HAR 31 Jága 4. 101 470 Hardoi.- The population of Hardoi is 931,517, which is 406 to the square mile; it is thus the most thinly peopled district in Oudh, except Kheri and Bahraich. Muhammadans number 85,824, Hindus 845,293. The principal castes and sects of both are given in the following table. There is nothing particularly worthy of note in it, except the great number of the Chamárs, who form 15 per cent of the whole. It is also worthy of remark that the Chamar Gaurs, said to be connected with the Chamárs, have their principal settlement in this district, where they have no less than 217 villages. Of the Hindus in Hardoi 54-1 per cent, are males and 45-9 are females. Of the Musalmans 51 per cent are males and 49 per cent. are females. There is no immigration or emigration to any extent. During the first year after annexation there was a considerable reflux wave of persons who had fled to avoid the oppression of the Nawabi; that has ceased, and there are indications that in time emigration will commence, but it has not assumed any dimensions, Caste Statement of Hardoi district.
