The Indian Census is the largest single source of a variety of
statistical information on different characteristics of the people of India.
With a history of more than 130 years, this reliable, time tested exercise has
been bringing out a veritable wealth of statistics every 10 years, beginning
from 1872 when the first census was conducted in India non-synchronously in
different parts. To scholars and researchers in demography, economics,
anthropology, sociology, statistics and many other disciplines, the Indian
Census has been a fascinating source of data. The rich diversity of the people
of India is truly brought out by the decennial census which has become one of
the tools to understand and study India.
