Depends on what Shwetha wants:

village-wise primary census abstracts? village amenities tables (now called village amenities directory)? Or something else?

Typically the above data are one file per state, so that should not be so bulky.

Hi Shwetha

If I correctly understand what you need, then I believe you should be able to find it somewhere on this link:

https://censusindia.gov.in/census.website/data/tables

Now, since I am not physically in India, the link doesn't open for me. Funnily enough, it doesn't work with an Indian VPN server either. But I'm pretty sure you will be able to access it if you are in India. However, a caveat is that I last accessed it (using help from a friend in India) around May 2024; so I'm not sure if the link is actually broken right now. If that is the case, then I apologize in advance.

Anyway, if it does work for you, a little word of caution: each census year on this link consists of hundreds (or maybe a little over 1000) of data files, and the search tool sucks quite a bit, with only 10 or so results showing up on each page (I think they deliberately make it difficult for some reason). So you may have to do a lot of manual work to find the right files. Unless you know how to automate the process using python or something.

/By the way, this just gave me an idea: does anyone want to voluntarily create a dump of all these files on GitHub so that they are easily accessible to anyone who needs them? I would urge some of the senior members of the group to volunteer for this effort. I think it would be extremely useful for all of us./

Thanks and regards.

    Hi everyone,

    Does anyone have the consolidated Census 2011 villages amenities
    dataset?

    SHRUG is fantastic, but does not work for my purpose since I need
    the unit of observation to be exactly per the Census 2011 and not
    at the level of the shrug ID (which is the lowest common
    denominator across the 1991, 2001 and 2011 censuses).

    Many thanks,
    Swetha

            Yes I had read the documentation/user manual but was
            unable to locate it (I didn't think it would be written in
            the FAQ ;) ).

            If anyone wonders the same: go to "Core Keys" on the
            download page.

            Thanks for your help and patience :)

                    Thanks again!

                    In the SHRUG data there are no village names in
                    the Census village files. It appears that the
                    numbers are a collection of the total villages in
                    that State,District combination. I require those
                    for matching, how can I get the names?

                    Kind regards,
                    Nadine

                        You can find that in Table A01 of both the
                        2001 and 2011 Censuses. You can access those
                        tables here:

                        
https://censusindia.gov.in/census.website/data/census-tables#

                        You will need to select the census year on the
                        left to get the tables from that year.

                                    I am looking for the population
                                    for each village according to 2001
                                    census and 2011 census. The links
                                    here above in this thread are no
                                    longer working.

                                    I looked at:
                                    
https://censusindia.gov.in/nada/index.php/catalog/?page=1&sk=village%20directory&tag%5B%5D=Census-2001&sort_by=popularity&sort_order=desc&ps=15

                                    and there you can search for each
                                    STATE + DISTRICT separately to
                                    obtain a VILLAGE DIRECTORY.
                                    However, I wonder if someone has
                                    the village population data in one
                                    excel sheet of India 2001 and 2011
                                    census.

                                    Thank you so much!
