Primary source
The active build uses the Chandigarh Census 2011 District Census Handbook village release file stored in the project input directory. It contains 5 village records across 1 districts and 1 Tehsil or Sub-District groups.
Fields used
The generator uses administrative names and codes, village name and code, population, households, area, PIN code, nearest statutory town, selected facility indicators and land-use fields where reported.

- Missing values are not guessed
- A zero is retained when the source reports zero
- Duplicate village names receive comparison pages
- Map coordinates are not created from administrative names
- Same-tehsil links are not presented as distance-ranked nearby villages
