| What pattern is generally observable in studying population growth? | a pattern is generally observable which gives a clue to the probable truth regarding doubtful figures | pared."4 Such a process must have been difficult and the results cannot but be unreliable. In 1951 the situation has been entirely different. The establishment of independent Gov- ernments in Pakistan and India has removed the incentive to inflation, and in fact the present census has been conducted in an atmosphere remarkably free from communal tension. The efforts made in 1941, under the stresses which then existed, to make the census a conscientiolls effort to discover the truth have been repeated with even greater determination, and in the changed circumstances, they met with full public co-operation. In East Bengal a large pro- portion of the enumerators and census officers were appointed from the minority community. In studying the growth of populations a pattern is generally observable which gives a clue to the probable truth regarding doubtful figures. | 770 | definition | 1.000 | https://censusindia.gov.in/nada/index.php/catalog/31311/download/34492/1422_1951_POP.pdf | In studying the growth of populations a pattern is generally observable which gives a clue to the probable truth regarding doubtful figures. |

| How have the changes in Kasur Tehsil and Shakargarh Tehsil been treated for general comparison? | as compensating for each other | Total Population.-In comparing the total population figures for the Punjab with those of previous censuses, aHowance must be made for the Partition. The figures given in Statement '0' refer to the districts of the Punjab as constituted at present in Pakistan. They have not however been adjusted in respect of the inclusion of a portion of Kasur Tehsil in India and the inclusion of Shakargarh Tehsil in Pakistan. Previolls census reports do not provide sufficient detail for this calculation to be made without considerable research. for the purpose of general comparison these two changes have been treat(.d as compensating for each other. C!he variations shown in statement ' 0' are very irregular, but allowing for the known inaccuracies, the top line in the graph at Diagram , P , gives a fairly consistent rise in the total population. | 610 | relationship | 0.970 | https://censusindia.gov.in/nada/index.php/catalog/31311/download/34492/1422_1951_POP.pdf | for the purpose of general comparison these two changes have been treat(.d as compensating for each other. | 37 | page=37,block=2 |
| What can be assumed about the accuracy of the 1951 census figures based on the logistic curves? | the present figures can be assumed to be reasonably accurate | scientific investigation in Mr. A. E. Porter's Report on the Census of Bengal in 1931. Curves which fit figures for 1872, 1881, 1891, and 1901 show differences of less than 2% on the figures for 1911, 1921 and 1931 although the 1921 census shows a shortfall and the 1931 census an excess as would be expected from the conditions explained above!. Where therefore the figures of the censuses upto 1911 lie on the same curve as those for 1931 and 1951, the present figures can be assumed to be reasonably accurate, and the extent of any large error in 1941 can be roughly estimated. In the notes which follow a simple comparison has been made between 1951 Census data of each province and the figures of previous Censuses. In the time available, however, it is not possible, in this interim publication, to carry out exhaustive research. That must be left to the full Report on the Census of 1951. | 451 | relationship | 0.970 | https://censusindia.gov.in/nada/index.php/catalog/31311/download/34492/1422_1951_POP.pdf | Where therefore the figures of the censuses upto 1911 lie on the same curve as those for 1931 and 1951, the present figures can be assumed to be reasonably accurate, and the extent of any large error in 1941 can be roughly estimated. |

| What event is associated with the population increase in Sind Province reflected in the 1941 census? | the immigration which followed the completion of the Sukkur Barrage Irriga- tion projects | Total Population.-State- ment ' T' shows the wide fluc- tuations which have occurred in the total enumerated popula- tion of Sind Province. The figures for the years 1901 to 1941 are based on the census figures of the old Province of Sind, less an allowance in res- pect of the area, including the City of Karachi, which has been taken from the Province to cre- ate the Federal Capital Area. The 1921 figure is obviously low as might be expected in view of the severity of the influenza epidemic in this Pro- vince, while the 1931 figure is probably near the truth. The 1941 figure reflects the increase caused by the immigration which followed the completion of the Sukkur Barrage Irriga- tion projects, although possibly there may also have been some degree of inflation.

| What events are noted to have influenced the population figures in East Bengal between 1941 and 1951? | a severe famine and the communal movements due to Partition | The figures in State- ment ' C ' show that the main body of Hindus in the Baluchistan States have remained and were enumerated in 1951. Total Population.-The comparison of the total population of East Bengal shown in succeeding censuses, set out in Statement 'D' makes approximate allowances for the changes in area which have taken place as a result of Partition. Figures for Sylhet have been included on an estimated basis. The decennial variations are interesting. The high figure in 1941 and the low one in 1951 are both largely reflections of the conditions under which the 1941 consus was taken. The 1941/51 decade, however, included a severe famine and the communal movements due to Partition. | 640 | relationship | 0.970 | https://censusindia.gov.in/nada/index.php/catalog/31311/download/34492/1422_1951_POP.pdf | The 1941/51 decade, however, included a severe famine and the communal movements due to Partition. | 31 | page=31,block=6 | 0.700 | valid |
