The Census of India has\n                been the richest source of language data collected and published at the successive\n                decennial censuses for more than a century. The language data is particularly useful in\n                the country having diverse people since no separate question is asked on their ethnicity\n                except in respect of the scheduled tribes. The language data having the ethnic and\n                linguistic characteristics of the population has thus been an indiscreet source of\n                information. The presentation of the language tables has been progressively improved in\n                terms of lucidity, detail to make it more comprehensible besides being user-friendly","series":"LANGUAGE","ref_country":[{"name":"India","code":"IND"}],"languages":[{"name":"English","code":"EN"}],"rights":"Office of the Registrar General & Census Commissioner, India (ORGI)","keywords":[{"name":"Language"}]},"files":[{"file_uri":"C-16_25062018.pdf"}],"tags":[{"tag":"LANG","group":"Census_year"}],"resources":[{"resource_id":"46089","dctype":"Document [doc\/oth]","dcformat":null,"title":"C-16_25062018.pdf","author":null,"dcdate":null,"country":null,"language":null,"contributor":null,"publisher":null,"rights":null,"description":null,"abstract":null,"toc":null,"filename":"https:\/\/censusindia.mha.gov.in\/nada\/index.php\/catalog\/42458\/download\/46089\/C-16_25062018.pdf"}]}
