    Abstract

    The National Sample Survey made its first attempt to collect information on the number of physically disabled persons during 15th round (July 1959 - June 1960). The survey on disabled persons (Schedule 26) was last conducted during 58th round of NSS (July – December 2002). Information was collected from the households on the nature of disability, viz. visual, hearing, speech and locomotor, of the household members. Along with these, mental disability was also considered in 58th round.

For each of the household members of age 12 to 59 years, information will be collected on whether receiving/received vocational/technical training. Also, for the household members with at least one disability who received formal vocational/technical training, information will be collected on field of training, duration of training, type of training, source of funding the training, etc.

    Sampling

    Sampling Procedure

    Sample Design

    Formation of sub-units (SUs):

    Rural areas: In usual NSS rounds, large sample villages are divided into a number of sub-divisions called hamlet-groups based on population (approximate present population) of the villages during survey. This procedure is modified in this round. During this round, a rural village will be notionally divided into a number of sub units (SU) of more or less equal population during the preparation of frame. Census 2011 population of villages will be projected by applying suitable growth rates and the number of SUs to be formed in a village will be determined apriori.The above procedure of SU formation will be implemented in the villages with population more than or equal to 1000 as per Census 2011. In the remaining villages, no SU will be formed. The number of SUs to be formed in the villages (with Census 2011 population 1000 or more) of the frame will be decided before selection of the samples following the criteria given below:
    projected population of the village no. of SUs formed
    less than 1200 1
    1200 to 2399 2
    2400 to 3599 3
    3600 to 4799 4
    4800 to 5999 5
    .......and so on ....

    Special case:
    1.4.1.4.1 For rural areas of (i) Himachal Pradesh, (ii) Sikkim, (iii) Andaman & Nicobar Islands, (iv) Uttarakhand (except four districts Dehradun, Nainital, Hardwar and Udham Singh Nagar), (v) Punch, Rajouri, Udhampur, Reasi, Doda, Kishtwar, Ramban, Ladakh region (Leh and Kargil districts) of Jammu and Kashmir and (vi) Idukki district of Kerala, numbers of SUs to be formed in a village will be determined in such a way that each SU contains 600 or less projected population. Further, SUs will not be formed in the villages in the above mentioned districts/States with population less than 500 as per Census 2011. In the remaining villages the number of SUs to be formed for these States/districts will be as follows:
    projected population of the village no. of SUs to be formed
    less than 600 1
    600 to 1199 2
    1200 to 1799 3
    1800 to 2399 4
    2400 to 2999 5
    .......and so on ....

    For rural parts of Kerala, similar procedure as mentioned in para 1.4.1.3 above will be adopted with the modification that the SUs will be formed within Panchayat Wards instead of villages.

    Outline of sample design: A stratified two stage design will be adopted for the 76th round survey. The first stage units (FSU) will be villages/UFS blocks/sub-units (SUs) as per the situation. The ultimate stage units (USU) will be households in both the sectors.
