Description

Definition
Survey code : When the original sample village/block (particulars of which are provided in the sample list) is surveyed, survey code will be one of the codes 1 to 3. Code will be 1 when the village/block is inhabited and 2 when it is found to be uninhabited. Code will be 3, when the sample village/block is treated as a 'zero case'. Villages/blocks comprised wholly of barracks of military and para-military forces (like CRPF, BSF etc.), rural areas declared as urban areas and now forming part of UFS frame used for urban sampling, villages/blocks wholly submerged under water in a dam or villages/blocks with the whole population evicted because of acquisition of land to construct a new factory or other project work etc. With no chance of habitation in future. As against this, the village/block whose entire population has shifted elsewhere due to some natural calamities like fire, cyclone etc., but is likely to return in the future, will be considered as uninhabited village/block and will be given code 2. When the original sample village/block is a casualty and it has been substituted by another village/block which is surveyed (inhabited, uninhabited or zero case), the survey code will be 4 if the substitute village/block is inhabited; 5 if the substitute village/block is uninhabited and 6 if it is treated as a zero case. If the substitute village/block cannot be surveyed, survey code will be 7. Code 7 will also be applicable in cases where the originally selected sample village/block is a casualty and no substitute was even asked for.
