Description
ABOUT THE BOOK:-The census have made the largest single contribution to the study of ethnology and even anthropology. Plowden as census commissioners of 1881, recommended that list of castes and occupations should be prepared for each districts and district officer asked to collect informations regarding the castes and occupations of their people. This was promptly followed by the appointment in 1885 by Risley on special duty for a period of two years to conduct an enquiry into castes and occupation througout Bengal which then considered of Behar, Odisha, Assam and Bengal.
