It was thus pertinent to know the quality of life of the people in the villages, which in turn largely depended on the facilities available to the villages.\n\nAlso, policy interventions aimed at improving the quality of life in the villages demanded information on the facilities available to the people of rural India.\nInformation on the availability of various infrastructural facilities in the villages used to be collected by the National Sample Survey, more or less regularly, till the NSS 22nd round. Thereafter such information had been collected only in a few NSS rounds. During the NSS 47th round (July-December 1991), the main subject of which was \u2018Disability and Culture\u2019, a detailed survey on the facilities available to the villages was conducted. Similar information on village facilities was also collected along with the listing operations during the 52nd round (1995-96).\n\nSince then there was not much information collected on the village facilities in India. Therefore, urgent need was felt by the Government to undertake the collection of information on village facilities led to an enquiry on availability of facilities in villages through the 58th round of NSS (July-December 2002).\n\nThe enquiry included the collection of  of various infrastructural facilities in the village. the main thrust was on availability of some general facilities to the villagers like electricity connection, drinking water, government development programmes, etc., and also some specified\nfacilities relating to education, health and rehabilitation of the disabled persons."},"method":{"data_collection":{"data_collectors":[{"name":"Field Office Division (NSSO)","abbr":"FOD (NSSO)","role":"","affiliation":"Minstry of Statistics and PI, Govt. of India"}],"sampling_procedure":"Broad sample design (rural): A stratified multi-stage design was adopted for the survey of the NSS 58th round. The first stage units were 1991 Census villages (Panchayat wards for Kerala) in general and 1981 Census villages for Jammu & Kashmir. Normally, the rural areas of each district formed a stratum. Wherever the rural population of a district exceeded a certain limit, the district was divided into a number of strata. The sample villages were selected with probability proportional to population (except for special strata consisting of small villages where simple random sampling was done), in the form of two independent sub-samples from each stratum. In all, 4646 sample villages were surveyed at the all-India level in this round.\n\nOutline of Sample Design: A stratified multi-stage design was adopted for the conduct of the NSS 58th round. The first-stage units were census villages (panchayat wards for Kerala) in the rural sector. \n\nSampling Frame for First-Stage Units: For the rural sector, the list of Census 1991 villages (panchayat wards for Kerala) constituted the sampling frame, except in the case of J & K where Census 1981 villages formed the frame.\n\nStratification :\nRural sector: Two special strata were formed at the State\/ UT level on the basis of the population census of 1991, viz.\nStratum 1: all FSUs with population between 0 and 50, and\nStratum 2: FSUs with population more than 15,000\nSpecial stratum 1 was formed if at least 50 such FSUs were found in a State\/UT.\nSimilarly, special stratum 2 was formed if at least 4 such FSUs were found in a\nState\/UT. Otherwise, such FSUs were merged with the general strata.\nFrom the remaining FSUs (not covered under strata 1 & 2) general strata (hereafter, stratum will refer to general stratum unless otherwise mentioned) were formed and numbered 3, 4, 5, etc. (even if no special strata had been formed). Each district of a State\/UT was normally treated as a separate stratum. However, if the provisional population of the district was greater than or equal to 2.5 million as per Census 2001, the district was divided into two or more strata with more or less equal populations as per Census 1991 by grouping contiguous tehsils. However, in Gujarat, some districts were not wholly contained in an NSS region. In such cases, the part of the district falling in an NSS region constituted a separate stratum.\n\nTotal sample size (FSUs): A total of 4834 FSUs were selected for survey as the Central sample for the rural sector. \n\nAllocation of rural sample to strata\/ sub-strata: In the rural sector the sample size allotted to a State\/UT were allocated to different strata in proportion to populations of the strata. All the stratum- level allocations were adjusted to multiples of 2.\n\nSelection of FSUs: FSUs were selected in the form of two independent subsamples.\nFor special stratum 2 and all the general strata of the rural sector, FSUs were selected by probability proportional to size with replacement (PPSWR) where size was the 1991 Census population.","sampling_deviation":"There was no deviation from the original sampling design","coll_mode":["Face-to-face [f2f]"],"research_instrument":"Schedule 3.1 consists of the following 7 blocks:\n\nBlock 0: descriptive identification of sample village\nBlock 1: identification of sample village\nBlock 2: particulars of field operation\nBlock 3: availability of some facilities\nBlock 4: distance from nearest facility\nBlock 5: remarks by investigator\nBlock 6: comments by supervisory officer(s)\n\nBlocks 3 and 4 are the main blocks of this schedule.
