It has been found con l'enient to bind in one vo1ume, · volumes IV and IV-A; VI, VI-A and VI-B; and Vll ·and VII-A. In addition to these, there are six volumes of Statistical Tables (or B volumes) for six Districts in British and administered territory; the Bolan and Chligai Statistical Tables being bound in a single volume. ' Orders regarding the compilation of an Index volume had been passed by the Government of India from tim~ to time and it was finally decided in July• 1903 that ·the preparation of" an Index volume was considered to ··be an essential feature of the Distric_t Gazetteer series and it was laid down that "this volume should refer to all localities, etc., in the Province which will form the subject of Imperial Gazetteer articles ~nd will therefore also appear in the Provincial volume or volumes as well •-Government of India, Home Department, Jetter No. 2741, dated the l!Otb July 1903.

ii as to all places which are described in the A volumes of the District Gazetteers. The divisions, districts, subdistricts, units of administration such as tahsils and ihe more important towns should receive· mention on the lines indicated in Uircular No. 2948-60, dated the 24th September 1902; in the case of inountain ranges, rivers and canals it should be stated what districts they are situated in or pass through ; while in the case of minor entrie~ it will suffice to note the latitude and longitude, the district in which the place is situated and (for towns and villages) the population. · 1)1 every case reference should be made to the volume and page of. the District Gazetteer series in which the place, etc., is referred to, while those places which are also the subject of Imperial Gazetteer articles should be marked with an asterisk." The Local Government considered it desirable to add brief notes about the main tribes of the Province.. The present volume, which forms volume IX of the Baluchistan District Gazetteer series, has been prepared on the plan indicated above and copies of Tables of contents prefixed to the various District Gazetteers have also been embodied in an Appendix. The latter may be found useful in connection· \vith administrative ·and economic subjects which are not mentioned in the first portion of the volume. 'fhe work bas been compiled under my supervision by M. Gul Muhammad, Head Clerk of the Gazetteer office.
