For the households which did not get sufficient drinking water throughout the year from the first source (most often used source), information will be collected regarding the calendar months of the year during which availability of drinking water was not sufficient from the first source. 12 cells have been provided against this item to record information for all the 12 calendar months of the year. Each cell is earmarked, with the name of the month written at the top of the cell to enter the code for eligible month. Code '1' will be recorded in the cell for the calendar month if availability of drinking water was not sufficient in that month. The cell(s) corresponding to the calendar month(s) will be left blank for which availability of drinking water was not considered not sufficient during the year.
