LGD codes = Census 2011 codes?

[Sharad Lele]

Folks, today in a meeting at Ministry of Tribal Affairs, the Addl Secy said that "the new portal for tracking benefits to tribal villages is using LGD codes, and henceforth all other data should be linked to these codes"

Now, I presume LGD=local govt directory codes. But when I look at data shared by various folks via datameet, I see that the LGD codes are the same as Census 2011 codes. Am I right? or is there a more exhaustive list of 'settlements/hamlets' with some longer/different code?

Btw, the portal he mentioned was the "Gati Shakti" portal (that supposedly uses LGD codes)

Dear Sharad,

The Central Government has an initiative for all state to have their Local Government Directory for each and every revenue village. In the LGD Codes Most of the Villages have the same number as the Census Code 2011. It is a six digit number code for each and every village of the State. Some of the states have continuous processes to update the LGD Code.

Otherwise, you have mentioned regarding "GatiShakti Project". I would like to know do you have GIS Layer List of GatiShakti Project. If yes, requesting you to please shared the same with me.

Thank you

Sarvesh Wagh

Thanks, Sarvesh. So if the LGD code is the same as Census 2011 (which is also a 6 digit code), then there is no room to add any additional digit for hamlets within a revenue village...

Regarding Gatishakti: i looked up the portal, and there is nothing there :-) I could not get into any of the statewise portals or anything. So what GIS layers they have etc I have no idea :-)

Better you check Census data available on census website and LGD data you can download from lgddirectory website. And matches them .
