PREFACE

The second phase of Census of India, 2001 viz., the population enumeration work was undertaken between 9

th and 28

th February, 2001 (both days inclusive) with

a revisional round from 15t

to 5th

March, 2001. The reference date at which the snapshot of the population is taken, was 00.00 hours of 1

5t March, 2001. Maintaining the past

tradition of releasing the population data on a provisional basis within a short time after the completion of population enumeration, the provisional population figures were compiled at the Census Directorate based on various abstracts built up at different administrative levels such as the Enumeration block, Rural/Urban Charge (Community Development BlockfTown) and the District. The entire exercise of aggregation of provisional data up to the state level was completed within a very short span of time. On the basis of these abstracts, the proVisional population figures of this state were released on 2ih March, 2001 in the form of paper-I containing provisional figures with regard to Total population, Population in the age-group 0-6 and Literate population. The provisional population figures presented in paper-1 were for State and

District levels only.

The present paper-2 of 2001,' which is second in the series of publications on provisional population totals, mainly includes provisional data on rural-urban distribution of population and its characteristics, population totals for urban agglomerations and their constituents and totals for individual cities and towns. The provisional population of outgrowths have also been shown separately as constituents

of urban agglomerations.

Since the release of final population figures may take some more time, it is hoped that the provisional data being presented in this pap,er would be useful for the planners, govemment and non-govemm~nt organisations and researchers etc.

I would like to express my deep sense of gratitude to the Registrar General and Census Commissioner, India and his team of dedicated officers for the able guidance and encouragement provided by them in giving final shape to this paper.

I am personally grateful to officers and staff of my own directorate for all the strain they took i,n preparing this paper in the shortest possible time. It is only because of their untiring effort and dedication that it has been possible to bring out this paper within such a short span of time.

INTRODUCTION

INTRODUCTION

The first publication related with Census of India 2001, based on provisional population totals, was brought out in the shape of Paper 1 of 2001 immediately after the population enumeration work was over. The following tables, showing figures relating to the size of population, population in the age group (0-6), growth rate, sex ratio, literacy and density of population for the state and its districts have been presented in this paper 1 :-

Percentage Decapal Variation in Population since 1901 for State and Districts.

Sex ratio since 1901 for State and Districts.

Population in the age-group 0-6, Number of literates and Literacy rate for State and Districts.

Apart from the above main tables, five statements, based on the above tables, maps, charts and diaQrams were also prepared, presented and dealt with in th~ portion pertaining to analysis of results in Paper 1 ~ 2001. .

The state of Bihar was bifurcated and a new state of Jharkhand came into existence with effect from 15th November, 2000. Hence Paper 1 of 2001 has been compiled and published separately for the states of Bihar (the left over portio!!) and Jharkhand. .

Since the release of· final population figures may take some more time, a further attempt has been made to present some more information on rural-urban distribution of population, based on provisional population data, through the present Paper - 2 of 2001. The detailed analysis in any of the fields must await the generation of final population figures and preparation of tables based thereon. The' present paper mainly deals with rural and urban distribution of population for the state, its districts, urban agglomerations (UAs), cities, towns and community development blocks. The trends in urbanisation in the state and districts have also been dealt with through these tables.

A few statements, based on tho above tables, have also been prepared and presented in this paper in the portion pertaining to analysis of results.

ANALYSIS OF RESULT

URBANISATION - RURAL AND URBAN COMPOSITION

It is customary to classify the population of the State and Country as rural and urban at every census. This becomes necessary in order to assess the differences in the social, economic, cultural and demographic characteristics of the population. At every census, it is usual for the Census Directorate to prepare a list of towns for the forthcoming census. For determining a place as 'urban' the criteria adopted in the 2001 Census was more or less the same as that used in the 1991 and 1981 Censuses. While all Municipal corporations, Municipalities, Notified Areas, Cantonment Boards, etc. are automatically considered as 'urban' irrespective of any other consideration, some non-municipal areas (or say villages) have been recognised as 'urban' provid~d such places satisfy the following criteria :

(i) A minimum population of 5,000

(ii) At least 75 percent of the male working population being engaged in non - agricultural pursuits, and

(iii) A density of population of at least 400 persons per sq. km.,

Places satisfying the above three criteria are identified as Census Towns or non-statutory towns by the Director of Census Operations in each State/Union Territory after approval of the Registrar General and Census Commissioner, India. The places which were treated as census towns for the first time in 1991 Census and did not satisfy the ab?ve demographic criteria this time, were declassified in 2001 Census. All such areas which have neither been notified by the State Government nor identified by the Director of Census Operations as u'rban. are rural. During the Census of India 2001, the total number of towns in the State (postdivision Bihar) stood at 130. There were 271 towns in the composite state of Bihar (or pre-division Bihar) during 1991 Census.

Urban Agglomeration

An Urban Agglomeration (UA) has been defined as a continuous urban spread compriSing a town and its adjoining urban outgrowths or two or more physically contiguous towns together with continuous, well organised urban outgrowths, if any, of such town/towns. There is considerable socio-economic inter-relationship between such physically contiguous urban units and it has been considered purposeful to group them under an urban agglomeration. During 2001 Census two more conqitions have been added for the classification of an urban area as an Urban Agglomeration:

(a) The core town or at least one of the constituent towns should necessarily be a statutory town; and

(b) The total population of all the constituents (i.e, towns and outgrowths) of an Urban Agglomeration should not be less than 20,000 (as per the 1991 Census data).

In Bihar there are 9 urban agglomerations and 111 independent'towns (109 statutory towns and 2 census towns) which means that out of the total of 130 towns, as stated above, 19 towns (16 statutory and 3 census towns) have been grouped under 9 Urban Agglomerations. The list of Urban Agglomerations with their constituents is given below:

Name of district Name of U.A. Constituents

Purba Champaran Motihari U.A. (a) Motihari (M) (b) Lauthaha (NA)

Sitamarni Sitamarhi U.A. (a) Sitamarhi (M) (b) Rajopatti Dumra-Talkhapur- Dumra (OG) (c) Dumra (NA)

Begusarai Begusarai U.A. (a) 8egusarai (M) (b) Barauni 10C Township (CT)

Bhagalpur Bhagalpur U.A. (a) Bhagalpur (M.Corp.) (b) Habibpur (CT)

Patna Patna U.A. ._ (a) Patna (M. Corp.) (b) Pataliputra Housing Colony (OG) (c) Digha-Mainpura (OG) (d) Sabazpura (OG) (e) Khalilpura (OG) (f) 8adalpura (OG) (g) Phulwari Sharif (NA) (h) Dinapur Nizamat (M) (i) Dinapur Cantt. (C8) (j) Khagaul (M) (k) Saidpura (OG)

Gaya Gaya U.A. (a) Gaya (M.Corp.) (b) Kaler (OG) (c) Paharpur (CT)

The number of Community Development Blocks in the state is 533, contained in 101 Subdivisions of 37 Districts. During the just concluded census gperations, each of these C.D. Block was treated as an independent rural charge. Similarly, each Statutory Town/Census Town was treated as an independent urban charge.

Degree of urbanisation among States and Union Territories

The urban population of India as per the 2001 provisional population totals is 285,354,954 out of which 150,135,894 are males and 135,219,060 are females. The urban population of the country as per 1991 Census was 217,611,012 of which 114,908,844 were males and 102,702.168 females. The undivided state of Bihar. in 1991, had an urban population of 11,353,012 out of which 6,156,996 were males and 5,196,016 were females. 2001 Census figures reveal that after the separation of Jharkhand, the post-division state of Bihar has an urban population of 8,679,200 compristng 4,643,278 males and 4,035,922 females.

8

Bihar, which has a rural population of 74,199,596 and an urban population of 8,679,200, continues to be predominantly rural even now. The level of urbanisation in the post-division state, as measured by percentage of population living in urban areas, is of the order of 10.47 percent as against 13.14 percent for the erstwhile composite Bihar (before creation of Jharkhand state). As per the recast figures of urban population of Bihar for 1991 Census on the present jurisdiction of the state, the percentage of urban population works out to 10.40 which is almost equal to the percentage of urban population returned during 2001 Census.

Among all the States and Union Territories of India the only state having lower degree of urbanisation than that of Bihar (10.47) is Himachal Pradesh (9.79). All other states and union territories of the country have shown higher degree of urbanisation as compared to Bihar during Census of India 2001. The degree of urbanisation in Bihar in 2001 Census is also much lower compared to the all India average of 27.78. All these will be evident from the Statement-1, placed at Annexure-X, showing Rural - Urban distribution of population - India and States/Union Territories: 2001. The degree of urbanisation among various States/UTs in the country is arranged below in descending order of their percentage urban popUlation:

. Bihar, the third largest state in terms of total population size, occupies the 11th position, its share in national urban population being only 3.04 percent. The states having larger share than that of Bihar in urban population of the country are Maharashtra (14.37 %) ,Uttar Pradesh (12.10%), Tamil Nadu ( 9.55% ), West Bengal (7.88%), Andhra Pradesh (7.19 'Yo), Gujarat (6.62 %), Karnataka (6.28%) Madhya Pradesh (5.64 %), Rajasthan (4.63 %) and Delhi (4.49%).

During 1991 Census, undivided Bihar had occupied the 9th position as far as percentage urban population content was concerned, having a share of 5.22 percent in the nation's urban population at that time. As far as the country is concerned, the percentage of urban popUlation in India, as per the 1991 Census, was 25.71 percent i.e. almost one fourth of the country's population used to reside in urban areas. This figure has gone up marginally upto 27.78 percent during 2001 Census. Between 1991 and 2001 Censuses the urban population of India has grown from 217,611,012 (the urban population figures of India including the projected population of Jammu & Kashmir for 1991) to 285,354,954 which means there has been a net addition of 67,743,942 persons

1 i

in the urban population of the country during the last decade. During the same period the total number of

people living in urban areas of Bihar has gone down from 11,353,012 to 8,679,200 on account of the division of Bihar on 15th November, 2000 (between 1991 Census and 2001 Census). On the other hand, if we recast

the urban population of Bihar in 1991 on the basis of the present territorial jurisdiction of Bihar, it would come to 6,711,785. It means that the geographical area comprising the state of Bihar in 2001 Census had an urban population of 6,711.785 in 1991. Based on this calculation the net addition to the urban population of present day Bihar between 1991 and 2001 Censuses is of the order of 1,967,415.

Degree of urbanisation among districts

Table-I at Annexure-I and Table-3 at Annexure-III show the Rural - Urban composition, percentage of

urban population to total population and decennial growth rate for the state and its 37 districts. A map of Bihar depicting rural and urban share of population among the districts is also being presented in this paper. It will be seen from Table-3 and Statement-3, placed at Annexures-III and XII respectively, that in 2001 Census the district of Patna with 41.80% urban populati<?n is the most urbanised district, followed by Munger with 27.88%. The districts of Bhagalpur with 18.59% and Sheikhpura with 15.48% occupy the 3rd and the 4th places respectively. During 1991 Census Purbi Singhbhum district with 52.69% urban population was the most urbanised district

in the composite state of Bihar, followed by Dhanbad which had 51.26% of its population living in urban areas. These two districts now form part of Jharkhand state. After the creation of Jharkhand, Patna is now the only

district in Bihar which has an urban population of more than 40 percent and can somewhat be compared to the degree of urbanisation of Purbi Singhbhum and Dhanbad districts of erstwhile Bihar state during 1991 Census. There are a few districts such as Madhubani, Banka, Kaimur, Sheohar and Samastipur where the degree of urbanisation is very low, the proportion of urban population b9ing less than even 5 percent.

Statement - 4 placed at Annexure-XIII shows the trend of urbanisation in the form of annual exponential growth rate at which the urban population is growing. While the annual exponential growth rate had declined

from 4.27 percent to 2.66 percent during 1981-91, during the same period the level of urbanisation in the state increased by 0.56 percentage points from 9.84 to 10.40. However, during 1991-2001 the annual exponential growth rate has come down from 2.66 to 2.57 and increase in urbanisation has been of the order of 0.07

perc~ntage points only. This indicates that the trend of urbanisation in the state has slowed down during the

decade 1991-2001 as compared to the previous decade 1981 - 1991.

Distribution of State's urban population in the districts

As far as the distribution of urban population of the state among its districts is concerned, it can be seen that Patna district takes the largest share i.e. 22.69%. Patna has maintained its position with regard to degree of urbanisation (41.80%) as well as share in the distribution of State's urban population. Munger district occupies second position so far degree of urbanisation is concerned (27.88%), although it is much

behind Patna and its share in urban population of the state is only 3.65 percent. The districtwise share of the State's urban population among other districts varies from 1.01 percent in Supaul to 5.47 percent in Gaya. There are a total of six districts which do not have even one percent share in the state's urban population.

These are - Sheikhpura, Khagaria, Madhepura, Banka, Kaimur and Sheohar. On the basis of 1991 Census figures also, the present day districts of Sheikhpura, Khagaria, Banka, Kaimur and Sheohar would have had less than 1 percent share each of the state's total urban population while the share of Madhepura district would have been just more than 1 percent

The districtwise share of state's urban population rn terms of p'ercentage can be seen from the statement

given pelow:

Urban decadal growth rate

The growth rates for the total population of the state and districts have already been discussed at length in Paper-I of 2001. In this paper, column 6 of Table-3, placed at Annexure-III, shows the decennial growth rates of the population (Total, Rural & Urban) during 1991-2001 in respect of the state and its 37 districts. A look at this column reveals that during the decade 1991-2001 the total, rural and urban populations of the state have registered decadal growth rates of 28.43%, 28.33% and 29.31% respectively. The corresponding growth rates in total, rural and urban populations during the decade 1981-91 were 23.38%, 22.61 % and 30.45% respectively. There has not been any significant difference in decadal growth rate of urban population of the state during the last two decades. It further transpires from the table that some .of the districts viz., Purba Champaran (45.04%), Purnia (40.34%), Saharsa (54.73%), Patna (43.02%), Buxar (41.79%), Kaimur (53.50%), Jehanabad (50.25%), Aurangabad (43.02%) and Nawada (46.65%) have recorded decadal growth rates of urban population of more than 40% during the decade 1991-01. On the other hand there are also a few districts such as Supaul, Madhepura, Samastipur and Begusarai which have registered negative growth rate for urban population. This has resulted also on account of the fact that a few towns of these districts have been declassified during 2001 Census as they did not satisfy the laid down criteria for being treated and continued as census towns during the present census.

The districts having higher urban growth rates as compared to the state average (29.31 %) are the following:

The probable reasons for higher growth rates in the above districts may be influx of population from rural to urban areas and expansion in territorial jUrisdiction of a few old towns. In certain cases like Buxar, Kaimur. Lakhisarai & JamuL the creation of new districts may also have added to the urban component of the population. It is well known that immediately after creation of a new district or division a number of offices are established and other related activities such as transport, communication and general trade and commerce get a boost. These may be the probable reasons for higher urban growth rates in the districts which have been created between 1991 and 2001 Censuses.

Distribution of urban population by size class

In keeping with the age old tradition of the Indian Census, during Census of India 2001 also, the urban units have been categorised into the following six different size - classes on the basis of their population in the manner indicated below;

Class

II III IV V VI

Population

"100,000 and above 50,000-99,999 20,000-49,999 10,000-19,999 5,000-9,999 less than 5,000

These same categories were used dUring 1991 Census also.

The Class I urban units are generally referred to as cities. In other words, all urban agglomerations/ towns with a population of 1 lakh and above are called city urban agglomeration / cities. According to provisional population figures of 2001 Census, there are 19 indeper]dent towns in Bihar viz., Patna (M.Corp.) Gaya (M.Corp.), Bhagalpur (M.Corp.), Muzaffarpur (M.Corp.), Dharbhanga (M.Corp.), Bihar (M), Arrah (M), Purnia (M), Katihar (M), Munger (M), Chapra (M), Sasaram (M). Dinapur Nizamat (M), Saharsa (M), Hajipur (M), Dehri (M), Bettiah (M), Siwan (M) and Motihari (M) with populations of "1 lakh and above and these are being treated as cities. Further, as already stated earlier, there are 9 Urban Agglomerations in the state out of which 7 UAs qualify to be treated as City Urban Agglomerations since their provisional population is 1 lakh and above. These UAs are Patna UA, Gaya UA, Bhagalpur UA, Purnia UA, Katihar UA, Motihari UA and Begusarai UA. Their constituent units have been indicated in Table-6 placed as Annexure-VI.

The UAs/Cities with population of 1 lakh and above have further been sub-classified into seven sub-classes - M1 to M7 - depending on the population size of the UA/City/Town concerned. These are as follows .

M1 M2 M3 M4 M5 M6 M7

100,000 - 199,999 200,000 - 299,999 300,000 - 499,999 500,000 - 99Sl,999 1,000,000 - 1,999,999 2,000,000 - 4,999,999 5,000,000 and above

From Table-6 it transpires that in Bihar the UAs/Cities/Towns fall in the following sub-classes only:

M5 (1,000,000 - 1,999,999) 1. Patna UA

M3 (300,000 - 499,999) 1. Gaya UA 2. Bhagalpur UA 3. Muzaffarpur (M.Corp.)

15

M2 (200,000 - 299,999) 1. Dharbhanga (M.Corp.). 2. Bihar (M) 3. Arrah (M)

M1 (100,000 - 199,999) 1. Purnia UA 2. Katihar UA 3. Motihari UA 4. Begusarai UA 5. Munger (M) 6. Chapra (M) 7. Sasaram (M) 8. Saharsa (M) 9. Hajipur (M) 10. Dehri (M) 11 . Bettiah (M) 12. Siwan (M)

None of the UAs/Cities in Bihar belongs to M7, M6 or M4 category.

In Table-6, the UAs and independent cities and towns are arranged by descending order of their population in each size-class. Within UAs, however, the constituent units (including outgrowths) have been arranged in their regular order and not in descending order of population of these constituent units. Figures in respect of constituent units have also been presented along with the respective Urban Agglomeration. The constituent units of such UAs have not been repeated in other size-class in which they may independently fall according to their population. In case the constituent unit (s) of an UA tall (s) in different districts, the name of the district was to be indicated in column 3 against the consituent unit (s). However, in the state of Bihar, such a situation does not exist. The items on which data has been presented in this table are Population by sex, Percentage decadal growth rate for 1991-2001, Sex ratio and Literacy rate by sex. The growth rate of a size class or of towns refers to the growth of population according to the size-class of the towns in the 1991 Census in respect of the decade 1991-2001.

It will also be seen from the Table - 6 that the size class I towns registered higher decadal growth rate in population (68.75%) as compared to other size class towns. In tact, among class I towns, the sub class M5 (population between 1,000,000-1,999,999) has registered a growth rate of 55.27 percent. This sub class consists of only one Urban Agglomeration viz., Patna UA comprising 5 constituent towns and 6 urban outgrowths. Further, due to upgradation of some cla~s II towns of 1991 Census to class I towns (as a result of increase in their population) during 2001 Census. the decadal growth rate of M1 sub class towns (population between 100,000-199,999) has risen substantially (129.61%). Negative growth rate in sub class M2 (population between 200,000-299,999) may be attributed to the fact that some of the towns belonging to this category in 1991 Census have subsequently been upgraded in higher sub classes during 2001 Census. In fact, apart from size class I towns, only size class III towns have shown a positive decadal growth rate (23.73%). The other three size class towns - size class II, IV and V - have registered negative decadal growth rates. The plausible reasons for negative growth rates have already been discussed above. The size class III contains as many as 65 towns. There is no size class VI town in the state of Bihar.

Sex ratio, as returned in the present census, is the lowest (861 females per thousand males) in size class I towns', while it is highest (888 females per thousand males) in size class V towns. The sex ratio is, however, adverse to females in all size class of towns. So far literacy rate in various size class of towns is concerned, it IS evident from Table-6 that the literacy rate is highest (77".38%) in towns belonging to size class I while the literacy rate is lowest (62.16%) in towns belonging to size class IV. The same trend is observed in case of male and female literacy rates separately also. The male literacy rates are comparatively much higher than female literacy rates in all size class of towns, the difference varying between 15 percentage points (size class I) to 22 percentage points (size class IV).

Table-7 placed at Annexure-IX shows the growth of urban population during the decades 1981-91 and

1991-01. After bifurcation of erstwhile Bihar state and creation of the new state of Jharkhand, the number

of urban agglomerations, statutory towns and census towns, according to the Census of India 2001, is as

shown below :

Urban Agglomerations

Statutory Towns

Census Towns

Bihar

125

Jharkhand

In the post-division Bi~ar, the number of statutory towns is comparatively much more than in the newly

created state of Jharkhand. On the other hand, number of census towns (non-statutory towns) is much higher

in Jharkhand as compared to Bihar. The number of urban agglomerations is slightly more in Jharkhand as

compared to the state of Bihar.

From Table-7, it can be seen that the number of UAs has risen from 7 in 1991 (recast figures for

Bihar according to present territorial jurisdiction) to 9 in 2001 Census. The number of independent towns has

registered a decrease. There are19 such towns in Bihar which are constituent units of Urban Agglom,:rations

in 2001 Census. While Class I and III UAsfTowns have shown an increase in their numbers, the numbers of

class II UAsfTowns and Class IV, V and VI towns have gone down. 10 fact, there is no class VI town in

the State of Bihar during 2001 Census.

It will further be seen from Table-7 that class I Towns/UAs account for 59.31 percent of the total urban

population of the state as against their share of 45.45 percent in state's urban population during 1991 Census.

The percentage share of Class II UAsfTowns and Class III, IV, V and VI towns In state's urban population has

registered a decrease during the decade. The population in class I Urban Agglomerations/Cities has shown increase

at a faster rate (35.95%) than the towns in other size classes. The comparatively low growth rates in some size

class of towns may be partly due to movement of towns from lower size class to higher size class.

For the convenience of data users the Total population, Child population in the age-group 0-6 and

Literate population by sex for all independent cities and towns, arranged in alphabetical order, have been presented

in Appendix-1 to Table-S, placed at Annexure-VII.

It would be evident from Appendix-2 to Table-5, placed at Annexure-VIII, that 11 towns (3 statutory

and 8 census towns) of 1991 Census no longer continue as towns during 2001 Census. Three statutory ·towns

have been denotified by the state Govt. authorities. Eight census towns have been declassified by the

Censu~ organisation since they did not fulfill the three laid down criteria for being continued as census towns

during 2001 Census. None of the towns of 1991 Census has been merged with any other town during the

present Census.

Further, statement - 2 placed at Annexure - XI reveals that there are 130 towns (125 statutory

towns and 5 census towns) in Bihar during 2001 Census as against 138 (127 statutory towns and 11 census

towns) at the time of 1991 Census (on ~he basis of recast figures for Bihar according to the present territorial

jurisdiction).

SEX RATIO IN DISTRICTS AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCKS

Table - 1, placed at Annexure - I, presents data for population, child population in the age group 0-6 and literate population by sex for state, district, UAicity/town for 2001 Census.

Table - 2 at Annexure - II also presents the same data items as in Table - 1 mentioned above but for the total, rural and urban areas at the district and community development block level. The community development block is a very important administrative unit in the state and, as practiced during the earlier Censuses, the community development blocks have been treated as rural Charges at the time of Census of India 2001 also. There are two types of community development blocks in the state - first, which contain some urban area also within their territory and second, which contain only rural areas within their jurisdiction. For those community development blocks which contain urban components also, the data for total, rural and urban areas at the C.D. Block level have been furnished in Table - 2 along with similar data for the district. For those C.D. Blocks which do not have any urban component, the relevant data have been presented only for rural areas and no mention has been made of either urban area or total area against their names .

Sex ratio, which is defined as number of females per thousand males, is one of the important social parameters of the society and it indicates balance between males and females in the society.

If we recast the sex ratio figures on the basis of the present day territorial jurisdiction of the state of Bihar, it will be found that sex ratio has generally been adverse to women since 1961. The pattern of sex ratio among the total population and in the population of 0-6 age-group in various districts and C.D. Blocks within the districts can be seen from Table - 4 placed at Annexure-IV. Generally. the sex ratio of child population in the age-group 0-6 is found to be comparatively higher than the sex ratio of total population. However, in 9 out of 37 districts viz., Madhubani, Saharsa, Darbhanga, Muzaffarpur, Gopalganj, Siwan, Saran. Jehanabad and Aurangabad, the sex ratio of population in the age-group 0-6 is observed to be less than the sex-ratio of the total population. In 374 out of 533 C.D. Blocks (roughly 70% of the total no. of C.D. Blocks in the State) the sex ratio of child population in the age-group 0-6 is observed to be higher than the sex ratio of general population. In the remaining 159 C.D. Blocks situation is otherwise i.e. sex ratio is higher in the general population vis-a-vis sex ratio of child population in the age-group 0-6. Most of these C. D. Blocks are situated in the aforesaid 9 districts where, sex ratio for the district as a whole has been found to be higher in the general population vis-a-vis the child population in the age-group 0-6.

The sex ratio of community development blocks has been presented in Table- 4 placed at annexure - IV. Among all the community development blocks in the state, the twenty five C.D. Blocks having highest sex ratio in relation to total popUlation are listed below:

LITERACY RATES 'BY SEX AND RURAL-URBAN BREAK UP IN DISTRICT AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCKS

The literacy rates of the state and its districts, according to provisional population figures of 2001 Census, have been presented and discussed in detail in paper - 1 of 2001.

In this paper, the literacy rates by sex and residential status at the district and community development block level have been presented in Table-5 placed at Annexure-V.

The overall literacy rate for the state of Bihar is 47.53 percent , while the literacy for the country as a whole in 2001 Census is 65.38 percent. Out of 37 district~ in the state, there are as many as 19 districts where literacy rates have been found to be higher than the state average of 47.53. The district of Patna has a literacy rate as high as 63.82 percent, close[y followed by Rohtas (62.36%) and Munger (60.11 %) districts. The lowest literacy rate of 31.02 percent has been registered in Kishanganj district during 2001 Census. [f the rural-urban composition of the population with reference to literacy is considered, it can be seen from Table - 5, placed at Annexure - V, that 72.71 percent population has been returned as literate in urban areas of Bihar while only 44.42 percent has been found to be literate in the rural areas.

The twenty five best performing C.D. Blocks (inc[uding those C.D. Blocks which have some urban area within their jurisdiction also) of the state in terms of literacy rates are listed below :

CITY (HAVING ONE MILLION PLUS POPULATION)

Patna, the headquarters of the district as well as the capital of the state, is the largest city in Bihar, having a population of million plus (more than 10 lakhs) as per the provisional population figures of 2001 Census. The position of Patna among the cities of India, so far as population is concerned, is quite low. The city has a glorious past and can boast of a very rich cultural heritage. In the early nineteenth century Buchanan Hamilton (1807-14) estimated its population at 312,000. At the Census of 1872, however, the population actually returned was 158,900 only. It seems that there were large omissions at this Census and the actual number was perhaps more. At the next Census (1881) also. the population returned was 170,654 only. Between 1881 and 1921 the population of Patna was almost continuously on the decline mainly due to decrease in the riverborne trade and. perhaps, due to repeated epidemics of plague. The population recorded during the Census of 1911 was 136.153 which marked a slight increase over the 1901 population of 134,785. but the 1901 figure waS admittedly low because of the virulent plague which was raging at the time of Census. A recount made six months later disclosed the population of this town as 153,739. In 1921 the population of Patna was at its lowest (119,976). It had continued to fall in the decade 1911-21 inspite of the fact that the New Capital area had been set up consequent upon designation of the city as the capital of the newly created Bihar Province. Perhaps the figures of 1921 were, to some extent. affected by the Non-Co-operation Movement also. Since 1921. however. the city has witnessed a steady growh In 1931 its population stood at 159,690, an increase of over 33 percent, attributable mainly to the rapid development of the New Capital area and Bankipur area, extension of the University and large influx of immigrants. In the following decade (1931-41) also, the increase continued uninterrupted but at a slower pace (23 per cent). High decadal increase occurred in 1941-51 when the population increased by 44.33 percent. This naturally reflected the rapid expansion of several Government departments and semi-Government agencies no less than the beginnings of a developing urban economy and expansion of trade and commerce in the post-war and post,independence era. A~ sizeable population of displaced persons from West Punjab and East Bengal must have contributed substantially to the high rate of increase. In the decade 1951-61. the trend had been maintained though the rate of percentage increase had gone down to 28.61. In absolute numbers, however, the increase in the decade 1951-61 was not much less than in 1941-51 (source: General Report, Bihar, 1961 Census). The rate of growth of population in the decade 1961-71 was more or less the same as in the previous decade ~hough Patna City was upgraded to the status of Municipal Corporation. However, the decade 1971-81 had shown highest decadal increase in the 20th century when population of Patna City increased by 64.14 percent. This reflected the rapid extension of the Municipal jurisdiction as many rural areas got merged in the city area. The percentage decadal variation during 1981-91 was significantly low. That the rate was not higher is presumably due to the fact that Patna owed its importance mainly to its being an administrative and educational town. It 9an hardly bo~st of any significant development in industrial or commercial sector during the deca,de.

During the present decade i.e. in 1991-2001, the city of Patna has again shown comparativ~ly higher decadal growth rate (50.12%). In 1911. the geographical area of Patna was mentioned as only 23.04 km2 while it has increased to 99.45 km2 in 2001 Census.

At the 1961 Census •. the concept of Town Group was adopted to obtain a broad picture relating to urban spread. This was defined in 1971 with the concept of 'Urban Agglomeration' to obtain better feed back in regard to urban contiguity, processes and trends of urbanisation and other related matters. This concept, without any modification or change, has remained operative in all successive Censuses as already explained in beginning paragraphs of this paper.

In several areas around a core city or statutory town. fairly large and well recognised railway colony, university campus, military camp etc. would have come up. Even if such places are lying outside the statutory limits of the Corporation, Municipality or Cantonment ~tc., in most ot the cases they fall within the revenue limits of the village(s) which is (or are) contiguous to the town. Each such individual area by itself may not satisfy the minimum population limit to qualify it to be treated as an independent urban unit but may deserve to be clubbed with the town as a continuous urban spread. Such areas have been termed as 'Outgrowths' (OGs)

and reckoned alognwith the town. As already defined earlier, such town, together with its outgrowth(s), is treated as integrated urban area and is designated as an 'Urban Agglomeration'.

Patna Urban Agglomeration is the mqst important agglomeration in the state ot Bihar and its population

is more than 10 lakhs (million plus) according to provisional population figures of Census of India 2001.

The population of Patna Urban Agglomeration and its decadal growth ra,te during various decades (on the present jurisdiction) have be~n shown in the statement presented below :
