Popis: Universal Decimal Classification (UDC) by defecto became a knowledge organisation tool, particularly in S&T libraries all over the world. Like DDC updations and revisions, the UDC has also been revised from time to time and incorporates many new classes and changes in the changing context. The third revised edition of UDC in 2005 has many changes. But unfortunately, the common auxiliaries of places, particularly India and its states, are very inadequate even in the recent published edition of UDC. Hence, classifiers and LIS schools all over the country are facing sever problem in assigning the numbers of newly formed states and districts of India. Therefore, this study is an attempt to provide a solution to the above problem by giving a depth schedule for common auxiliaries of places for Indian states, districts, and historically significant entities.http://dx.doi.org/10.14429/djlit.31.6.1316
