MOTIF
Pangong Lake
Situated at a height of about 13,900 ft, the name Pangong is a derivative of the Tibetan word
Banggong Co meaning "long, narrow, enchanted lake". One third of the lake is in India while the
remaining two thirds lies in Tibet, which is controlled by China. Majority of the streams which fill the
lake are located on the Tibetan side. Pangong Tso is about five hours drive from Leh in Ladakh region
of Jammu & Kashmir. The route passes through beautiful Ladakh countryside, over Chang La, the
third highest motorable mountain pass (5289 m) in the world. The first glimpse of the serene, bright
blue waters and rocky lakeshore remains etched in the memory of tourists. There is a narrow ramp-like
formation of land running into the lake which is also a favorite with tourists. During winter the lake
freezes completely, despite being saline water. The salt water lake does not support vegetation or
aquatic life except for some small crustaceans. However, there are lots of water birds. The lake acts as
an important breeding ground for a large variety of migratory birds like Brahmani Ducks, are black
necked cranes and Seagulls. One can also spot Ladakhi Marmots, the rodent-like creatures which can
grow up to the size of a small dog. Pangong Tso lies on the Sino-Indian Line of Actual Control and
hence requires an Inner Line Permit. Most of the lake is in Chinese-controlled territory. Owing to
Pangong’s proximity to the border, tourists are only allowed to visit the lake upto the Spangmik village.
For the hardcore adventure lovers, there is a camping site on the shore of Pangong. But do remember
that the weather tends to get harsh after dusk. The place is a photographers’ delight and camping is the
only option if you wish to see the sunset and the sunrise. The place is under consideration for inclusion
in Ramsar Convention for the conservation of wetlands. When it happens, Pangong Tso will be the first
trans-boundary wetland in South Asia under the convention. The lake has become a star attraction
after being featured in the Rajkumar Hirani’s blockbuster 3 idiots. On October 20, 1962, Pangong Tso
saw military action during the Sino-Indian border conflict. Pangong Tso is still a delicate border point
along the Line of Actual Control and for security reasons

FOREWORD
The District Census Handbook (DCHB) is an important publication of the Census Organization
since 1951. It contains both Census and non Census data of urban and rural areas for each District.
The Census data provide information on demographic and socio-economic characteristics of
population at the lowest administrative unit i.e. of each Village and Town and ward of the District.
The Primary Census Abstract (PCA) part of this publication contains Census data including data on
household amenities collected during 1st phase of the Census i.e. House Listing and Housing Census.
The non Census data presented in the DCHB is in the form of Village Directory and Town Directory
contain information on various infrastructure facilities available in the village and town viz.;
education, medical, drinking water, communication and transport, post and telegraph, electricity,
banking, and other miscellaneous facilities. Later on, the Telegraph Services were closed by the
Government of India on 15th July, 2013. The data of DCHB are of considerable importance in the
context of planning and development at the grass-root level.
2.
In the 1961 Census, DCHB provided a descriptive account of the District, administrative
statistics, Census tables and Village and Town Directory including Primary Census Abstract. This
pattern was changed in 1971 Census and the DCHB was published in three parts: Part-A related to
Village and Town Directory, Part-B to Village and Town PCA and Part-C comprised analytical
report, administrative statistics, District Census tables and certain analytical tables based on PCA
and amenity data in respect of Villages. The 1981 Census DCHB was published in two parts: Part-A
contained Village and Town Directory and Part-B the PCA of Village and Town including the SCs
and STs PCA up to Tahsil/Town levels. New features along with restructuring of the formats of
Village and Town Directory were added. In Village Directory, all amenities except electricity were
brought together and if any amenity was not available in the referent Village, the distance in broad
ranges from the nearest place having such an amenity, was given.
3.
The pattern of 1981 Census was followed by and large for the DCHB of 1991 Census except the
format of PCA. It was restructured. Nine-fold industrial classification of main workers was given
against the four-fold industrial classification presented in the 1981 Census. In addition, sex wise
population in 0-6 age group was included in the PCA for the first time with a view to enable the data
users to compile more realistic literacy rate as all children below 7 years of age had been treated as
illiterate at the time of 1991 Census. One of the important innovations in the 1991 Census was the
Community Development Block (CD Block) level presentation of Village Directory and PCA data
instead of the traditional Tahsil/Taluk/PS level presentation.
4.
As regards DCHB of 2001 Census, the scope of Village Directory was improved by including
some other amenities like banking, recreational and cultural facilities, newspapers & magazines and
`most important commodity’ manufactured in a Village in addition to prescribed facilities of earlier
Censuses. In Town Directory, the statement on Slums was modified and its coverage was enlarged
by including details on all slums instead of ‘notified slums’.
5. The scope and coverage of Village Directory of 2011 DCHB has been widened by including a
number of new amenities in addition to those of 2001. These newly added amenities are: PrePrimary School, Engineering College, Medical College, Management Institute, Polytechnic, Nonformal Training Centre, Special School for Disabled, Community Health Centre, Veterinary
Hospital, Mobile Health Clinic, Medical Practitioner with MBBS Degree, Medical Practitioner with
no degree, Traditional Practitioner and faith Healer, Medicine Shop, Community Toilet, Rural
Sanitary Mart or Sanitary Hardware Outlet in the Village, Community Bio- gas, Sub Post Office,
Village Pin Code, Public Call Office, Mobile Phone Coverage, Internet Cafes/ Common Service
Centre, Private Courier Facility, Auto/Modified Autos, Taxis and Vans, Tractors, Cycle-pulled
Rickshaws, Carts driven by Animals, Village connected to National Highway, State Highway, Major
District Road, and Other District Road, Availability of Water Bounded Macadam Roads in Village,
ATM, Self-Help Group, Public Distribution System (PDS) Shop, Mandis/Regular Market, Weekly
Haat, Agricultural Marketing Society, Nutritional Centers (ICDS), Anganwadi Centre, ASHA
1
(Accredited Social Health Activist), Sports Field, Public Library, Public Reading Room, Assembly
Polling station, Birth & Death Registration Office. In the Town Directory, seven Statements
containing the details and the data of each Town have been presented viz.; (i) Status and Growth
History of Towns, (ii) Physical Aspects and Location of Towns, (iii) Civic and other Amenities, (iv)
Medical Facilities, (v) Educational, Recreational & Cultural Facilities, (vi) Industry & Banking, and
(vii) Civic & other amenities in Slums respectively. CD Block wise data of Village Directory and
Village PCA have been presented in DCHB of 2011 Census as presented in earlier Census.
6. The data of DCHB 2011 Census have been presented in two parts, Part-A contains Village and
Town Directory and Part-B contains Village and Town wise Primary Census Abstract. Both the Parts
have been published in separate volumes in 2011 Census.
7.
The Village and Town level amenities data have been collected, compiled and computerized
under the supervision of Ms. T. N. Bindhyeshwari, IAS, Director of Census Operation, Chandigarh.
The task of Planning, Designing and Co-ordination of this publication was carried out by Dr. Pratibha
Kumari, Assistant Registrar General (SS) under the guidance & supervision of Dr. R.C. Sethi, ExAddl. RGI and Shri Deepak Rastogi, present Addl.RGI, Shri A.P. Singh, Deputy Registrar General
(Map) provided the technical guidance in the preparation of maps. Shri A.K. Arora, Joint Director of
Data Processing Division under the overall supervision of Shri M.S. Thapa, Addl. Director (EDP)
provided full cooperation in preparation of record structure for digitization and validity checking of
Village and Town Directory data and the programme for the generation of Village Directory and
Town Directory including various analytical inset tables as well as Primary Census Abstract (PCA).
The work of preparation of DCHB, 2011 Census has been monitored in the Social Studies Division. I
am thankful to all of them and others who have contributed to bring out this publication in time.

PREFACE
The preparedness of District Census handbook (DCHB) is an outcome of State and
Centre coordination after compilation of Village and town level data at the CD block level
and town level. The publication of District Census Hand Book (DCHB) is in practice since
1951. However, in Jammu & Kashmir state as no Census conducted during 1951 & 1991 due
to the conditions prevailing then.
The District Census Handbook has two segments - Part A and Part B. Part A deals
with the village & town directory data and Part B primarily deals with Primary Census
Abstract of each village and town of the District. Since 2001, the District Census Handbooks
are available in electronic format. Part B of 2011 published in 2015.
Manuscript of this book has been prepared with wholehearted cooperation from staff
of this office. I am grateful to all of them especially the Jr./Sr. Consultants for their valuable
contribution in the accomplishment of this task.
I am deeply grateful to Dr. C. Chandramouli, IAS the Registrar General and Census
Commissioner, India, New Delhi for the valuable guidance and advice at every step till the
finalization of this handbook. Collection, compilation of data, and drafting of DCHB Part A

HISTORY AND SCOPE OF DISTRICT CENSUS HANDBOOK
The District Census Handbooks, sometimes called mini district gazetteers, were published for
the first time in 1951 as a part of the Census publication programme in almost in all the states of India
except Jammu and Kashmir. The reasons being tribal invasion of 1947-48 no census could be
conducted in 1951.
The publication of District Census Handbook series fulfilled a long felt immense need of the
district officials as also of data users. The Handbook provided not only the data in the form of Primary
Census Abstract but also included a sufficient account of the district and its various aspects. It also
provided a vast magnitude of census and non-census data at the grass root level. The data on
communication, educational facilities, medical and health amenities, and availability of drinking
water, electricity and other basic civic amenities available in each village and town of the district is
also incorporated in it. Consequently, the Handbook has been found to be of immense utility to all the
departments of the State government for planning and development at all grass-root levels. With the
introduction of single line administration at the district level, the utility and importance of these
publications for constant use and reference by the district level officers associated with the
development of district has increased enormously.
In Jammu and Kashmir, Census of India, 1991 was yet another decennial exercise, which
could not be conducted due to disturbance and turmoil in the state. Thus, District Census Handbook,
1991 was also a casualty. This created a vacuum in data collection and their publication, which
adversely affected district level planning and development. The planners and other data users were
handicapped and were constrained to depend on 1981 District Census Handbooks. The present
Handbook will meet the requirement of minimum needs programme set forth by the Planning
Commission. The publication has latest available data on amenities, land use pattern and other
infrastructural statistics for each village and town of the district so as to serve as a ready reference
material for planners and administrators for assessment of past achievements and formulation of new
programmes of development at various levels.

BRIEF HISTORY OF THE DISTRICT
In ancient times the present Leh (Ladak ) district was a part of Greater Ladakh spread over
from Kailash Mansarover
to Saswaat (Dardistan).
The greater Ladakh
thedomain of Tibet or its influence Not much information is available
of Ladakh. However, references
about the place
was either under
about the ancient history
and its neighborhood
in Arab , Chinese
th
and Mongolian histories give an idea that in the 7 century A.D fierce wars were fought by
Tibet and China in Baltistan area of the greater Ladakh in which deserts and barren mountains of
Ladakh had turned into battle fields for the warring armies.
In the 8th century
A.D. the Arabs also jumped
into these wars and changed their sides
between china and Tibet. Around this period the ruler of Kashmir. Laltaditya conquered Ladakh. In
the 8th century A.D.
Itself, the Arabs conquered
Kashghar and established their control over the
Central Asia which embraced Islam in the 9th century A.D. Thus a buffer state came into being
between Tibet and China, terminating the hostilities between the two warring countries. The greater
Ladakh also fell to pieces.
About 3000 years ago Ladakh was perhaps in a wilderness surrounded by
Tibet,
Turkistan, and Panier beyond the Karakoram range and area of present Himachal Pradesh. With the
increasing population
and shrinking agricultural land
and pasture in these
countries
, some
people from there migrated in small groups to different directions and drifted to western Tibet
and settled in its uninhabited areas like present Zanskar, Paurik, Baltistan, etc. Some of them
advanced to the Ladakh proper and settle down there . The ancient inhabitant in Ladakh were Dards
and Indo Aryans race from down the Indus. But immigration from Tibet more than thousands years
ago largely overwhelmed the culture of the Dards and
up moped their
racial characters.
In
eastern and central Ladakh today ‘s population seems to be mostly from Tibetan origin. Buddhism
reached Tibet from India via Ladakh. The area was the stronghold of
Buddhism before Islam
reached Ladakh. A peaceful penetration of Islam was carried out by missionaries in the early 16th
century whose success was guaranteed by the early conversion of the sub rulers. Of Drass Kargil
and Suru valley, now in the Kargil district. Earlier six hundred and sixty years ago
Muslim preacher
Mir Syed Ali Hamdani had arrived in Ladakh.
, the great
He introduced Islam here and
constructed a mosque at (Shey) which was then the capital of Ladakh.
Today Muslims constitute
over 15 percent population of Leh district.
A thousand years ago before the control of Tibet’s ruler, Raja Skitde Nemagon ruled over
Ladakh, which was known as Murlay (Red country) , as most of mountains and soils in Ladakh
wears a red tinge. Some historians however, say that the word means a lowland because of its
position in comparison
to the elevated surroundings areas. In the 10th century A.D. Stikde
Nemagon along with a couple
of hundred men , invaded
Ladakh where there was no central
authority. The land was divided in small principalities , which were at war with each other.
Nemagon defeated all of them one after the other and established a strong central authority.
7
Those days Shey 15 Kms
from Leh
was the capital and Ladakh
became to be known as
Nariskarsoom , meaning a country of three provinces. The present Ladakh was divided into two
provinces while thet hird comprised Western Tibet. Towards
the end of his life the king divided
his kingdom among the three sons , each getting a province. The area of western Tibet slipped
away from the kingdom but was reunited in the 16th century A.D. by the famous Ladakhi ruler
Sengge Namgyal . Ladakh was an independent country since the middle of the 10th century.
While its political fortune ebbed and flowed over the centuries , the kingdom was at its
zenith in the early 17th century under king Sengge Namgyaal whose rule extended across Spiti
(H.P) and western Tibet upto Mayiumla beyond Mount Kailash and mansarover lake.
The rugged terrain of Ladakh was traversed for centuries by caravans carrying textiles ,
spices, raw silk, carpets , dyestuffs and narcotics stable in contrast to other lawless tribes further
west. Perhaps due to the fact that it was partly political it became to be recognized as the best trade
route between Punjab and Central Asia. On this long arduous route , Leh was the half way
destination and developed into a bustling entrepod, with merchants from far off countries
thronging its Bazars. The famous pashmina also came from the western Tibet from where it was
carried via Ladakh to Srinagar for its end product the world’s famous Pashmina shawl. Ironically,
it was the lucrative trade that attracted Gulab Singh , the ruler of Jammu , to invade the territory in
1834. Ladakh together with the neighboring provinces of Baltistan was in cooperated in the newly
created state of Jammu and Kashmir.
In the post- partition scenario, Pakistan and China illegally occupied 78,114 sq. Kms and
37,555 sq. Kms of the state respectively while the remaining part of the state acceded to India.
Pakistan also illegally gifted 5,180 sq. Kms of this area to China. In 1979 when reorganization of
the districts was carried out , the Ladakh district was divided into two full-fledged districts Leh and
Kargil. The district is predominantly
inhabited by Buddhists consisting of four sects namely,
Nigmpa, , Dukpa, Kargint and Saskia known as Red sector and Gelukrapa the reformed “yellow
sect” The aim of all the four sects in the same viz, attainment of Buddhahood or Nirvana. The red
sect has its strongholds in Hamis , Chemrey, Fiang, , Taktak and Likir are claimed by the yellow
sect. The red sect was founded by Guru Padama Sambhava and the yellow sect by Cho Avisha of
Bengal.
Leh is unique in every respect. One can enjoy the novel experience of Ladakhi culture
known for its antique touch. The art and craft of Leh (Ladakh) is as novel as people themselves. By
nature they are silent and peace loving. In the changed atmosphere now the elder flock, still present
the same figures of simplicity and sincerity.

Leh is situated between 32 to 36 degree North Latitude and 75 to 80 degrees longitude.
Ladakh lies on the rain shadow side of the Himalayan, where dry monsoon wind reaches Leh after
being robbed of its moisture in plains and Himalayan mountain the district combines the condition of
both artic and desert climate. Therefore Ladakh is often called the “COLD DESERT”
Situated on the western end of the Himalayas, the district is flanked in east by Tibet, west by
Kargil, in north by China and south by Himachal Pradesh. .The district is at a distance of 434 Kms
from Srinagar. The district is having three tehsils namely Leh ,khalsi and Nubra Comprising 111inhabited and one uninhabited villages, For administrative purposes, the Deputy Commissioner
,the district Senior Superintendent of Police , the district rural development officer and some other
senior
officers of the state in close association with Ladakh Autonomous Hill council members
look after the development regulatory functions in the district.
There are 9 CD blocks in the district and their names are as following:-

PHYSIOGRAPHY
Ladakh is a region of high mountain ranges, elevated plateaus and rocky gorges. On the
whole, the territory is a vast desert of rocks and sands and characterized by its rugged topography.
The altitude of the region increases towards the north.
The Lingzi-Tang Plateau extends from north to south over an area of 25.8Kms from east to
west upto 90 Kms .With Pangkong as the base Its altitude ranges from 5,273 meters in the south to
5,180 meters in the north . All along the northern side of the plateau, lies the range of Lokzhung
Mountains, a veritable waste-land rising to the skies.
The Kuenlun plateau lies between Lokshung and Kuenlun mountains at an altitude of
4,856.8n 0 metres. Its surface consists of hard clay at some places and sand at other places. Its level
11
varies from that of Lingzi-Tang plateau. There is 18.3 meters deep bay on this plateau. Situated on
the western end of the Himalayas, Ladakh has four major mountain ranges – the Great Himalayan,
Zanskar, Ladakh and Karakoram passing through it. Amaze of enormously high snow-capped peaks
and the largest glacier outside the polar region, dominate the terrain where valley heights range
from a mere 8000 ft to 15000 while passing upto 20000ft and peaks reaching 25000 ft. can be
seen all around . The world’s largest glacier outside the polar region, Siachen is here.
The area nearest to Leh (Ladakh) is the stock- Khangri , Massif in the Zanskar mountains ,
south of Leh. The base camps for various peaks of the Massif are about two days trek from the
village of the Stock. Among its known peaks are Stok Khangri (6150m)Mathoo-west (5950 m) and
Kantaka ( 5275m) . The much higher Konglacha peak (6700 m) lies south west of Leh and is reached
via Rumbak on the first leg of the Markha Valley trek
from stock. Many unnamed peaks in the
altitude range of 5500 meters and 6400 meters are also available for Trekking in the same region. The
entire area falls well outside the inner line or restricted area.
North of Leh , across the Ladakh range and the Nobra valley , lies the Karakoram range It
soars to a number of known peaks which are however , within the restricted area and are not freely
assessable to foreign trekkers except with special permission from the government of India. The
most prominent submits in this range which are assessable from various parts of the Nobra valley
include Saser-I(7415m) , Saser-II (7513m) and Saser-III (7495 M)
The district is having a rugged and difficult terrain. The road constructed in such an area is a
gigantic task.
DRAINAGE
Leh (Ladakh) is the land of many lakes and springs. Among the springs, the famous are the
sulphur springs of Panamic (Nobra), Chumathang and Puga of Chumathang which are famous for
early curing of joints /rheumatic disease. Many mineral springs are also found in some remote parts
of Leh. (Ladakh). People of the region use the spring water as medicine to prevent and cure
themselves from many diseases.
The important lakes which fall within the jurisdiction of Leh (Ladakh) are Pangkong lake
( 150 Kms long and 4 Kms wide ) situated at a height of 14000 ft. Tsomoriri lake a pearl shaped
lake and Tsokar ( means salty lakes) both contain large minerals deposits. Since ancient times till
the end of 1959 salt was being extracted from this particular salty lake for human consumption. Many
minerals springs are also found in some remote parts of the district.
12
The main river of the district is Indus, which flows in the North West direction between
Ladakh and Zanskar ranges. Indus enters India from Tibet and Demchok. Starting near MT. Kailash
, the Indus is joined by several major rivers like Zanskar , Suru and Shayok before it reaches
Pakistan to fall in the Arabian sea . Indus is about 560 Kms long, 10 Kms wide and 5200 metres
deep .Indus cuts Pakistan about 90 Kms west of Nanga Parbat. Farther North, between the Indus and
Shyok , its tributary runs through the Ladakh range 5800 metres and more than 300 Kms long., it
runs parallel to the Zanskar range . Indus river flows for 709 Kms in India through Jammu and
Kashmir draining 117884 sq. Kms . The water of Indus system are divided between India and
Pakistan according to the Indo-Pakistan Indus water treaty signed by the two countries in 1960 .
Indus, according to mythology, sprouts from the mouth of a lion, as is therefore known as Sengge
Chhu . Sengge (sinh in Sanskrit) means a lion and Chhu in Tibetan means a flowing water body. As
it flows down Sengge Chhu is joined by its tributaries and from the main area of habitation. The total
catchment area of Indus is 31.2 million hectare and fall in the list of major rivers of the country.
There are lot of other water resources namely tanks, , river and streams available throughout
the district among which some are still un- utilized . Many streams even in summer flow for only a
few hours a day when the ice melts.
The farmers have appreciated the modern technologies approved by the policy makers
which include gravity canals water storage tanks, artificial glaciers etc.
CLIMATE
The district endures a harsh climate on account of its geographical situations. There are
considerable daily and seasonal extremes of temperature and very marked differences at any time of
year between sun and shade temperatures. Winters are severely cold with temperature going down to
-40 C at places. The district remains land locked between November to June every year as Srinagar
Ladakh and Ladakh- Manali highway which connect the district with other parts of the country
remains closed during this period because of snow and rigorous winter. Three months witness subzero temperatures (December to February) and the rest of the months face zero degree temperature.
Winter here is long and harsh .Waterways, waterfalls and lakes freeze, and the water vapour freezes
to break into the most intricate and attractive crystal patterns. But on clear sunny days, when the
average temperature goes over to 20C, the sun can be scorching hot in its intensity and its ultra violet
rays cause deep sun burn.
13
RAINFALL:Rainfall is more than 2 inches annually and it is the melting snow in summer which sustains
life in this high arctic zone, as a result of which the landscape is desert like with aridity and low
temperatures lead to Sparse vegetation, sands dunes and even occasional storms occur.
Wind velocity in the afternoon and night is of high order resulting in heavy soil erosion with
dust storms and snow bizzards which make life
very difficult. The relative humidity is low and
ranges from 31 to 64 percent.
During the short but intense summer cultivation is sustained by melting snows and a careful
harnessing of water is essential. Ladakhis are expert irrigation engineers and construct long channels
cutting along the Granite Mountains and gravel slopes. Water is thus channeled to grow food grains.
Due to longer winter, the agriculture
season is short and
spread over
from April to
September depending upon the climate. The climate varies in different valleys of the district which
influences the period of agricultural activities, type of farming, nature and variety of crop method of
cultivation.
TYPE OF SOIL:The soil
of the district is mostly of rocks and sands. The rural development and desert
Development Agencies are aimed at bringing a green revolution in the cold desert areas. The district
would considerably
emancipate the socio economic change in dwelling of the people who are
residing at an altitude of 1300 to 1500 degree feet on a barren landscape from centuries together
in the desert region of Ladakh.
The bricks are being made of sand and the stones cut from rocks are used for raising
the
buildings. The canals for irrigation fields are made with local skill through rough land of sand and
rocks. Not a spoonful of cement has been used in their construction . It is estimated that the district
there are 28 (69 hectares) of barren cultivated land and 4406 hectares waste land. Total area sown is
10475 hectares and area sown more than once is 555 hectares . For the year 1998 the area under
high yielding variety programme is shown below

GEOLOGICAL FORMATION:‘Fundamental Gneiss’ with intrusive granite:
Crystalline rocks, granite, gneisses and Schists occupy large areas of north-west Himalayas
forming the core of Zanskar and ranges beyond in Ladakh and Baltistan. These rocks were all
regarded as igneous and were supposed to be Archaean in age. Later investigations have, however
provide that these gneisses are actually of an intrusive origin having invaded rocks of various ages
at a number of different geological periods. Dr.D.N. Wadia is of the opinion that a considerable
part of this crystalline complex is of Precambrian metamorphic origin forming the basement on
which all the subsequent geological formation rest. According to him the three chief constituents
of the Himalayan basement complex are:1. The metamorphosed sedimentary archaeans.
2. Intrusive granite and gneisses of later periods.
3. Remnants of Achaeans granites granulite’s, orthogneoisses and schists.
With regard to the distribution of the gneissoic rocks in the area. DR Wadia states that the
main crystalline development is in the north and north –east potions in the Zanskar range and the
regions beyond that is in Gilgit, Baltistan and Ladakh. It is from the circumstances of the prominent
development of the crystalline core in the Zanskar Range in continuity with the Central Himalayan
Axis, the range is regarded
as the principal continuation of the Great Himalaya chain, after its
bifurcation at Kangra. The other branch, the pir-panchal is regarded only as a minor off shoot.
North of Zanskar , the outcrop of the crystalline series becomes very wide , encompassing almost
the whole of the region in the Karakoram , with the exception of a few sedimentary tracts in central
and south –east of Ladakh. The largest occurrence of hornblende granite is in the mountains between
Astor and Deosai. Its post- Cretaceous age is definitely proved by its intrusive contact with
orbitolina limestone’s at the Burzil pass (4170 meters) .Tourmaline –granite is of relatively
15
subordinate occurrence in dykes
and pegmatite veins. Rocks of the oldest sedimentary system
occupy large tracts of Ladakh and Gilgit.
South of Ladakh, running along the Indus Valley is a band of cretaceous with ophilolites
comprising the flyshe facies as well as massif and ultra -masif volcanic rocks of the Drass volcanic
type. The former include the characteristic Hippuritic limestone’s and beds containing Cryphaea
Vesiculosa . The Cretaceous
band runs all the way from Kargil and beyond to Rupshu. The
Ladakh Cretaceous is compactly sand witched in between the wide Jurassic Triassic area to the
south –west and the Indus .Eocene belt running along the river valley to the north-east through
Leh. The south border of the belt is one of the tectonic contact with north directed thrusts.Middle
and upper Cretaceous
sediments
containing orbitolina and hippurites are met within Chitral
underlying the Tertiary Reshun conglomerate.
The thick pile of volcanic ejectments described above with intercalated sedimentary layers
and lenses of limestone’s containing
orbitolina and other foraminffers coralks and echinoids
runs from the east of astor to beyond Drass in Ladakh. The mineral chromite is associated with the
gabbro and serpitine intrusive into the series. There is a local concentration of chromite
into
workable ore-masses which would be of economic importance in a more accessible locality . This is
a north-west extension of the basal part of the much more extensive zone of Eocene volcanic and
marine sediments of the upper Indus valley from Kargil. To Haanle in the south-east Ladakh. The

Gabbro,
the Bruzil Valley, Dolerite,
and pyrozenite. masses and stock together with Bathyliths of Hornblende- granite are
injected into these rocks and have given rise to a varied suit of alternation product.
The tertiaries of Ladakh rest unconformable over gneissic and metamorphic
rocks the
base is of coarse felspathic grits and conglomerates followed by the brown calcareous and green
and purple shale’s. These Shale’s are overlain by a thick band of blue shelly limestone is
succeeded by a coarse limestone conglomerate. On either extremity of this sedimentary basin there
is a large development
igneous rocks of acid as well as extremely basic composition. They
include both contemporaneously erupted dark basalts with ash and tuff beds as well as dykes and
sills of intrusive granite and quartz and augite –por-phyries together with peribnoates and
gabbros. In the north –west prolongation of the Kargil band of Ecocene volcanoes and the Drass ,
16
there is a close association of tuffs , volcanic ash-beds
lavas and augite –porphyries with
limestones , containing Alveoline , Dictytoconoides Nummalities and Gastropods.
Peter Misch (1935,1936) while investigating the Nanga Parbat (8125 metres) recognized
the Salkhala in the form of black slates and phyllities with marble intercalation. Many granites and
gneisses are also known from the area , some of which may be older
than the Salkhala ,
matasediments forming the base for them, while others are intrusive in the Salkhalas . The older
granite and gneisses are Puga Granite , Chushol Granite , Ladakh Granite , Leh Granite etc.
A sequence roughly similar in many respects to Spiti Jurrassics are traceable in outskirts in
central and southern parts of Ladakh, resting comfortably upon the upper Triassic lime stones. The
jurrassics of Ladakh have yielded many fossils . A meager account of cretaceous system of this
region is known from its south east parts in Ripshu. These are composed of an unfossiliferous white
lime stones forming some of the
highest peaks of Ladakh. Range. Discovery of the Cretaceous
fossils grypnea- vesigulosa from Saqjna indicates the presence of Cretaceous formation in Ladakh.
FLORA AND FAUNA:Lying at the confluence of three zoogeographic realms , Paleartic ,oriental and Malayan
district’s ecosystem is possibly the most unique and by far the most fascinating in the world. With
its barren plateaus and uplands the district has a distinct alphine and faunasl variety. Several
flowering plants and a dozen important mammals . Fragrant Juniper (Shukpa) grows everywhere ,
and is used foe ceremonial and religious purposes. In late October the district valleys are a usual
delight –apricots and poplars provide a spectacular display of green , gold and rust. The greys of
chocolate brown of mountains via with the turquoise blue waters and azure blue skies to provide a
resplendent panorama of Ladakh in autumn . Over hundreds of species of birds are found in this
rugged terrain. Most of the species are classified as endangered or rare. The wild Yak is to be found
only here. Other animals include ibex, necked crane, bar-headed geese, duck and several other water
birds breed near the lake in thousands. The avid bird watcher can spend fruitful hours by
observing Bactroan magpies grey tits , chough raven ,sparrow, kite , kestrel, turkoman, rock pigeon
chukor finches buntings, larks, desert , wheatears and many more verities of birds.
The snow leopard is Ladakh’s
most rare animal. Another one that is unique is the Kiang or
the wild horse , while at the lower altitude the musk deer too is a rare sight, precious by virtue of
its expensive musk. Visitors are likely to spot many marmots , mouse hares, stone martens , red
foxes, wolves, ibex bharal and shapu during the course of their journey but the habitat of the Nyan (
big horned sheep) , chiru (Tibetan antilope famed for its fleece –Shahtoosh ) Goa, (Tibetan gazelle)
lynx pallas cat, Kiang ( wild horse) and brong dong ( wild yak ) are still outside the tourist domains.

The floristic
surveys conducted by the Kashmir University have revealed out of 611
species collected from different areas of the region , 540 species are dicot , 65 monocot and the
rest gymnosperums. The families having maximum generic distribution are composite, Cruciferae
(26) , Boraginacceae (!6) , Chimopodiaccae (13), Leguminosae , Raunculacae caryaphy elaceae,
umbellifereae ( each with 11) and Labiatee(9).
Across Zojila, on the northern side of Kashmir
Valley, the Drass and the Suru
Valleys
represents transition zone in the flora of the region. In general the alpine flora of Kashmir valley
which grows above 3300 meters is also found in this transition zone. This flora is represented
by
alpine mesophytes such as the species of D.elphenium Potentelli Leoutopodium Taraxcum Aster .
poly genum podophyllum emodi, lovetera Krishmiriana , Lotus corruiculates, Astragalus rhizan thus
rose Mostchata etc. phragmites Karka , Equisetum sp. And sonchus aleraceus have a rich growth
along the sandy banks of Drass river and its side streams.
The snow covered mountains tops of Minemarg and Gumri are covered with polygonum
affine potentilla bifurca , plendicalaris siphonatha , parasia pahistris geranam pratens, Bupleurum
longiceules stachys sercca, Brachyauam pratens Anaphils nuligea Galius borealc and some other
plants of this family. These plants are also found in the Suru Valley. Rusila and Baralacha areas . In
Rupshu area the Tibet species are found up to an altitude of 7500 metres. The plants of these
species are represented
by oxtropis
lapponica multifida. Nepeta tibetica plantaso mimima
Delphinilim brunonianum luychias macrotiza pogyonum siberiam Sedutt Tibetioum Arabis Tibetica
etc. However these plants are prostrate and have small leave growing in roselets.
At and around Leh and Nobra trees like Salix, Alba, S.dephioides populas deltoids jurtlans
regia grow along with the following plants:Acautholimon lycopodiodes, Myiracaria elegans capsell , burrapastorisd, lindelofia anchusoldes
scoplia pracalt , Echinos pefimum redowski Arvebian tibetana Iris ,Strachysa tibetica laucca
tibettia Iris ,Strachys tibetica etc.
From Zojila in the South to Choshul forest zone Ladakh has no forests worth the name
except poplars and willows which are mostly confined to river, banks and Nallah beds. The species
of trees and shrubs which are founded in the region are listed as under:Salin elegans, s.alba, S. sclewophylka, S.frangillis, populas ailba , P. enphratica, P. cauedicans,
P.Nigra, P. ciliate , P. angastifolia, Jumperus maemnoides, J. communis Myricaria prostrate ,
Aippoprae mamnoides, Rose Webbiana, Tamarix, gallica, Elaeagus noetensis, caragna pygmae ,
Ephedra, V. ulgaris, and crassifiplia
However
under the afforestation scheme of
the State Government
and the desert
development programmes of the Central department , steps are being taken in the direction of
18
encouraging the growth of some fast-growing exentic species which are being procured for other
hemo-climatic regions of the world.
Ladakh provides a natural refuge and habitat to numerous wild and game animals some of
whom belong to rare species which are found only in the most inaccessible terrains of this region.
Its Fauna is unique and precious as it comprises such animals as the Kiang , the Yak, the Ibex, the
markhor, the lynx, the snow leopard, etc. The table-lands of the Indus and the Rupshu abound
with the wild- Horse, the Hare and the Marmot. The rugged valleys and the glens are the natural
habitat of the Deer, the antelope, Wild Sheep and Wild goats of many kinds.
The following is a brief description of various kinds of game and wild animals found in the
region.
NVAN (OVIS AMMON) HODGSONT:Ovis ammon is a large sheep the male is called Nyan and the females Nyanna. It is also called
Hodgsons sheep being the largest sheep both on account of its size and weight. Nyan is famous as
the king of Ladakhi sheep. On an average the Nyom measures over 152 cms from head to tail and
over 110 cms at the shoulders , the horns being nearly 150 cms long. The sheep may weight upto
127 kgs. Its colour is greenish brown above and white under Neath. The Ammon wander all over
the region between altitude of 4200 metres and 4800 metres in search of safety and food . They are
particularly found in the Changehenmo, Rupshu, over the steep plains of Pangkong lake in the
Depsang and on the plateaus of Karakoram. Due to indiscriminate shooting however, their number
has considerable dwindled.
SHAPO (OVIS VIGNEE):Shapo is also called
Urial. It is wild sheep with twisted horns which measures about 100
cms. It is mostly found at lower altitudes such as in the Indus and Shyok valleys and at Spituk .
Khaltse and Fatula
BHARAL (OVIS NABURA):
Bharal is a beautiful and well-built sheep resembling Shapo in size and weight. The rams
carry large olive green horns over 89cms , long while the ewes have shorter horns. . Its mutton is
rated very high in deliciousness. It inhabits steep ground during summer at altitude ranging upto
5500 metres but during winter they descend to lower latitude . They are particular
Nubra and, Zanskar, Rupshu and Khalste.
19
found
in
MARCO POLO’S SHEEP (OVIS PALI) :
This is an excellent type of wild sheep found on the high plateaus of Karakorum and desang.
It compares well with Ovis Ammon in respect of its size
and weight. It was first noticed by
Morcopolo in Pamits during his travel in the 13th century . It measures 100 to 120 cms at shoulders.
It has very
long horns which generally measures up to 150 cms or more. However its long horns
could not save it from attacks by the beast of Prey.
IBEX (CAPRA SIBRICA):Ibex belongs to the category
of wild goats. It is very handsome, stoutly built animal with
long aweepinfh horns and a fine and soft fleece under its stiff hairy coat. In Ladakh, the animal is
called Satim and in Kashmiri Kel. In colour an Ibex, may be brown deep chocolate or seady cream.
The soft and warm

It weighs about 20 Kgs
. This beautiful Gazella has become very rare. Only 150 of them are
believed to exist in the region at present. It is found in the undulating plains of Rupshu and Chang
Chenmo.
CHIRU (PANTHOLOPS AHODGOSONI):The Tibetan antelope known as Chiru in Ladakh region is a highly prized deer because of its
manifold qualities. It’s under fleece called Shahtoos is an extremely delicate, warm and soft. Woolen
fiber which constitutes the raw material of the renowned Kashmiri shawl whereas its meat is very
delicious. , its skin is used for making ladies coats which fetch high prices. Unfortunately for these
20
very qualities this beautiful game animal has been most favorite target of attacks by the hunters
and consequently this species in facing near extinction.
Chiru measures 75 to 85 cms. at shoulders and weight between 40 to 50 kgs The male has
about 60 cms long horn while the female has none. Its color is usually black and brown. The chiru
is generally found in the Chang-Chenmo valley, the area known as Aksai-Chin and along the
grassy streams beds of Lingztang and in the higher reaches of the Shyok valley .
HARE (GONUS LEPUS):It is a beautiful game animal found all over Ladakh region especially is
Rupshu , Chag-
Chemmo and above the Pangkong lake. The Ladakhi, hare , otherwise well known as Khargosh else
where
has soft thick wooly fur with a blush color.. The Ladakhi name , Ribong corresponds in
meaning to its Persian equlient Khargosh , because of the ass like ears the animal possesses.
WILD YAK( BOS GRUNNILENS)
Another distinguishing feature of the fauna of Ladakh region is the existence of a strange
type of wild ox, called as Yak. Locally it is called as dong or Donkh. It is a beast of considerable
size measuring over 150 cms at shoulders and about 200 cms in length. Its weight sometimes
exceeds to 225 Kgs . The yak grows long black hair over its body which reaches down to its legs ,

used as a beast of burden in the region. The Yak mixes and even crosses with the cow the off –spring
of the union is called Zho (Male ) and Zhomo (Female).
The wild yak which is very ferocious beast occupies the table land and the plateaus of changChemmo and Aksai-Chin but at lower altitudes such as Leh it generally does not exist.
KIANG (EGUUS HEMINUS KIANG)
kiang is a wild animal resembling a mule. It has a brown and a white color and a black
mane. Through handsome in shape, it is unfit for load carrying as well as for riding. As such it is
seldom tamed. It has an interesting habit of galloping at high speed and trotting in circles’ When
it smells danger , it brays loudly , sending signals to his fellow denizens of all around. The Kiang is
found in Rupshu, Changthang and Chang Chemmo areas of the region.
21
MARMOT (ARCCTOMYS HIMALAYANUS)
Marmot is a strange little animal resembling a squirrel or a big mouse. Its size varies
between 60cm to 90cms. It has a golden or reddish brown colour with long bushy tail. In Ladakhi
region it is called as Drun or Drin. However its fur is not suitable for use as it is wiry and course.
Marmot spends long winter in burrow subsisting either on the grass and routes are on the
accumulated fat on its own body. At the sight of a dog the marmot utters shrill cries to startle him
and when the dog tries to jump at it the marmot slips into its burrow for cover. He repeats till the
dog is compelled to give up the chase in dismay. It is mostly found in Baltistan, Zojila, Drass,
Rupshu, and Kardongla.
SNOW LEOPARD ( FELIXUNCIA):
There being no lions or tigers in the Ladakh region the snow leopard is the only member of
this family. Which has adapted itself to the pecular geographical conditions of the region. It is
generally found at high altitude near the snow line in various parts of both Ladakh region and
Baltistan.
The snow leopard measures about 60 cms at shoulders with the length of about 200 cms,
from head to tail, the tail accounting for nearly half the total length of the body. As such it is smaller
in size than a tiger or even panther. It is covered with a soft woolly coat and thick fur of grey color
interspersed with black or dark grey spots. Its beautiful skin is used for making fur coat.
This wild beast of prey known as Shun, schan, sha or safad cheetah in Ladakh region and
Kashmir is feared very much by the local population as it heavily region as well.
LYNX (FELIXLYIN ISABELLINUS)
The Laynx locally known as Ee or Ech looks like a big cat measuring about 100cms. It
possesses almost the same nocturnal and preying habit as the snow leopard. Though now rare like
leopard it is still found in Rupshu and Zanskar areas. It generally prefers to live under the cover of
dense vegetation in order to easily prey upon the game animal like ibex, goats, birds, as well as
domestic animals like sheep, hares and pigeons.
It is keen sighted beast, covered with soft fur of sandy grey color which is highly prized by the
furriers.
22
SHANKO( CAN IS LUPUS)
It is wolf found in Rupshu and some other parts of the region. In colour it is black or grey.
Classed as Vermin, Shanko has also nocturnal habits. It takes a heavy toll of flock and game animals.
WILD DOG:It is also a vermin, an on obnoxious beast preying heavily upon the nomad’s flocks and game
animals. It is a ferocious wild beast founds at high altitudes of the region.
Fox (Vulpes Vilpes)
It is found all over the region, Its color varies from yellow to dark grey.
AVI-FAUNA:Ladakh is poor so far as Avi-fauna is concerned. It is so because the region is barren.. It has
few tress and no forests and its lake are also salty . However , occasionally one may find
(patridges) snow pheasants or eagles (locally).
AGRICULTURE:Agriculture is the main source of livelihood in this district as in the rest of the state. The
major crop is at high altitudes and at times shortage of water affects yielding of crop adversely.
Two things have been brought about significant change in the lives of the Leh (Ladakh)
population the high altitude agriculture and forestry. The vegetation introduced by the Indian army
researcher during the last 40 years or so has resulted
in clusters of trees and fruity and vegetable
fields. The radishes and pumpkins grow here are of giant size. Tree has brought about some
noticeable change in ecology.

HOTICULTURE:Horticulture is playing a major role in supplementing the income to the farmers, hence
assumed great importance in Leh district in recent years. The main productions are apricot and apple
but in some parts of Khaltse block other varieties ie Almond, Grapes etc. are also grown. The fruit
produced are marketed in Leh town, other places and supplied to the defense forces stationed in the
region through cooperative marketing societies.

IRRIGATION:The district is a mountainous area
with artic desert conditions. Being mountainous with
arctic desert condition and scanty rainfall of the district, irrigation depends on the eternal glaciers,
which give birth to number of rivulets. Agriculture without irrigation here is not possible. Therefore
efforts are being made to bring more barren land under cultivation by constructing irrigation canals
on Indus, Shayok and other tributaries. The net irrigated area is 10193 hectares
and the gross
irrigated area is 10599 hectares.

The total irrigated area in the district is about 10193 hectares. Nearly all irrigated systems
in the district is gravity reliant. Most of the irrigation is being done by canals/Khuls. Skill fully
constructed water channels carrying water from its sources to the cultivated fields are the backbone
of agriculture in Ladakh. At several places, melted snow water collected during night in reservoir
built by the community for irrigation during the day time. Also melted snow water is channelized
directly from irrigation. Melting of snow is obviously in the afternoon resulting of large quantity of
water for harnessing and irrigation during night. There is a positive correlation between maximum
25
day time temperature and rate of flow of water . The snow melted water from snow clad peaks is
brought by the community to the villages and fields by constructing canals. These canals were made
with local skill through rough land of sand and rocks. From the main canal a network
of sub
channels touch each and every field. Such irrigation system is working very well for centuries in the
district.
There are a lot of water resources namely tanks , rivers, and streams available throughout
the district which are still unutilized . The two main rivers viz Indus and Shayok flowing through
the district presently do not contribute much for the water required for irrigation
In view of the cold arid climate conditions prevailing all over the district and non –
availability of electric tube well irrigation of the area does not permit economical construction of big
tanks.
NATURAL WEALTH:The following are the known minerals of Ladakh:-
1.
BORAX:Borax deposits are found in the form of surface encrustations in the floor of the Puga Valley
(33- 13’, 78’-19). These deposits are spread over an area of about 76200 meters, in the central and
eastern parts of the valley. The thickness of the encrustation varies from 3mm to 64 mm and at
places it is 135 mm .Borax is usually of white to dirty white color, the white color change in
proportion to the percentage of clay impurities in the mineral. At some places borax with a pinkish
or a greenish color is also found. The reserves of the crude borax in the Puga valley are estimated
at 5423 tones which after allowing 10% drying margin may be pout at nearly 4900 tones. Borax
behaves
like an agricultural crop, once the mineral is trapped from the valley floor, it gets
precipitated
due to thermal spring activity. Experiments have revealed that there is an average
replenishment of about 0.2 tons per 100 Sq meters per year thereby adding 1250 tons of crude
Borax and 330 tones of refined borax to the total reserves of the valley annually.
2.
SULPHUR:-
Sulphur in its Native form found both in crystalline
and amorphous state as well as in
association with the gypsiferous quartz- mica schist and quarts- mica schists , in different areas of
the Puga Valley In its Crystalline and Amorphous form, associated with Schists
it is found in
northern and southern hills slopes of the valley . The northern slopes being richer in deposits. The
northern part also posses’ deposits of Sulphurs in amorphous form combines with borax
26
encrustations. It is also found in the floors of the valley. The valley is well known for its hot springs
which contains encrustations of Sulphurs.
The total; reserves of crude sulphur in the valley tentatively calculated up to a dip down
extension of 30m have been estimated at 210000 tones .
3.
LIME STONE:Large deposits of good quality Limestone have been found to occur as bands in Indus
Flysch formation and as cliffs in Triassic lime stone formation. The Indus flysch bands are found
at Nobra and Khalste and a Marichal while the reserves of Triassic limestone formation have been
founded at Bodhkharbu. The reserves are of good quality with 42 %Cao ( Calcium Oxide) with
blue grey color and is 1220 m thick , The known reserves of limestone in the region are estimated
at 525000 tones up to a dip down extension of 35 m which are likely to increase as more areas
are covered by survey.
4.
COPPER:Speaks of native copper are reported from Tangza and Marlinfg in Zanskar. Copper
mineralization in the form of Sporadic occurrences the mineral are also reported from Habotingla.
5.
CHROMITE:The mineral has been traced in a locality in the northern-eastern direction from Drass up
to Mapala over a distance of about 10 ms. The other places where the chromite has been found are
Nioria, Tasgam, Khibar and Kamirup in Zanskar .
6.
GYPSUM:Gypsum in pure white flaks or in compact rocks with crystals of sulphur
attached to it is
found in the sulphur mines of the Puga rivulets.
7.
GOLD:
In the past, the practice of gold washing was obtained in parts of Ladakh but it was given up
as the exercise was not economically viable.
8.
FLUORITE:Fluorite mineralization has been noticed at Chumthang in conglomerate sandstones grites and
subordinate shale’s of Indus formation. These are in close contract with the intrusive Chumthang
granite. The fluorites reserves with a visual 50% grade are estimated to be of the order of 8000
tonnes.
27
9.
STENLITE:This mineral has been reported from Puga Valley and Kamirup as veins in the carboniferous
sediments.
10.
SULPHIDES:Sulphides such as bchalcopyrite , broinite , galena azurite etc. have been reported from the
Zanskar area.
The district is also
rich in medicinal herbs. The government has coereed the concerned
department for collection of ‘LANGTANG’ and ‘EPHEDREX’ to study the economic aspect of the
extraction of these plants.

Livestock is one of the mainstays of district’s domestic economy. With the Yak and Goat
being the two most important animals. Yaks are shaggy, short statured, sturdy and sure footed
animals of prodigious strength capable of negotiating the steepest of slopes, narrow frozen tracks and
the coldest of climes. Feeding on snow and on small shrubs in the craggy terrain, they yield milk for
butter, hair for ropes, and tents, hide foe boots , apron and baskets, horn for agriculture implements
dung for fuel and meat for sustenance, thereby becoming the most important animal in the artic
zone. The goats of the eastern region of the Chang Thang have extremely fine long staple fleece,
Pashum famed for its end product of pashmina shawls. Its other products too help in the sustenance
of daily life. As such rearing is an important occupation of the village folk. According to the
department of sheep husbandry in 2007-08 there are 4 farms , 52 sheep centers and 3152 Animals in
Farms and centres To take care of them there are 4 Livestock Dev. Officer & Above ,4 veterinary
Asstt. Surgeons, 66 Flock supervisor/Block inspectors, 34 Stock Asstt, 148 Attendants, 35 others.
The district though a remote border land with virtually no surface communication for more
than six months a year, has surprisingly never been isolated. Continuous cultural and commercial
contact existed with the surrounding regions of Tibet, Himachal, Kashmir, Central Asia and Sinkiang.
28
This interaction helped maintain trade ties between the places.. Pashm, salt, borax, sulphur, spices,
brocade, pearls, metals, carpet, tea and apricots were the merchandise exchanged in their marts.
District being of difficult terrain, the road construction in such an area is Himalayan task.

Ladakh as a whole was introduced to tourism in 1974 prior
to which there was no other
economic activity than agriculture in the region. The source of attraction , called tourist product of
Ladakh are the landscape , the mountains, cultural places, monasteries and palaces, festivals and
above all , the heritage of Ladakh. In 1947 only 500 tourists visited Ladakh. The tourists arrival
however, subsequently picked up During the last 20 years , the growth rate has been as high as 300
times over 1974 figure. Foreign tourists are attracted to Leh in large numbers. And in summer the Leh
town virtually looks like a quarter of a western city surrounded by foreigners.

The district is not only a rugged and difficult terrain but also a largest district in the
country with
distance from its eastern borders in Demjoke and its western end in Dah and
Tongstet in north to Kharnak in south as long as 500 Kms each. The road constructed in such an
area is a Himalayan task. Closure of passes during winter months and non availability of key
material at the beginning of the working season further adds

CENSUS CONCEPTS
Building:
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 for a combination of purposes such as shop-cum-residence, workshop-cumresidence, 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.
Pucca houses:
Houses, the walls and roof of which are made of permanent materials. The material of
walls can be any one from the following, namely, Stones (duly packed with lime or cement
mortar), G.I/metal/ asbestos sheets, Burnt bricks, Cement bricks, Concrete. Roof may be
made of from any one of the following materials, namely, Machine-made tiles, Cement tiles,
Burnt bricks, Cement bricks, Stone, Slate, G.I/Metal/Asbestos sheets, Concrete. Such houses
are treated as Pucca house.
Kutcha houses:
Houses in which both walls and roof are made of materials, which have to be replaced
frequently. Walls may be made from any one of the following temporary materials, namely,
grass, Unburnt bricks, bamboos, mud, grass, reeds, thatch, plastic /polythene, loosed packed
stone, etc. Such houses are treated as Kutcha house.
Dwelling Room:
A room is treated as a dwelling room if it has walls with a doorway and a roof and
should be wide and long enough for a person to sleep in, i.e. it should have a length of not
less than 2 meters and a breadth of at least 1.5 meters and a height of 2 meters. A dwelling
room would include living room, bedroom, dining room, drawing room, study room,
33
servant’s room and other habitable rooms. Kitchen, bathroom, latrine, store room,
passageway and verandah which are not normally usable for living are not considered as
dwelling rooms. A room, used for multipurpose such as sleeping, sitting, dining, storing,
cooking, etc., is regarded as a dwelling room. In a situation where a census house is used as a
shop or office., etc., and the household also stays in it then the room is not considered as a
dwelling room. But if a garage or servant quarter is used by a servant and if she/ he also lives
in it as a separate household then this has been considered as a dwelling room available to the
servant’s household. Tent or conical shaped hut if used for living by any household is also
considered as dwelling room. A dwelling room, which is shared by more than one household,
has not been counted for any of them. If two households have a dwelling room each but in
addition also share a common dwelling room, then the common room has not been counted
for either of the households.
Census House:
A ‘census house’ is a building or part of a building used or recognized as a separate unit
because of having a separate main entrance from the road or common courtyard or staircase,
etc. It may be occupied or vacant. It may be used for residential or non- residential purpose or
both. If a building has a number of Flats or Blocks/Wings, which are independent of one
another having separate entrances of their own from the road or a common staircase or a
common courtyard leading to a main gate, these are considered as a separate Census house.
Village:
The basic unit for rural areas is the revenue village, which has definite surveyed
boundaries. The revenue village may comprise of one or more hamlets but the entire village is
treated as one unit for presentation of data. In un surveyed areas, like villages within forest
areas, each habitation area with locally recognized boundaries is treated as one village.
Rural-Urban area:
The data in the census are presented separately for rural and urban areas. The unit of
classification in this regard is ‘town’ for urban areas and ‘village’ for rural areas. The urban
area comprises two types of towns viz; Statutory towns and Census towns. In the Census of
India 2011, the definition of urban area adopted is as follows:
(a)
Statutory Towns: All places with a municipality, corporation, cantonment board or
notified town area committee, etc are known as statutory towns.
34
(b)
Census Towns:
All
other
places
satisfying
the
following
three
criteria
simultaneously are treated as Census Towns.
i)
A minimum population of 5,000;
ii) At least 75 per cent of male working population engaged in non-agricultural
pursuits; and
iii) A density of population of at least 400 per sq. km. (1,000 per sq. mile)
For identification of places which would qualify to be classified as ‘urban’ all villages,
which, as per the 2001 Census had a population of 4,000 and above, a population density of
400 persons per sq. km. and having at least 75 per cent of male working population engaged
in non-agricultural activity were considered. To work out the proportion of male working
population referred to above against b) (ii), the data relating to main workers were taken into
account. In addition the above stated towns, urban areas also constitutes of OGs which are the
parts of UAs.
City:
Towns with population of 100,000 and above are called cities.
Urban Agglomeration:
An Urban Agglomeration is a continuous urban spread constituting a town and its
adjoining urban outgrowths (OGs) or two or more physically contiguous towns together with
or without urban outgrowths of such towns. In some cases, railway colonies, university
campuses, port areas, military camps etc. may come up near a statutory town outside its
statutory limits but within the revenue limits of a village or villages 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 qualify to be clubbed with the exiting town
as their continuous urban spread (i.e., an Out Growth). Each such town together with its
outgrowth(s) is treated as an integrated urban area and is designated as an ‘urban
agglomeration’. For the purpose of delineation of Urban Agglomerations during Census of
India 2011, following criteria has been adopted:
(a)
The core town or at least one of the constituent towns of an urban agglomeration should
necessarily be a statutory town; and
35
(b)
The total population of an Urban Agglomeration (i.e. all the constituents put together)
should not be less than 20,000 as per the 2001 Census. In varying local conditions, there
were similar other combinations which have been treated as urban agglomerations
satisfying the basic condition of contiguity.
Out Growth (OG):
The outgrowth is a viable unit such as a village or a hamlet or an enumeration block and
clearly identifiable in terms of its boundaries and location. While determining the outgrowth
of a town, it has been ensured that it possesses the urban features in terms of infrastructure
and amenities such as pucca roads, electricity, taps, drainage system for disposal of waste
water etc., educational institutions, post offices, medical facilities, banks etc and physically
contiguous with the core town of the UA.
Household:
A ‘household’ is usually a group of persons who normally live together and take their
meals from a common kitchen unless the exigencies of work prevent any of them from doing
so. Persons in a household may be related or unrelated or a mix of both. However, if a group
of unrelated persons live in a census house but do not take their meals from the common
kitchen, then they are not constituent of a common household. Each such person was to be
treated as a separate household. The important link in finding out whether it was a household
or not was a common kitchen/common cooking. There may be one member households, two
member households or multi-member households.
Institutional Household:
A group of unrelated persons who live in an institution and take their meals from a
common kitchen is called an Institutional Household. Examples of Institutional Households
are boarding houses, messes, hostels, hotels, rescue homes, observation homes, beggars
homes, jails, ashrams, old age homes, children homes, orphanages, etc. To make the
definition more clearly perceptible to the enumerators at the Census 2011, it was specifically
mentioned that this category or households would cover only those households where a group
of unrelated persons live in an institution and share a common kitchen.
36
Houseless household:
Households who do not live in buildings or census houses but live in the open or
roadside, pavements, in hume pipes, under flyovers and staircases, or in the open in places of
worship, mandaps, railway platforms, etc., are treated as Houseless Households.
Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribes:
Determination of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes population is mandatory in
each decennial Census since 1951. Both the SC population and the ST population are
enumerated/counted strictly as per the SCs lists and the STs list valid within the jurisdiction
of the State or Union Territory at the time of Census.
“Article 341 of the Constitution provides that (1) The President may with respect to
any State or Union territory, and where it is a State, after consultation with the Governor
thereof, by public notification, specify the castes, races or tribes or parts of or groups within
castes, races or tribes which shall for the purposes of this Constitution be deemed to be
Scheduled Castes in relation to that State or Union territory, as the case may be. (2)
Parliament may by law include in or exclude from the list of Scheduled Castes specified in a
notification issued under clause (1) any caste, race or tribe or part of or group within any
caste, race or tribe, but save as aforesaid a notification issued under the said clause shall not
be varied by any subsequent notification”. Similarly “Article 342 provides that (1) The
President may with respect to any State or Union territory, and where it is a State, after
consultation with the Governor thereof, by public notification, specify the tribes or tribal
communities or parts of or groups within tribes or tribal communities which shall for the
purposes of this Constitution be deemed to be Scheduled Tribes in relation to that State or
Union territory, as the case may be. (2) Parliament may by law include in or exclude from the
list of Scheduled Tribes specified in a notification issued under clause (1) any tribe or tribal
community or part of or group within any tribe or tribal community, but save as aforesaid a
notification issued under the said clause shall not be varied by any subsequent notification”.
It is important to mention here that under the Constitution (Scheduled Castes) Order,
1950, no person who professed a religion different from Hinduism was deemed to be a
member of a Scheduled Castes in addition to every member of a Scheduled Castes in addition
to every member of the Ramdasi, Kabirpanthi, Majhabi or Sikligar Castes resident in Punjab
or Patiala and East Punjab States Union were in relation to that State whether they professed
37
the Hindu or the Sikh religion. Subsequently, in September 1956, by an amendment, the
Presidential Order of 1950 and in all subsequent Presidential Orders relating to Scheduled
Castes, the Hindu and the Sikh religions were placed on the same footing with regard to the
specification of Scheduled Castes. Later on, as per the amendment made in the Constitution
(Scheduled Castes) Order 1990, the Hindu, the Sikh and the Buddhist were placed on the
same footing with regard to the recognition of the Scheduled Castes.
There are 36 notified Scheduled Castes as per ‘The Scheduled Castes and Scheduled
Tribes Lists (Modification) Order, 1956 and added by Act 31 of 1966 applicable for the
Union Territory are given below:

Language and Mother tongue:
As per the census concept, each language is a group of mother tongues. The census
questionnaire collects information on the mother tongue of each person. Mother tongue is the
language spoken in childhood by the person’s mother to the person. If the mother died in
infancy, the language mainly spoken in the person’s home in childhood will be the mother
tongue. In the case of infants and deaf mutes, the language usually spoken by the mother is
considered as mother tongue. It is not necessary that the language spoken as mother tongue
should have a script. The mother tongues returned by the respondents in census are classified
and grouped under appropriate languages according to their linguistic characteristics.
38
Literate:
A person aged 7 years and above who can both read and write with understanding in
any language is taken as literate. A person who can only read but cannot write is not literate.
It is not necessary that to be considered as literate, a person should have received any formal
education or passed any minimum educational standard. Literacy could have been achieved
through adult literacy classes or through any non-formal educational system. People who are
blind and can read in Braille are treated as literates.
Literacy rate:
Literacy rate of the population is defined as the percentage of literates in the age-group
seven years and above. For different age-groups the percentage of literates in that age-group
gives the literacy rate.
Educational level:
The highest level of education a person has completed.
Work:
Work is defined as participation in any economically productive activity with or
without compensation, wages or profit. Such participation may be physical and/or mental in
nature. Work involves not only actual work but also includes effective supervision and
direction of work. It even includes part time help or unpaid work on farm, family enterprise or
in any other economic activity. All persons engaged in ‘work’ as defined above are workers.
The main point to note is that the activity should be economically productive. Reference
period for determining a person as worker and non-worker is one year preceding the date of
enumeration.
Main worker:
A person who has worked for major part of the reference period (i.e. six months or
more during the last one year preceding the date of enumeration) in any economically
productive activity is termed as ‘Main worker’.
39
Marginal worker:
A person who worked for 3 months or less but less than six months of the reference
period (i.e. in the last one year preceding the date of enumeration) in any economic activity is
termed as ‘Marginal worker’.
Non-worker:
A person who has not worked at all in any economically productive activity during the
reference period (i.e. last one year preceding the date of enumeration) is termed as ‘Non
worker’.
Cultivator:
For purposes of the Census, a person is classified as cultivator if he or she is engaged in
cultivation of land owned or from government or from private persons or institutions for
payment in money, kind or share. Cultivation also includes effective supervision or direction
in cultivation. Cultivation involves ploughing, sowing, harvesting and production of cereals
and millet crops such as wheat, paddy, jowar, bajra, ragi, etc., and other crops such as
sugarcane, tobacco, ground-nuts, tapioca, etc., and pulses, raw jute and kindred fiber crop,
cotton, cinchona and other medicinal plants, fruit growing, vegetable growing or keeping
orchards or groves, etc. Cultivation does not include the plantation crops like– tea, coffee,
rubber, coconut and betel nuts (areca). The workers engaged in Plantation crops are recorded
under “other workers”.
Agricultural labourer:
A person who works on another person’s land for wages in cash or kind or share is
regarded as an agricultural labourer. She/he has no risk in the cultivation, but merely works
on another person’s land for wages. An agricultural labourer has no right of lease or contract
on land on which she/he works.
Household industry worker:
Household industry is defined as an industry conducted by one or more members of the
household at home or within the village in rural areas and only within the precincts of the
40
house where the household lives in urban areas. The larger proportion of workers in
household industry should consist of members of the household. The industry should not be
run on the scale of a registered factory which would qualify or has to be registered under the
Indian Factories Act and should be engaged in manufacturing, processing, servicing and
repairs of goods. The activity relate to production, processing, servicing, repairing or making

commerce, business, transport, banking, mining, construction, political or social work,
priests, entertainment artists, etc. In fact, all those workers other than cultivators or
agricultural labourers or household industry workers are ‘Other Workers’.

NON-CENSUS CONCEPTS
Concepts used in VD and TD of DCHB:
1. Educational Amenities:-The type of different educational facilities available in the village
is given in numbers. Both Government and private educational facilities / institutions are
considered for this-purpose. If there are composite schools like Middle schools with Primary
classes, or Secondary schools with middle classes, these are included in the number of
Primary and Middle schools respectively. For example, if in a village there are two Primary
schools and one Middle school with primary classes, the number of Primary schools in the
village are given as three and that of Middle school as one even though there may be only
three educational institutions. So also in case of Secondary schools. For better understanding,
the distinctiveness of different types of schools is depicted hereunder:
1.1
Pre-primary (PP): Now-a-days, the children are sent to schools at a very early stage.
Lot of pre-primary schools, private schools in particular, have come up in villages and
towns. These may or may not be recognized by the competent authorities. Even many
Secondary schools have classes starting from pre-primary level. Pre-primary classes
include Nursery, K.G., Pre-basic, Play school, etc.
1.2
Primary School (P): Schools providing education from Standard 1 and upward up to
and inclusive of Standard V are classified as Primary Schools.
1.3
Middle School (M): Schools providing education from Standard VI and upward up to

to VIII is treated as two units, i.e. one Primary School and one Middle School.
1.4
Secondary School (S): Schools providing education from Standard IX and upwards up
to and inclusive of Standard X are classified as Secondary Schools. A composite school
with 1 to X standard is treated as three separate units and counted separately under the
categories of Primary School, Middle School and Secondary School.
1.5
Senior Secondary School (SS): Schools and colleges that provide education for
Standards XI and XII and first and second year of the Pre-University Course fall under
this category. There are Senior Secondary Schools with Standard I and upwards up to
Standard XII.
1.6. Degree College: (i) Arts/Science/Commerce: These are all educational institutions that
provide post-PUC level education leading to University degree/diploma in any subject
42
or combination of subjects and also post-graduate levels of education. The college
offering courses in Arts, Science or Commerce either separately or in combination are
covered under this category.
(ii) Engineering College (E): It is a graduate/post-graduate degree college providing
Bachelor
of
Engineering
(BE)
or
Bachelor
of
Technology (B. Tech.) or post-graduate engineering
degrees like M.Tech.
(iii) Medical Colleges:
These
are
graduate/post-graduate
degree
colleges
providing MBBS or equivalent degree in alternative
medicine like Ayurveda, Unani, Homeopathy etc. or
post-graduate medical degrees like M.D or equivalent in
the above branches of medicine.
1.7. Management College/ Institute (MI): It offers courses like Diploma in Management,
Post-Graduate Diploma in Management, Masters of Business Administration (MBA)
and specializations in different disciplines of Management like Marketing, Human
Resources Development (HRD) etc.

degree) in any technical subject like engineering, vocational courses like embroidery,
fashion designing etc. It may be both Government and Private.
1.9. Vocational School/ITI: It is a vocational training institute imparting trainings in
specific fields acquiring necessary skill, which will make the trainees employable or
create them opportunities of self-employment. Trainings offered by Industrial Training
Institutes (ITI) fall under this category.
1.10. Non-formal Education/Training Centre (NFTC): Non-vocational education centers,
established by the Central and State Governments provide educational facilities to the
interested persons irrespective of educational qualification, and age. These education
centers are open to all.
1.11. Special School for Disabled: There are Government and Government recognized
institutions/organizations engaged for providing education to different groups of
disabled persons.
2. Medical Facilities:
43
2.1
Hospital-Allopathic and Hospital-Alternative medicine: A hospital is an Institution,
where sick or injured are given medical or surgical care. Bed strength differs from
hospital to hospital ranging from 31 to 500 depending upon whether these are subdistrict, sub-divisional or district hospitals. If there is hospitals providing facilities
under different systems of medicines such as, Allopathy, Ayuveda, Unani and
Homeopathy etc., these details are given separately.
(a) Allopathy:
The system of medical practice, which treats disease by the use of
remedies which produce effects different from those produced by
the disease under treatment.
(b) Ayurveda:
Ayurveda means ‘Science of life’. The philosophy of Ayurveda is
based on the theory of Pancha Mahabhootas (Five elements) of
which all the objects and living bodies are composed of. The
combination of these five elements are represented in the form of
Tridosha: Vata, Pitta and Kapha. These three ‘doshas’ are
physiological entities of living beings. Ayurveda developed into
eight distinct specialities, i.e., Internal Medicine, Pediatrics,
Psychiatry, Eye and ENT, Surgery, Toxicology, Geriatrics and
Science of virility. Two types of treatments, Preventive and
Curative, are given in Ayurveda.
(c) Unani:
Treatment of Unani consists of three components, namely,
preventive, promotive and curative. Unani system of medicine has
been found to be efficacious in conditions like Rheumatic
Artharitis. Jaundice, Filarisis, Eczema, Sinusitis and Bronchial
Asthma. For the prevention of the disease and promotion of health,
the Unani System emphasizes six essentials: pure air, food and
water, physical movement and rest, psychic movement and rest,
sleep and wakefulness and retention of useful materials and
evacuation of waste materials from the body.
(d) Homoeopathy: Treatment in Homoeopathy, which is holistic in nature, focuses on
an individual’s response to a specific environment. Homoeopathic
medicines are prepared mainly from natural substances such as
plant products, minerals and animal sources. Homoeopathic
44
medicines do not have any toxic, poisonous or side effects.
Homoeopathic treatment is economical as well and has a very
broad public acceptance.
2.2
Community Health Centre (CHC): Community Health Centres are designed to
provide referral health care for cases from PHC and those in need of specialist health
care approaching the CHC directly. 4 PHCs are included under each CHC thus catering
approximately 80,000 populations in tribal/hilly areas and 1, 20,000 populations for
plain areas. CHC is a 30- bedded hospital providing specialist care in Medicine,
Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Surgery and Paediatrics.
2.3
Primary Health Centre (PHC): A Primary Health Centre is the first contact point
between a village community and the Government medical officer. A PHC covers a
population of 20,000 in hilly, tribal or difficult areas and 30,000 populations in plain
areas with 4-6 indoor/observation beds. It acts as a referral unit for 6 sub-centres. It has
a medical officer and para medical staff.
2.4 Primary Health Sub- Centre (PHS): A Primary Health Sub-centre is the first contact
point between the primary health care system and the community. As per the population
norms, one PHS is established for every 5,000 population in plain areas and 3,000
population in hilly/ tribal/ desert areas. Each PHS has a sanctioned strength of one male
and one female health worker.
2.5 Maternity and Child Welfare Centre (MCW): It provides pre-natal and post-natal
services for both mother and child. The services include regular check-up of pregnant
women, giving folic tablets, counselling, delivery, immunization of children with
check-up etc.
2.6
TB Clinic (TBC): The diagnosis and treatment of TB are functions of the general
health services and hence it is a part and parcel of Primary Health Care. Specialized
units such as the District Tuberculosis Centre (DTC) act as referral centres. TB clinics
are established by the Government of India under the National Tuberculosis Control
Programme and implemented through a network of DTC. The DTC is the nodal point
for TB control activities in the district and it also functions as a specialized referral
centre. The functions of sub-district level Tuberculosis Unit (TU) are implementation,
monitoring and supervision of TB control activities in its designated geographical areas.
45
2.7
Health Centre: Clinic where medicine and medical supplies are dispensed. It has no inpatient facility. A clinic (or an outpatient clinic) is a small private or public health
facility that is devoted to the care of outpatients, often in a community, in contrast to
larger hospitals, which also treat inpatients.

nursing home gives importance to convalescence from a disease while a hospital gives
medical treatment for the disease.
2.13 Medicine Shop: A shop which sells drugs and medicines of any system of medicine
viz. allopathic, homeopathic, ayurvedic or unani medicines, is considered as a medicine
shop. Sometimes some shops and Paan shops also keep ordinary medicines, like Crocin,

recommended by the Ministry of Agriculture, Government of India.
The Ministry has
recommended the maintenance of records of land use pattern under the 9 categories as indicated
in the Village Directory.
12. System of drainage: Generally, by drainage system, we mean the network of mains and
branches of underground conduits for the conveyance of sewerage to the point of disposal.
Sewers that carry only household and industrial wastage are called separate sewers; those that
carry storm water from roofs, streets and other surfaces are known as storm water drains, while
those carrying both sewage and storm water are called combined sewers. However, in towns,
which are not provided with such underground sewerage system, it is mentioned whether it has
52
open drainage system. There may be possibility of the town having both closed as well as open
drainage systems.
13. Type of latrines: The data on various types of latrines both public and private together are
collected. The three types of latrines considered here are, Pit Latrine, Flush/Pour Flush Latrine
and Service Latrine.
(i) Pit System:
The latrines are attached to the pit that is dug into the ground for
the reception of night soil, are reckoned as pit latrine.
(ii) Flush/pour flush: A flush latrine uses a cistern or holding tank for flushing water
and has a water seal, which is a U-shaped pipe, below the seat or
squatting pan that prevents the passage of flies and odours. A
pour flush latrine uses a water seal, but unlike a flush latrine, a
pour flush latrine uses water poured by hand for flushing (no
cistern is used).
(iii) Service:
Type of latrine from where night soil is removed manually by
scavengers. All other types of latrines are covered under “Others”
category.
14. Protected Water Supply- Source and capacity of Storage system: There are various
sources of water supply and its storage system in the town.
14.1 Service Reservoir: A service reservoir is a water storage container that holds clean
water after it has been treated in a water plant, and before it is piped to the end users.
These containers are covered, and are designed to keep the water safe from
contamination. Their main purpose is to provide a buffer within the water supply
system so that water supplies can be maintained across periods of varying demand.
14.2 River Infiltration Gallery: Infiltration Galleries are capable of supplying large
quantities of water, and are used where wells are unable to supply water needs, i.e.
where an impermeable rock barrier affects well efficiency, or where surface water
sources are too shallow for intake screens. Infiltration galleries are one or more
horizontal screens placed adjacent to (on-shore), or directly underneath (bed-mounted),
a surface water source.
53
14.3 Bore Well Pumping System: A bore well is a well of 6" to 12" in diameter drilled into
the earth for retrieving water. The depth of a bore well can vary from 50 feet to 3000
feet. Water is pumped out to surface through electricity/generator.
14.4 Pressure Tank: Tank that is used to ensure consistent water pressure and for storage of
water. Usually located in basement of house but sometimes (in older settings) located in
well pit.
15.
Road lighting (Points): Road lighting means the number of street lights that are
maintained in the town.
16.
Home Orphanage: Orphanageis the name to describe a residential institution devoted
to the care of orphans–children whose parents are deceased or otherwise unable to care for
them. Parents, and sometimes grandparents, are legally responsible for supporting children,
but in the absence of these or other relatives willing to care for the children, they become a
ward of the state, and orphanages are a way of providing for their care and housing.
17.
Working women's hostel: These may be recognised or non-recognised by any public
authority. The data on number of working women's hostels available in the town are collected
with number of seats.
18. Old Age Home: There are two types of Old Age Homes in India. One is the "Free" type
which cares for the destitute old people who have no one else to care for them. They are given
shelter, food, clothing and medical care. The second type is the "Paid" home where care is
provided for a fee. Nowadays, such "Retirement" homes have become very popular in India
and they are well worth considering.
19.
Stadium: A stadium is a place, or venue, for (mostly) outdoor sports, concerts or other
events, consisting of a field or stage partly or completely surrounded by a structure designed
to allow spectators to stand or sit and view the event.
20.
Auditorium/Community Hall: These are the places where meetings, social functions
etc. are organised.
54
Civic status of urban units:
Civic Status of a town/city is determined on the basis of Civic Administrative Authority
of the town e.g., Municipal Corporation / Corporation, Municipal Committee / Municipal
council, Municipality etc.
Size class of U.A./town:
Size-class of U.A./Town is based on the population size of the U.A./City/Town.
U.A.s/Towns with 100,000 and above population are classified as Class I U.A.s/
Towns. Towns with 50,000 to 99,999 population are classified as Class II towns, 20,000 to
49,999 population are Class III towns, population with 10,000- 19,999 are Class IV towns,
population with 5,000 and 9,999 are Class V towns and towns with less than 5,000 population
are Class VI towns.
Slum area:
The Slum Areas (Improvement and Clearance) Act, 1956, which was enacted by the
Central Government defined slums as (a) Areas where buildings are in any respect unfit for
human habitation; or (b) are by reasons of dilapidation, overcrowding, faulty arrangement and
design of such buildings, narrowness or faulty arrangement of streets, lack of ventilation, light
or sanitation facilities, or any combination of these factors, are detrimental to safety, health or
morals.
Mega city:
The concept of ‘Mega city’ is a recent phenomenon in the Urban Sociology and is
defined in term of metropolitan city in the form of large size, problem of management of civic
amenities and capacity to absorb the relatively high growth of population. Indian Census in
1991 treated the population size of 5 million and above as the cutoff point to identify a place
as the mega city. Whereas, for the purpose of inclusion in Centrally Sponsored Scheme for
Infrastructure Development in Mega cities the Ministry of Urban Affairs and employment,
Department of Urban Development adopted the criteria of 4 million and above population as
per 1991 Census for Mega Cities. In 2001 Census, cities with 10 million and above
population have been treated as Mega cities and the same criteria of population has been
adopted in 2011 census.

MAJOR
SOCIAL
AND
CULTURAL
EVENTS,
NATURAL
AND
ADMINISTRATIVE DEVELOPMENTS AND SIGNIFICANT ACTIVITIES
DURING DECADE
Ladakh is a land that abounds in awesome physical features set in an enormous landscape and
therefore it appears beautifully desolate and remote. Yet over centuries, it has imbibed diverse ethnic,
religious and cultural influences through the many missionaries , explorers and traders who traversed its
windswept plateau and deep valleys. In the process it has been able to evolve and inherit a rich culture,
which survives
even today
as a living heritage of the Western Himalayas. This heritage finds
manifestations in the region’s monuments , monasteries art and oral literature, fair and festivals and in the
time honoured
tradition of collective
celebration of various events. Here every occasion – marriage,
birth farming and harvesting , even the flowering of plants is celebration of various events. Here every
occasion marriage , birth , farming and harvesting even the flowering of plants- is celebrated with great
fun fare, marked with feasting , dancing and singing of flock songs that form part of its rich culture . In
summer most villages held colourful archery festivals and thanks giving events, while winter is the period
in which most of the religious festivals and social and cultural events are held.
Among the many social and cultural events of
Ladakh the annual festivals held in the Buddhist
monasteries constitute the most important part of the regions living heritage. These festivals are held to
commemorate the founding of a particular monastery or the birth anniversary of its patron saint or major
events in the history and evolution of Tibetan Buddhism. Thousands of people turn out to attend these
festivals
in their tradition best , making every event a carnival of colours. For the local people ,
participation
in these festivals
serves the dual purpose of attaining
religious merit and social
entertainment , while for the visitors they afford an opportunity to experience the richness of the religious
and cultural heritage of Ladakh.
The core event of the monastic festival is Chhams, a highly choreographed sacred dance drama
performed by Lambas to the accompaniment of mystic music played on the monastic orchestra . These
dances are performed not only to symbolize the destruction of evil sprits and dramatize the illusoriness
of life, but also as ritual offerings to the tutelary deities (Yi-dam) of monastery and guardians of the
faith. A select group of Lambas of the monastery , dressed in brightly patterned brocade robes, performs
the dance in the monastic courtyard called Chhamra. The dancers wear various kind of masks , some
fierce and grotesque, other benign and pleasing. These represent various divinities from the Buddhist
pantheon , most of
which are found in statue form in the Gom Khang – the room dedicated to the
guardian divinities in major monasteries. Some of the mask may even represent famous character from
historical episodes or Tibetan fables. The more fearsome ones represent various forms of the protectors
of religious (Dharmapalas), actually Buddha and Bodhisattvas in their wrathful tantric form. Other
97
represent local guardian divinities, originally Gods and
demons of the pre Buddhist Bonpo and
Shaminist belief system that were tamed and integrated into the Buddhist pantheon by Padmasambhava ,
founder of Tibetan monasticism.
As the Chhams approached its end on the second and final day of the festival , the climatic scene
is enacted in which the votive offerings, a grotesque human figure moulded from dough and consecrated
with prayers and rites is stabbed with ritual instruments., disinembered and the pieces scattered in the
four cardial directions.. This ritual, known as Dao Tuvla ( killing of the enemy), is traditionally executed
by Jha Nak, leader of the black hat dancers who perform one of the cultic dance sequences. It symbolises
the destruction of the evil in the individual soul, leading to its purification. Scattering of the destroyed
human figure symbolizers dissolution of the body into the totality of elements after its physical death.
In ancient times the ritual dance constituted an important part of the magic rite performed to
physically kill the enemy of Buddhism. Such dances are not held anymore. However the ceremony of
Dao- Tulva – symbolizing the destruction of the enemy represented by the human figure is a remnant of
this tradition.
The rites and ceremonies of the festival are conducted by the head Lama incarnate (Rimpoche) of
the monastery. He occupies a high throne in the centre of the long gallery which runs along the open sides
of the rectangular dancing courtyard on to which open the gates of the main assembly hall ( Du- Khang)
which also serves as the green room for the lama Dancers. Other Lamas of the monetary and the
monastic musician all dressed in their ceremonial robes , sit in near rows below the throne on its either
side on carpet covered cushions. The seating is strictly according to the placement order and status of each
Lamba in monastic hierarchy which is enforced by the Lama in charge of monastic discipline.
Every major monastery has a dancing courtyard (Chhamra) within its premises, which is generally
surrounded by galleries meant for the spectators . During the festival , it is decorated with fresh prayer
flags and new Tarchen ( long prayer flag ) is wound around the ventral flagpole., the colours of flag and
the ‘Trachen’ should correspond to the element of the particular year. The front façade of the monastic
building overlooking the courtyard is decorated with huge ‘Thangka’ bearing the image of the founding
saint of the monastic order to which the monastery belongs. In some cases the ‘ Thangka’ depicts the
deity represented in the mystic play being enacted through the sacred dances.
`
The dances are conducted
by the dance master ( Chhamps) who is well versed
in the art of
choreographing the various sequences as per instructions contained and codified in the dance book
(Chhams- Vig ) . The ‘Rimpocche ‘ leads the Lambas in
the
recitation
of the
prayers
and
observance of the rites associated with various episodes of the Chamms thus creating the appropriate
98
ambience for the devotees to imbibe the spiritual effect of the dance. The appearance of masked dancers
in their measured steps , in turn with the kind of divinities they are to encounter during the 49- days Bardo
or transit period between death as human being and rebirth in one of the six forms of existence ,
depending upon one’s Karma.
The festivals also provide the
people with an opportunity for socializing, trading and general
entertainment. As makeshift market springs up overnight around the monastery. During
the summer
festivals, families visiting the monastery from far and wide organise outings or overnight excursions. In
nearby gardens while younger visitors arrange all night singing and dancing parties in nearby village. The
more devoted villagers, however look at the event essentially as an opportunity to gain religious merits
from pilgrimage of the monastery and the various images place therein , for, it is during these festivals
that the Leh devotees can visit all the rooms and view all images and figures which are otherwise kept
closed veiled. Mathoo monastery is the only establishment in Ladakh which follows the Saskya-pa order ,
one of the last Red sect to be founded in Tibet.
The monetary is situated on a hill in a lateral ravine of the Stock-Khangri range. Across the Indus,
some 26 Kms east of Leh. It is believed to be nearly 500 years old and now has a residence community of
about 60 monks. Its annual festivals called’ Mathoo Nagrang’ is held on the 14th and 15th day of the 1st
Tibetan month, which generally falls during the month of February –March. The most interesting feature of
this festival is that two oracles of the monetary, known as Rongtsan made a public appearance during these
two days. They are actually monks of monastery, chosen every year 3rd year by lots and trained from being
possessed by the gods. As part of this training, they stay in retreat and mediate in isolation for two months
in preparation for receiving the spirit of the deities.
On the first day of the festival, the oracles enter in a state of trance and receive the deities. In this
state they perform all sorts of impossible and miraculous feats such as cutting themselves with swords ,
running over the high ramparts of the monastery and jumping from balcony to another all blindfolded.
Amidst all these live wire feats they answer the quarries
made by the people about their problems or
reply to those seeking predictions. People from far and wide comes to witness the feats of these oracles
and hear them predict key future events as well as to seek divine solutions for their personal problems
It is believed that the oracles are able to detect false questions posed for testing them to which their
reaction are mostly violent. The Matho oracles are famous all over Ladakh and people from various walks
of life repose abiding faith in their prediction.
Losar is the most important of all the socio- religious events of Ladakh. Interestingly the, Losar
rites and customs are a mixture of Buddhist and the pre- Buddhist Bon traditions. Preparations for the
events starts quite early, immediately after the harvesting season is over., when people start stockings
99
provisions for the occasion sheep and goats for the customary feasts as well as grain for brewing
‘Chang’ (a local barley beer) new cloths and jewellery are also made for wearing on the New Year.
The festivities start on the 29th day of the
10th month of the Tibetan
calendar with the
immolation of homes and shrines. Then begins the series of evening feasts to which relatives and family
friends are invited. The Muslim peasantry in most parts of Ladakh also follows this tradition.
The new year day itself starts with the offering of votive at the shrine of personal Gods and clan
ancestors and greeting of family elders, relatives and friends. Afterwards , elders of the family receive
them with customary visitors , who come to greet them with presents and Khatak (ceremonial scarf) . The
younger members calls on various friends and relatives. Leh and its adjoining villages wear a carnival look
as people come out in their colourful best. It is customary for the Muslims and Christians in Leh to call
on their Buddhist friends carrying presents and ‘Khatak‘ to greet them on the occasion.
Ethnically the Ladakhis comprise amalgam of four prominent strains, namely Mons, Dards,
Tibetan and Balties. Mons belong to the Aryan race, they might be called as professional entertainers as
they move from place to place playing their musical
instruments and
for the most part are denied the
privilege of inter marriage with the other groups .Dard are confined mainly to Drass and the Indus
valley. At Drass they are Muslims and retain very little of their past. But those in the Indus valley below
Khaltse display a distinctive identity, preserving their
original Buddhist Changpas with their herds of
Pashm.
Baltis are mostly found in Western Ladakh in the Kargil region, but isolated pockets exist in the
Nobra valley and near Leh. They are believed to be descendants of the Sakas , a central Asian race.
All groups have together contributed their own perceptible share in the distinctive physiognomy ,
language and homogenised culture in Ladakh. The Ladakhis are simple and hardy people with immerse
capacity for work and the fortitude to not merely survive but remain cheerful under the most adverse
physical conditions living as close to nature as they do, they have maintained harmonious balance with
their surroundings.

is the most common Ladakhi dress, loose pajamas , a top hat and a long felt boots complete the esemble.
slight dress variation exist for men and women. Buddhists mainly wear a brick red robes but the nomads
of Chang Thang wear undyed clothes. Ladakhi women wear an attractive headgear called Perak made of
black lamb skins studded with semi-precious turquoise stones , covering the head like a cobra’s hood and
tapering to a thin tail reaching down the back. For ceremonial purposes, colourful robes in silk and
brocade are worn.
LADAKHI CUSTOM:
The death rite in Leh (Ladakh) are peculiar. A child below the age of eight is buried , but older
children’s and elders are cremated. When a person dies, the body is kept in the house for a week for
performance of rite and prayers. Lamas remain in the house during this period. they sleep and eat in the
same room where the dead body is kept while the men and women sitting in separate room mourn for the
deceased. The body is kept in the lying position but is tied in sitting position. In summer the body is kept
cool by Hay and sprinkling water over it. A sort of a crown is put over the head of the corpse. The body is
brought down from the stairs usually by the eldest son of the family on his back and then put in coffin box
and carried for cremation. The body is put in an oven built above the ground and the wood is burnt from the
below, so that comparatively less wood is consumed. This method of cremation is perhaps followed
because of the shortage of wood . The practice of tying the body in a sitting position has an interesting
origin. It is stated that once while prayers were in progress on the seventh day after death, the corpse rose
from the bed and tried to run out of the house through the door where it was hit on the forehead by the
lentil of the door and fell. This creates a difficult problem for the completion of the death rites. . It is now
believed that top prevent any possible recurrence of such an incident, the body is securely tired with ropes
101
in a sitting posture. Many inhabitants do not take a bath as a habit. In the Changthang Rupihu people do
not bath primarily due to cold. Elsewhere bathing is avoided because of some taboos or because of a belief
that it would bring bad cluck. Both men and women wear a head gear. To move about without headgears is
not considered respectful. Ladakhis use various utensils. The poor people have simple goblets of wood.
Those more prospers have goblets of wood moulded in silver. The very rich ones use silver goblets.
Normally they stick to their own personal utensils. A large spoon is important and a universal article. It is
made of a metal with exotic design, and is usually huge for the girdle. The upper part of the spoon is used
for stirring Sattu , roasted barley or any other kind of food and the lower one for spinning Broth.
JAMIA MASJID LEH:-
The historical mosque is situated in the heart of Leh town. It was build in 1666-67 A.D consequent
to an agreement between the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb and the then ruler of Ladakh Deldan Namgyal.
Since then it has been repaired and extended several times. The Mughals have facilitated withdrawal of
Mongol army from Leh (Ladakh) as early as in 15th century, the Muslim shrines were constructed latter
than that. A couple of years ago , the Jamia Masjid was dismantled and a new mosque was constructed in
the place using modern masonry skills.
MASJID-E-SHAH- HAMDAN:-
In Shey village a 15kms from Leh there is a small mosque of great historical value. The mosque
known as Shah-e-Hamdan mosque was built by one of the greatest preachers of Islam in Kashmir, Mir
Syed Ali Hamdani popularly known as Shah- e –Hamdan. He has arrived at Ladakh about seven centuries
ago.
GUMPAS:-
The most conspicuous and interesting feature of the landscape in Leh (Ladakh) district is the
Gumpas, Chortens and Manis.
The word Gumpa refers to a solitary place . Gumpas are always built away from the crowded and
noisy influenced of the village settlements. The fact that the major Gumpas are located along the major
trade routes and their concentration near Leh indicate their role in trade activity. Thus the location of
Gumpas on the trade route extending from Kashmir valley to Western Tibet i.e Lamayuru , Spituk,
Phanyang, Thiskay, Hemis and Chemery and from plains of Punjab
to central Asia such as Karsha,
Takrimo, Zanskar and Diskit becomes meaningful significant. They are mostly located along the Indus and
its tributaries. These are usually situated on steep slopes of the hills.
102
The Gumpas also highlight the tradition of collective labour and the availability of considerable
architectural skills without which it have not been possible to put up such splendid and colourful
buildings on difficult sites. The villages are immediately affiliated
to their respective village Gumpas
which in turn are affiliated to the medium Gumpas and ultimately to the major Gumpas. Since the monks
are not supposed to work on the Gumpa- land as there is a strong belief that their ploughing of the land
will result in death of numerous life- bearing objects, the villages either work as tenants or agricultural
labourer. The tenants pay one-fifth to half of the produce to Gumpa as rent and hold nothing in their own
right. The farmers also manufacture woollen stuffs, jewellery and pottery for their ecclesiastical masters.
The Gumpas drive their income from following ways:1. Rents from tenants
2. Agricultural produce cultivated by labourers in Gumpa lands
3. Donations from people
4. Trade
5.
Interest from money- lending operations.
There are about 2800 monks in Leh (Ladakh ) district which gives a fairly high ratio of priests to
people. Generally every Buddhist sends one son to be obtained as a monk. Families where no son is born
daughters are sent to become nuns.
Gumpas play the most important part in the life of the Buddhists. The monasteries are not merely
the hub of the religious life of the people but are also the cultural repositories of the land. In order to
qualify the religious order of the Lamas one has not only to learn the scriptures by hard toil but has to
learn to draws paintings on wall or canvass cloth ( the latter type of painting is known as Tankas) and
also to sculpt in metal
and stone the figure of numerous deities. Thus every Gumpa has become a
treasure house cute mystic art objects. These art objects and the great wealth of the monasteries
accumulated over the centuries are displayed on the occasion of the festival which every Gumpa observes
to mark different auspicious events. Nowhere in Kashmir do the people reveal so much in gaiety and
in colour as in Leh and no where
else do they celebrate so many festivals and hold so many fairs
either. Often these festivals have a ‘Local’ atmosphere cantered around the deity of Lord Buddha of a
local Gumpa. . Though all festivals in Leh have religious back ground some of them have over the years
attracted people from all creeds and castes who take part in them freely.
Two other things that occupy importance in the life and land of Leh are the aubiquitous manis or
the walls of the praying stones and the Chortens. Manis are found where ever there is any habitation and at
place even away from it. A Mani is a massive stone wall sometimes upto a mile long and about eight feet
high, the top floating either from the centre either side . Every stone of the roof is elaborately carved in
103
pictorial characters with prayers generally with ‘ OM MANI PADNE HUNG’ that is repeated millions of
times daily in that land. Towering above the houses, the Chorten or the sarcophagi , made of mud and
gaily painted can also be seen everywhere in Leh district. They contain the ashes of pious Lamas.
HEMIS GUMPAS:-
Hemis Gumpa is situated 36 Kms south of Leh, at the left bank of river Indus, in the lap of the
snow- capped mighty Himalayas.
It is amongst the
biggest Gumpa in Leh district and its majestic
edifice is built in Tibetan architecture. In summer the atmosphere
near and around the monastery is
filled with the sweet aroma of wild flowers. The place is quite still and secluded inspiring meditation.
Hemis was founded nearly four hundred years ago by an eminent Buddhist, saint Hawang Gyatso.
In the past people used to come from far off places travelling on foot for days and weeks to visit
Hemis Gumpa and Hemis fair. Now however , the journey has become easy due to vehicular roads.
Someone from every Buddhist family should go to this fair every year. It is must for the Buddhist of Leh
to visit Hemis at least once in a year.
The people visit the shrines and the halls in the Gumpas. They prostrate themselves before the
status of Buddha saying ‘I take refuge
in Buddha, Dharma and Sangha’. They burn lamps filled with
butter and milk and circumambulate the Gumpa reciting the sacred mantra ’Om Mani Padma Hung ‘
meaning ‘O though jewel in the lotus ,O and supplicating pray give me the blessing of your body, speech
and mind’.
Though every Gumpa Leh (Ladakh) district has its own annual wassail, the one celebrated in the
Hemis Gumpa is the most well-known particularly to outsiders because it is the Gumpa Gala celebrated
during summer when it is comparatively easy to reach that land of fantastic heights. This festival known
as ‘Chheshu Mela ‘ is celebrated for two days comes usually towards the end of June or early July
corresponding with the 20th day of the5th Buddhist month to commemorate the birthday of Padma
Sambhava who was the founder of Lammaism and is believed to be lord Buddha’s incarnation . The
festival is also held to exercise evil influences. An old world charm still dominates the scene in that
wonderland of Lamas that fascinates all seekers of the extra-ordinary experience and fun. About three
thousand people participate in this mela.
On the first day of the festival plays are staged at about 5 am Then an image of Drukpa
Rimpochhey , great saint of red sect embroidered on a silk curtain measuring about 50 feet by 20 feet is
suspended
from the cornice of the Gumpas main gate. The Lamas pray and dance before it to the
accompaniment of music.. At 9 am they assemble near the balcony of the Gumpa. After the head Lama has
104
taken his place, then other Lamas strike up the band. About 18 masked – lamas dance in the main
compound
for half an hour. They are joined by more Lamas who represent the deities. Attired is striking
garments they also dance while the chief actor worships and dance around the effigy of a devil in human
form called Deo in the masks called Turdak. This effigy is made of butter and maize flour. This last for
few minutes and they are followed by other two Lamas. Fourteen masked actors join in the dance which
continue for an hour and is followed by worship. The Deo’s effigy is then cut to pieces with swords.
Acquire masked dance takes place in the compound and last about an hour. It marks the closing ceremony
of the first day. The head Lama removes the curtain late in the evening.
Next day a similar embroidered curtain with an image of Gial Sras is suspected. Gial Sras was the
head Lama at one time and it was he who gave this Gumpa its present form. Worship and Dancing are
also part of the ceremony on this day . At about 3 pm a Statue of God Giapo is worshipped by the Lamas
and different kinds of offerings are made. Afterwards masked dancers dances in groups . A masked figure
with a demos face , called HJasvang gyapo , is hailed with laughter by the whole party. At about 6 pm the
great festival ends and the curtains is removed the same evening.

grave yard.. Here too a wooden effigy is made which the Lamas call the Dosmochhey- Devil. About six
funeral prayers are arranged in the cycle. The Lamas place various effigy on these pyers.
They are then
set on fire while dancing and prsyuers go on. The musicians play mournful tunes and as they finish a tune
of ropes tied to a effigy is cut and with the second tune the second rope is cut and so on when the effigy
falls people rush to snatch part of it as charms. There is a belief that if one
