Foreword
I am delighted to learn that Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics (BBS) has successfully completed the
‘District Statistics 2011’ under Medium-Term Budget Framework (MTBF). The initiative of publishing
‘District Statistics 2011’ has been undertaken considering the importance of district and upazila level
data in the process of determining policy, strategy and decision-making. The basic aim of the activity is
to publish the various priority statistical information and data relating to all the districts of Bangladesh.
The data are collected from various upazilas belonging to a particular district.
The Government has been preparing and implementing various short, medium and long term plans and
programs of development in all sectors of the country in order to realize the goals of Vision 2021. For
any pragmatic approach in formulating and evaluating development plans and programs reliable
statistics are indispensible. BBS has been performing the major responsibility of supplying
comprehensive and accurate statistics at the national level.
The present government, in line with its commitment to decentralize administration, has declared
upazila as the focal point of administration regenerating upazila parishad through participatory
elections. However, upazila level official statistics are still very inadequate. It is praiseworthy that BBS
has undertaken timely program of publishing ‘District Statistics 2011’ where data representing socio-
economic characteristics of upazilas of all districts will be available. I am confident that this publication
will be of invaluable help to the planners, administrators, researchers, field level officers as well as
other users. Various government, non-government and international organizations closely related to
policy formulation and implementation may also find this publication useful.
I sincerely thank Mr. Golam Mostafa Kamal, Director General, BBS for bringing out the publication of
‘District Statistics 2011’. I hope that in future ‘District Statistics’ will be published in much more
improved form to make it more effective and informative.

Preface
The ‘District Statistics 2011’ is mainly a compilation work of Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics (BBS).
The decentralization policy of government has enhanced demand for timely, qualitative and
comprehensive statistical data both for administrative and development requirements. The major
regular publications of Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics like Statistical Pocketbook of Bangladesh,
Statistical Yearbook of Bangladesh and Agricultural Yearbook of Bangladesh provide aggregate data
mainly at the national and regional level. Data for smaller administrative unit like upazila often remains
absent in such publications. The ‘District Statistics 2011’ emphasises to provide upazila level data.
The ‘District Statistics 2011’ provides both structural and flow-type information of almost all of the
priority sectors of our national economy depending on data availability both from published and
unpublished sources.
The publication of ‘District Statistics 2011’ would have not been feasible without the wholehearted co-
operation of the various government, semi-government, autonomous, non-government offices and other
organizations. In particular, the district and upazila level officials extended their total support and
supplied all data. I like to express my sincere thanks to them and hope such co-operation will continue
in future.
I am obliged and grateful to Mr. Md. Nojibur Rahman, Secretary, Statistics and Informatics Division
(SID) for his enormous support and advice to prepare and to finalize this important publication. My
sincere thanks also go to all officers of SID for their wholehearted support and sincere co-operation
towards accomplishing this document.
I acknowledge the contributions of Mr. Md. Mizanur Rahman, Deputy Director General, BBS and Mr.
Ghose Subobrata, Director, FA & MIS, BBS during development of the Document.
The regional and upazila statistics officers of BBS actively participated in preparation of the report. I
thank them all. Finally, I thank Mr. Iftekhairul Karim, Focal Point Officer and Mr. Nasir Uddin
Ahmmed, Deputy Director & Ex.Focal Point Officer as well as staff members of Bangladesh Bureau of
Statistics for their untiring efforts in making the ‘District Statistics 2011’ a success. Through user’s
interaction and feedback, we hope to improve the coverage and quality of information contained in this
edition. Any suggestion for improvement of the publication will be highly appreciated.

Province. The district was created in 1947 with the partitioning of India and Pakistan. At that time,
Kushtia was consisted of the Kushtia Sadar (Kushtia City), Chuadanga and Meherpur
subdivisions.Later on,each of these subdivisions was converted to a separate district.It is generally
believed that the District Kushtia might have derived its name from the word ‘Kushta’ meaning Jute
which was abundantly grown in this area.

had a railway connection with Kolkata, capital of British India since 1860. It made the town an
alluring location for mills and factories, including the Jagneshwar Engineering Works (1896),
Renwick and Company (1904), and the Mohini Mills (1919).Shalghar Madhua in Kushtia district
was one of the forerunners of the Indigo Resistance Movement.He inspired all indigo farmers in
Kushtia to refrain from paying government taxes subsequently the publication of the Indigo

Concepts and Definitions
1. Population and Housing Census 2011
The population and housing census is the unique source of reliable and comprehensive data about
the size of the population of the country, major socio-economic and socio-demographic
characteristics.
It is the total process of collecting, compiling, evaluating, analyzing and publishing or otherwise
disseminating demographic, economic and social data pertaining, at a specified time, to all persons
in a country. The essential features of a population census are individual enumeration, universality
within a defined territory, simultaneity and defined periodicity.
The population and housing census provides information on the geographic and administrative
distribution of the population and household in addition to the demographic and socioeconomic
characteristics of all the people in the country. The data from the census are classified, tabulated
and disseminated so that political leaders, election officials, planners, national organizations
including NGOs and civil society, regional and international organizations can use the data in
decision-making.
The purpose of community report is to disseminate census data by communities (ward/mahalla in
urban area and union/mauza/village in rural area). Data on all key variables namely area,
household, population by sex and age group, ethnic population, literacy rate, marital status, school
attendance, employment status and religion as well as physical facilities such as source of drinking
water, sanitation, electricity and dwelling units have been presented in this report. The planners,
researchers and policy makers as well as development partners and community administrators will
find this report as a valuable reference for use in advising plans and programs for advancing
welfare and well-being of the common people, in particular and the community in general.
Household
Persons, either related or unrelated, living together and taking food from the same kitchen
constitute a household. A single person living and eating alone forms one-person household.
Literacy
It denotes ability to write a letter in any language. Literacy status assessment is made for
population 7 years and over.
Community
It refers to the following five lower geographic, administrative or revenue units:
i) Union: Smallest administrative rural geographic unit comprising of mauzas and villages and
having union parishad institution.
ii) Mauza : Mauza is the lowest administrative unit having a separate jurisdiction list number (J.L.
No.) in revenue records. Every mauza has its well-demarcated cadastral map. Mauza should be
distinguished from local village since a mauza may consist of one or more villages.
iii) Village: Lowest rural geographic unit either equivalent to a mauza or part of a mauza.
5
iv) Ward: Smallest administrative urban geographic unit comprising of mahallas and having ward
council institution.
v) Mahalla: Lowest urban geographic unit having identifiable boundaries.
Urban Area
It corresponds with area developed around a central place having such amenities as metalled roads,
improved communication, electricity, gas, water supply, sewerage, sanitation and also having
comparatively higher density of population with majority population in non-agricultural
occupations.
i) City Corporation: It includes city corporation area declared by the Ministry of Local
Government.
ii) Paurashava/Municipality Area: It includes paurashavas incorporated and administered by
local government under Paurashava Ordinance, 1977.
2. Agriculture Census year and reference period
The census year extends over twelve consecutive months having for different census items the
different reference periods or days of data collections. Some items have a year or week reference
period. Some others have a specific reference day.
The census year covered twelve months from 1 Baishak to 30 Choitra, 1414 Bangla Shal (BS). The
year was the reference period for such census items as operated land use, crops, agriculture
employment, livestock & poultry deaths and agriculture loan. A single reference day was used for
items like holdings, farm size, land tenure, farm population, livestock & poultry inventories and
agriculture implements.
The different census items by their reference periods or days are shown below:
Agriculture holding
An agriculture holding is a techno-economic unit of agricultural production under single
management comprising all livestock kept and all land used wholly or partly for agricultural
production purposes without regard to title, legal form or size. Single management may be
exercised by either an individual holder or jointly by two or more individuals or holders or by a
judicial person such as a corporation, co-operative or government agency. A holding may consist
of one or more parcels (fragments of land) located in one or more areas or mauzas or in more than
one administrative unit or division provided that all separate parcels of fragments form parts of
same technical unit under operational control of same management.
The definition covers practically all holdings/households engaged in agricultural production of
both crops and livestock. Some agriculture holdings may have no significant agricultural land, e.g.
holdings keeping livestock, poultry and hatcheries for which land is not an indispensable input for
production.
Farm holding
A farm holding is defined as being an agricultural production unit having cultivated land equal to
or more than 0.05 acres. Farm holdings are classified into following three broad groups:
6
(a) small: Farm holdings having minimum cultivated land 0.05 acre but operated land more than
this minimum but upto 2.49 acres.
(b) medium: Farm holdings having operated land in between 2.50 to 7.49 acres.
(c) large: Farm holdings having operated land 7.50 acres and above.
Small cultivated land 0.04 acre or less is generally used for kitchen garden growing mainly
vegetables. Often seeds of white gourd, water gourd, pumpkin and other strains are sown on
households; but these creepers spread out around house roofs and other structures. As such, the
minimum cultivated land considered for qualifying to be a farm holding is 0.05 acres.
Non-farm holdings
A non-farm holding is defined as being the one which has neither cultivated nor operated land or
has cultivated land less than 0.05 acre.
Tenancy
Owner holdings are those having and operating their owned land and who may or may not be
leasing out land.
Tenant holdings are those having no owned land but operating land taken from others on share
cropping basis or on other terms.
Owner-cum-tenant holdings are those having owned land and who may or may not be leasing out
their own land to others and who may be taking land from others on share cropping basis or on
other terms.
Agriculture work
Agriculture work signifies all activities of holder and his/her labour force doing planning,
management, and operation of a holding. It includes land preparation, sowing, weeding, harvesting,
feeding and tending livestock & poultry, kitchen gardening, supervising agricultural workers,
keeping farm records & accounts, preparing agriculture products for marketing (including
packaging), repairing farm equipment, constructing farm buildings & fences, and engaging in land
reclamation and improvement and other related activities. It excludes home and other family
domestic chores.
Area under pond
The pond area remains under water almost through out the year. Normally, households use pond
water for various domestic and sometimes agriculture purposes. Ponds are also generally used for
fish culture.
In the census the pond area data were collected separately for both single ownership and joint
ownership of households.
Area under temporary crops
It is the land area planted to crops having growing cycle or length of life less than one year. These
are the temporary crops such as paddy, wheat, jute, cotton, tobacco, sugarcane, pulses, oil seeds,
potato, vegetables and other seasonal crops. A list of temporary crops for which data were
collected separately was given in back page of “Tally Sheet”. The minimum area recorded for a
7
temporary crop was 0.01 acre. Area under temporary crops and temporary-crops net area are
equivalents.
Area under permanent crops
It is the land area planted to crops which remain standing for a long period of time and do not need
to be replanted after a seasonal harvest. Mango, jackfruit, coconut, guava, lemon, and other fruit
varieties are all permanent crops.
Current fallow
It is land brought into cultivation but left out uncultivated in census year for fertility regaining and
improvement or for other reasons.
Net cultivated area
This is land area actually cropped during the census year regardless of number of crops grown plus
current fallow. It includes areas under temporary and permanent crops and also current fallow.
Permanent fallow
It is land not available for cultivation due to coming into residence and commercial & other uses.
Play ground, graveyard, wild shrubs and jungles, marshy land, and the like fall in this category.
Irrigated area
This is area of total land brought under irrigation coverage for growing crops with irrigations done
through mechanical or manual means. Irrigated area classifications fall into two categories: (1)
surface water irrigation with main water sources being rivers, canals, beels, ponds, and other water
bodies; and (2) underground water irrigation with water lifted by shallow tube-wells, deep tube-
wells, and country traditional devices. The irrigation equipments are run by electricity, diesel or
petrol, or manual labour.
Cattle and Buffalo
Cattle and buffalo heads owned by households on day of enumeration were counted.
Goats and Sheep
Goats and sheep owned by households on day of enumeration were counted.
Fowls, Ducks and Pigeons
Fowls, ducks, and pigeons owned by households on day of enumeration were counted.
Temporary crops gross area
Areas aggregated for all temporary crops grown in the census year have made temporary crops
gross area greater than temporary crops net area since the latter has within it the same land
cropped more than once in different seasons of a year.
Intensity of cropping
It is percentage of temporary crops gross area in comparison with temporary crops net area. It is
expressed as follows:
Temporary crops gross area
Intensity of cropping = × 100
Temporary crops net area
