Hi Shiv and Sharad,
Thanks for your responses.
- I was hoping someone might have already consolidated the town and
village amenities tables from the states into one dataset.
- Shiv, the links to the tables on the page you shared do not work
from India either. So far the best way to locate the files seems to be
to search for "district census handbook" on
https://censusindia.gov.in/nada/index.php/catalog/. The title is at
odds with the content - the district census handbooks bring up the
village and town amenities Excel files for that state.
A public repository of all the files would be a much-needed public
good. I'm surprised there isn't one already.
Best,
Swetha

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.
Yours sincerely

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

Thanks Shiv!!
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 :)
Kind regards,
Nadine

Actually all place names are available in the file
'shrid_loc_names'. Please go through their
documentation to understand how they define a
SHRID. It is basically a village, but you will get
the nuances from their docs.
Thanks and regards.

Hi Shiv,
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

Hi 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.
Thanks and regards.
Yours sincerely

Hi Shiv,
Thank you so much!
Is it also possible to obtain the
rural_population per district? (I
recall that Census displays also the
breakdown of urban/rural population)
Kind regards,

Hi everyone,
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!
