Synopsis
This book is an enthralling collection of tables and subsidiary tables, grouped by state, extracted from the original 1901 Census of India. The author has compiled this data to provide easy reference to the information, previously only available in its entirety through the National Archives in New Delhi. The book delves into the historical, administrative, and demographic character of 12 Princely States, namely Indore, Riwa, Bhopal, Dhar, Barwani, Datia, Charkhari, Chhatarpur, Devas, Jaora, Ratlam, and Sitamau. Through the analysis of religious practices, languages, and population figures, the author offers a unique insight into the way of life, social structures, and cultural diversity across these states during the early 20th century. The book provides valuable insights into the history, culture, and traditions of the central Indian Princely States and contributes to ongoing research into the subcontinent's past. It will be of great interest to historians, social scientists, and anyone interested in the rich tapestry of Indian history.
