Dear all, Finally enumerator did visit me to collect data. He asked me series of questions and I was waiting patiently for Question 9 but he never asked me. He asked me to sign as the exercise was complete. I askhed him that this censes does not have any data on disability and he told me that he is not aware of such questions.
Thanks to Access india; I did remember question 9 and toldhim to read out question 9 to me. He did comply with my request and finally ticked the data on disability. After a brief conversation; he confessed that hhe has not been collecting data on disability and tomorrow would be the last day for collecting data. He also informed me that no sensitization training has been imparted to him or his colleague who is part of this project. I have requested him to please ask question 9 to all homes which he would visit going forward. I am deeply concerned whether this censes would actually reveal correct stats on disability inspite the fact that it is part of their question. Based on my interaction today; it is pretty clear that this official is indeed doing a half hearted job. Thanks and regards Asif Get numbers right this time, help the census with correct disability info! Question 9 relates to disability.
