Hi all, Question on disability will be asked only at the time of census which will be Feb 2011. What's happening now is houselisting (type of house, bathroom, water etc) which happens every census) and for the first time National Population register enumeration (this will feed into the unique id project headed by Nandan Nilekani)
These links will explain things better than I did ;-) Questions asked in the first 2 rounds SIMPLE EXPLANATION: http://www.karnatakaspider.com/resources/3525-Census-Karnataka.aspx FAQs http://indiacurrentaffairs.org/census-of-india-some-frequently-asked-questions/ EXHAUSTIVE RESOURCE http://nprindia.blogspot.com/2010/05/home-ministers-statement-on-census-2011.html Data to be collected in Houselisting Operations The Enumerators will collect various data on households, they are : House numbers Condition of the house Total number of residents Sex Ownership status of the house Availability of drinking water Source of drinking water Latrines within the premises Type of latrines Waste water outlet Kitchen Fuel used for cooking, radio TV Computer/laptop Telephone Cell phone Bicycle Scooter/moped Car/jeep/van, and Availability of banking services Data to be collected for National Population Register [NPR] The data for NPR is also collected along with the Enumeration data from April 15th to June 1st, there are around 15 questions to be asked for the sake of NPR, they are : Name of the person Relationship to head Father's name Mother's name Spouse's house Sex Date of birth Marital status Place of birth Nationality as declared Present address of usual residence Duration of stay at present address Permanent residential address, and Occupation/activity and education qualification [Hence the responsibility of the residents to give only authenticated data, as the NPR in turn help the citizens to provide UID, which is nothing but our own identity.] On 11 May 2010 16:39, <accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in> wrote: > Send AccessIndia mailing list submissions to > accessindia@accessindia.org.in > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > > http://accessindia.org.in/mailman/listinfo/accessindia_accessindia.org.in > > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in > > You can reach the person managing the list at > accessindia-ow...@accessindia.org.in > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of AccessIndia digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
