Community-edited; used here only for its cited 1941 Census of India figure (114,890), footnoted in the article to the Census of India, 1941, Vol. 1 (India Census Commissioner) via JSTOR/South Asia Open Archives, which could not itself be fetched directly (403). The 2011 figure it carries (57,264) independently matches the atlas's own existing Census of India 2011 source, cross-checked before this entry was written. Citation
