Sources, geography & interpretation
Census C-16, Odisha, 2011. District code 374; source name Sundargarh. All figures derive from the original workbook retained in our KB. Parent groups contain their individual entries; classification does not determine community-preferred naming.
District figures cannot establish the languages of a particular town, accommodation provider or individual. C-17 multilingualism is statewide and is not apportioned to this district. No migration or ancestry claim is inferred.
Prepared with AI assistance under Ahimanikya Satapathy, Founder & Editor-in-Chief. Community naming and visual review remain open.
