INTRODUCTION
A ‘Building’ is generally a single structure on the ground. Usually
a structure will have four walls and a roof. Sometimes it is made up of
more than one component unit which are used or likely to be
used as dwellings (residences) or establishments such as shops,
business houses, offices, factories, workshops, work sheds, Schools,
places of entertainment, places of worship, godowns, stores etc. It is
also possible that building which have component units may be used
fora combination of purposes such as shop-cum-residence, workshop-
cum-residence, office-cum-residence etc. But in some areas the very
nature of construction of houses is such that there may not be any
wall. Such is the case of conical structures where entrance is also
provided but they may not have any walls. Therefore, such of the
conical structures are also treated as separate buildings.

5. 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.

6. STATE

set of political institutions, ruled by a government through laws
conformance to which is imposed by force (if necessary) in the common
interest. Whereas the term 'state' emphasizes a self-governing legal and
political entity, 'nation' emphasizes a particular community of people

7. with shared culture and history, and 'country' the physical dimensions
and boundaries of a geographical area.

CONCLUSION
The Census of India 2001, has admittedly thrown up important statistics
concerning the population of the country first and foremost is our population crossing
the one billion (or100 crore) mark an asset in some sense and an are of concern in
many other ways. The pace of population growth saw a slowing down during 1991-
2001. Number of persons living in urban areas also rose to 286 million in 2001 census
constituting 27.8% of the population.
Next important highlight of one is to choose is the sharp decline in child sex ratio (-
06) from one census to another the child sex ratio us the proportion of girls to 1000 boys
in the age group 0-6 years in 1981 the child sex ratio has been 962 which declined to
945 in 1991 census and then to 927 in 2001 census in some states especially in
Haryana Punjab Himachal Pradesh and Gujarat etc. the decline have been sharper.
This eye opening revelations on decline child sex ratio attributed among other reasons
to preference of male child in some sections of the Indian society and consequent sex
selective pre natal feticides shocked the country forcing many to take preventive action.
On the literacy font, due mainly to the concerted efforts of the government, the
male literacy rate in country crossed 75% mark and the female literacy rate the 50%
mark. A significant feature is the fall in the absolute number of female illiterates in the
country from 200 million is 1991 to 193 in 2001 census. Among the total number of
literates, proportion of those educated up to Primary level has been about 55.6% in
2001; surprise some to learn that there were at least 2,351 villages in the country in
2001 with population above 100 persons, which do not have even a single female
literate.

22. In the economic front and important development as revealed by census 2001 has
been the decline in the growth of workers in agricultural sector between 1991-2001. As
India is growing and diversifying its economy, more workers find workers in the non-
agricultural sector, helping it to grow. Spread of education, in different corners of the
country, is a vehicle used by the people in pursuing vocation in areas other than
agriculture. Substantial growth in number of female workers has been another shining
example of women’s empowerment.
Many such instances are revealed when one sifts through the huge information
collected in Census 2001. census organization on its part is committed to present the
results and develop new products allowing users to examine the census data from a
closer quarter than develop new products allowing users to examine the Census data
from a closer quarter than ever had been possible using computing technology and the
power of the Geographic Information System (GIS). The results and the findings are
always for the benefit of our fellow countrymen.
