were engaged in non-agricultural pursuits .

Persons were enumerated according to the p lace.

of their res idence and not their place of work . except inthe case of visitors who were enumerated wherever the enumerators met them and on inquiry were told that suchpersons had not been enumerated before. T he population so recorded in towns has been styled as urban population

and the rest as rura l popula tion.

Village, as in previous censuses , refers to an area for which a separate Record of R ights is ma inta ined. or

which has been separately as sessed to Land Revenue, or wou ld have been so assessed if the Land Revenue had not beenreal ised or compounded or redeemed , or which the Sta te Government had otherwise declared as an

estate’

. T his

definition of village is identica l with that of‘

mauza’

under section 3 ( l ) of the Punjab Land Revenue Ac t, 1 887 .

The definition applies to a demarcated area of land and not to a res idential s ite. In hills cultivation is generallyscattered and the population general ly lives in homesteads built on individual farms or in groups of hamlets . Therealso the revenue estate is known as

mauza’

, but the smal ler units are called ‘tikkas

’ in Kangra District except in Kuluwhere the revenue estate is termed as ‘kothi

’and the smaller unit is ‘

phati’. In Labanl Spiti District the revenue

estate is referred to as‘kothi and its components as ‘

gaon’

.

Appendix I shows the terr itor ial changes which took place dur ing the decade 195 1 - 6 1 . Such Tahs ils as hadnot undergone any change of area dur ing the decade have not been mentioned in the Appendix ;

Appendix II shows the number and population of villages each having or more persons , and townsw ith population under T he population living in such big villages and towns of small s ize has also been shownas percentage of total

,rural and urban population, under cols . 4 and 7 .

Appendix III relates to the houseles s and institutional population.

100

A publ ic or social service worker actively engaged in public service or furthering the cause of a political partywas recorded as a worker .

T he census questionnaire did not have any question to determine the pos ition about a person being fullyor partially employed .

A person doingmore thanone work was classed under the pr incipal work which .consumed a larger port ionofhis working time, andnot according to the work which brought him a major port ion of income.

Table B- 1 gives figures for workers and non-workers according to sex and broad age-

groups . Workers

Table B-III (Par t A) has been prepared only for the urban areas and gives the class ification of workers andnon-worker s by educational level s . Workers have been distr ibuted further into nine industr ial categories .

In the 1 96 1 - census , the test for l iteracy was abil ity to read and wr ite a s imple letter .

.

A person who ful

filled this test was taken as literate. In case he had atta ined any educational s tandard , the highest examinationpassed was recorded in the enumeration slip .

These qual ifications have been grouped into six educational levels . T he s ixth level “ Technical Degree or

Diploma equal to Degree or Post- GraduateDegree”

is sub-divided into seven groups .

Table B-III”(Par t B) relates to rural areas , and the educat ional levels are confined only to (i) Pr imary or

Junior Bastc , and (ii) Matriculat ion or above.

Table B- IV (Par t A) shows the di stribution of workers engaged in household industry by sex and clas s of

workers , They have been divided further into b ranches of industry listed in the“ Indian Standard Industrial Class i

HOUSEHOLD ECONOMIC TABLES

Household Economic Tables (B X to B-XVII) have been prepared froma 20 per cent sample of householdSchedules . In the census history, information for the household as a whole has been collec ted for the first time.

102

The Household Schedule cons ists of two par ts . InPart- I, after recording the name of the head of the household and whether he belonged to 8 Scheduled Cas te or Schedu led Tribes . the following pa rticulars were recordedabout the household .

A.

.

If the household was engaged in Cultivation,

the area of lahd w ith it under ownership and tenancy,

and any portion ofholding given out to others for cultivation. Information about area rented out was also recordedfor the household s who owned land and had given the entire holdlng to others for cultivation

B . If the household was engaged in household industry, the nature of the industry and the number of themonths in a year it was conducted and

C . Number ofmembers of the household and any hired workers pursuing household cultivation, householdindustry, or both these activities .

Part- II was filled in from Individual Sl ips of the persons resid ing in that household .

Table B-X conta ins information on sampled households which have been divided into the following fourcategor ies

(i) engaged neither in cultivation nor in household industry(i i) engaged in cultivation only

(i i i) engaged in household indus try only ; and

(iv) engaged both in cultivation and household industry.

The number of households given in column3 ifmultipl ied by 5 will not tally with that given in the PrimaryCensus Abstract, because the schedules relating to institutions were not taken into account for drawing the sample.

In Table B-XI the sampled households , engaged in cultivation, have been class ified by interest in land ands ize of land cultivated . T his Table has been prepared for rural and urban areas separately. Interest in land is ofthe following three types

(i) owned or held from Government

(ii) held from p r ivate persons or institutions for payment in money, k ind or share and

(i i i) partly owned or held from Government , and partly from pr ivate persons for payment in money,k ind or share.

These types of interest in land have been cros s - tabulated by difi'

erent s izes of land- holdings .

TableB-XII class ifies the cultivating households by ( 1) s ize of land cultivated, and (2) number of family and

hired workers engaged in cultivation . Sex break- up of the family workers has also been given.

Table B-XIII shows the distr ibution of sampled households engaged both in cultivation and householdindustry, into different sizes of land holding, separately for rural and urban areas of the Distr ict. Household industries have been divided into Major Groups according to

“Indian Standard Industr ial C lassification (Annex ure A) .

TableB-XIV has been prepared into two parts , separately for total, rural andurban population of theDistr ict .InPart-Athe households have been distributed by nature of household industry and number of persons engaged intothe following five siz e groups

(i) 1 person(ii) 2 persons( i ii) 3 to 5 persons(iv) 6 to 10 persons ; and(v) more than 10 persons .

T his part gives data up to Major G roups , whi le Part- B gives the distr ibution up to Minor G roups . Col . 2 givesdescription of the indus try.

TableB-XV is similar to Table B-XII, but relates to such households as were engaged s imultaneous ly in cultivation and household industry.

D —SERIES MIGRATION TABLES

Six Tables were prepared on this subject M igration has been inferred from the place of birth, a quest ionasked from each individual dur ing the 1 961 - census . Two all ied questions were whether the birth place was a ruralor urban area, and the durat ion of res idence at the place of enumeration if born elsewhere.

In this book only one Table has been included the other Tables are to be found in Part II-C (n) of the

Punjab Census Report.

Table D-II p resents the figures for persons born ( 1) at place of enumeration, (2) elsewhere in theDistr ict,(3) in other Distr icts of the State, (4) in other States of India, and (5) in other countries . Births have been class ified into rur al and urban areas . This information when studied with the place of enumerat ion sheds an interest inglight on the movement of population from vil lages to towns and vice versa .

E— SERIES HOUSING TABLES

Pr ior to 1961 - census , the preparation of houselists differed from State to State s ince the main idea was toprepare the framework for conducting the census . In the 1 961 - census , one uniform pattern for houselist has beenadopted. In the houselist, data on hous ing such as mater ial of wall , roof, number of rooms , the uses to wh ich they are

put, as well as data relating to establishments such as the names of the establ ishments and the products p roduced,number of persons work ing, andkind of fuel and power used andnumber ofmales and femal es l iving therein in case itwas used as dwelling, was collected . Five Tables have been prep ared in this ser ies from the data so collected . TablesB I andE-HI have been pr epared on full count and the other three Tables on 20 per cent samp les out of the dwellings .

Table E- IH, which g ives the number of workshop s and factor ies in each industry by k ind of fuel and s ize of employment, has not been given here for want of space. Instead, a running statement, showing the number of establ ishmentsin each industry for each vill age and town has been given. Industr ies have been shown according to Code numbersof the

Indian Standard Industr ial Class ificat ion” reproduced at Annexure ‘A ’

. Other Tables present data for theDistrict and its Tahsils for total, rural and urban areas, separately, as well as for towns with a populat ion of or

more. Urban figures of each Tahs il are inclus ive of town figures, if any shown thereunder .

TableE-I shows the distr ibution of census houses according to theuse they are put to. C0 1 . 4 gives the numberof vacant houses

” which are found vacant at the time of houselisting.

In the earl ier censuses the census house was defined as a dewll ing with a separate main entrance. In the

1 961 - census the concept of“ census house” was made broad as to cover any

s tructure or part of a structure inhabitedor vacant, or a dwell ing, a shop , a shop - cum- dwell ing or a place of bus iness , workshop, school, etc . , with a separateentrance.

"

TableE-II prepared on 20 per cent sample shows the distr ibut ion of census households l iving in census housesaccording to their tenure s tatus . Houses l ived in by the owners were classed as

owned” and the houses l ived in anyother capacity were shown as

rented .

Table E—IV has been prepared from a 20 per cent sample and distr ibutes the houses according to the predominent mater ial going into the construction of walls and the roofs .

Where a house cons isted of separate structures , each of different mater ials, themater ial out ofwhich thewallsof themain bed- rooms had been built, was recorded . T he roofs were class ified on the same bas is . In case ofmultistoreyed buildings, the intermediate floor or floors have been taken as the roofs of the lower floors .

Table E-V has al so been prepared on 20 per cent sample, and shows the distr ibut ion of households accordingto number of rooms occupied by them, such as no regular room, one room, two rooms , three rooms , four rooms , andfive rooms or more. T he number of persons compr is ing the households have also been given according to the numberof rooms they occupied .

SPECIAL TABLES FOR SCHEDULED CASTES AND SCHEDULED TRIBES

T he Constitution of India has provided Special safeguards for the members of the Scheduled Castes and

Pres ident of India has notified the Castes which fall in the l is t of Scheduled Castes for this purpose. This list hasbeen g iven in the explanatory note to Table C- VIII above. Hence i t has been found des irable to give information inregard to these castes separately, though they have been included in the general population Tables .

According to the Pres idential Order referred to above the Scheduled Tr ibes are found in this State only inLahaul Spit i Distr ict. Similar Tables have also been prepared for them and may be found in the State CensusReport, Part V

-A, andDistr ict Census Handbook for Labanl Spiti .

Table SCT- I class ifies into workers and non-worker s the number of each Scheduled Caste g iving furtherdetails according to nine industr ial categor ies of workers . Since ;most of the members of the Scheduled Castes areengaged in special types of occupations , such as tanning and cur ing of hides and sk ins and

scavenging”

number of persons following these occupations have also been given under cols . 27 to 30.

Table SCT - II presents data for each caste according to age andmar ital status . The age groups adopted are0— 14, 1 5— 44 , and

Table SCT- III has been prepared in two parts , deal ing with urban and rural areas, respect ively. In this Tablemembers of each caste have been class ified according to educational levels .

Table SCT - IV furnishes data for each caste according to rel ig ion, separately for rural and urban areas of the

Distr ict. Members of the Scheduled Castes can only be either H indus or Sikhs, so their rel igion-wise break-up is

confined to these two religions .

Table SCT -V has been prepared on 20 per cent sample fromthe households, showing their distr ibution accor

ding to interes t in land cul tivated and Size of operational holdings .

Table SC- I class ifies themember s of the Scheduled Castes who are not at work by the type of activity according to educat ional levels . Only three activities of non-workers out of the eight adopted for the general population(given in the note for Table B- IX) have been taken and others have been lumped together under

‘Others’
