  1. Preparation of Abridged Houselist (AHL) Office of the Director of Census Operations Orissa, Bhubaneswar

  2. Importance of AHL-a permanent document -Why & How AHL is prepared • Abridged Houselist- an essential link between the Houselist and the Population Enumeration. • Provides-basic frame for carrying out the Population Enumeration and for assigning the Household Serial Number to each household in an Enumeration Block (EB). • Helps- ensuring equitable work load to each enumerator. • Assists- in ensuring complete coverage during the population enumeration. • Serves- as a frame for Post-Enumeration Surveys (PES) and other similar multipurpose surveys until the next Census. • AHL- must be filled up carefully. Read the instructions and the instructions in the notes to the Abridged Houselist form itself. • AHL- for Population Enumeration prepared basing on the details from the Schedules filled up during the Houselisting and Housing Census.

  3. Principles for Formation of Enumeration Blocks • AHL-prepared for each Enumeration Block (EB) • Important notes for forming the Enumeration Blocks— • Blocks carved out during Houselisting generally to be kept intact. • EB No. thus, be the same as the Houselisting Block (HLB) No. • In cases the population exceeds 800, Sub-blocks would be formed and the HLB be broken up into two or more EBs. • In such cases, the EB no. would be the same as the HLB No. but in addition, there would be a Sub-Block No.

  4. Formation of sub-block • For HLBs with more than 800 population- • Identify the part of the Houselist Schedule of the particular Sub-block by marking with the red lines. • Carve out the Sub-blocks. • Make use of Lay Out maps for the purpose. • New EBs so formed will have the same number as the original EB- • However, this will have sub-block numbers. • For example- if one EB (say EB No. is 0123) has 2500 population during the House Listing Operation, now divided to 4 EBs, the newly created EBs will bear no. 0123-1, 0123-2, 0123-3, 0123-4. • Give the Sub-block Number like 1,2,3.. in red ink on the relevant portion of Houselist Schedule. • Ensure that the details of all- • buildings, • census houses • households • as in the Houselist Schedule copied into the Abridged Houselist form. • Boundaries of a Sub-block should be identifiable on the ground. • Lay out map of the Houselisting stage should also be used for delineation of Sub-blocks.

  5. Example for formation of Enumeration Blocks During Houselisting & Housing Census For Population Enumeration EB No.123-1 Households: 1 to 150 Population: 700 HLB No.123 No. of households: 400 Population: 1900 EB No.123-2 Households: 151 to 260 Population: 650 EB No.123-3 Households: 261 to 400 Population: 550
