Definition

Sampling frame for First Stage Unit(FSU)
For the rural sector, the list of Census 1991 villages (panchayat wards for Kerala) and Census 1981 villages for J & K constituted the sampling frame.
For the urban sector, the list of latest available Urban Frame Survey (UFS) blocks was considered as the sampling frame.
Selection of FSUs: FSUs were selected in the form of two independent sub-samples in both the sectors. For special stratum 2 and all the general strata of rural sector, FSUs were selected by probability proportional to size with replacement (PPSWR) where size was the 1991 census population. For urban sector and special stratum 1 of rural sector, FSUs were selected by simple random sampling without replacement (SRSWOR).
