[amp_mcq option1=”1851″ option2=”1871″ option3=”1901″ option4=”1947 Answer: b” correct=”option2″]<\/p>\n

The correct answer is b) 1871.<\/p>\n

The first modern census in India was conducted in 1871. It was a comprehensive survey of the population of India, and it provided valuable information about the country’s demographics, economy, and social structure. The census was conducted by the British government, and it was overseen by the Census Commissioner, William Wilson Hunter.<\/p>\n

The census was divided into two parts: the first part dealt with the population, and the second part dealt with the economy. The population part of the census included information on the number of people in each district, their religion, caste, occupation, and language. The economic part of the census included information on the number of factories, mines, and schools in each district, as well as the value of agricultural production.<\/p>\n

The census was a major undertaking, and it required the cooperation of a large number of people. The British government appointed census officers to each district, and these officers were responsible for collecting the data. The data was then compiled and analyzed by the Census Commissioner.<\/p>\n

The census was a valuable source of information about India, and it has been used by historians, economists, and social scientists to study the country’s development. The census has also been used by the government to plan for the country’s future.<\/p>\n

The other options are incorrect because they are not the years in which the first modern census in India was conducted.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
