Questions and instructions

Pre question

Literal question

How many days has the member stayed away from home during the last 30 days?

Interviewer instructions

The number of days for which the member 'stayed away from home ' during the 30 days preceding the date of enquiry should be recorded here. A continuous absence from home for 24 hours will be reckoned as a 'day stayed away'. That
is, the entry will be made in completed number of days and any fraction of a day will be ignored. The location of the place
where the person stayed, having been away from his/her own household, may also be within the same village/town and staying away will not only mean physical absence but also non- participation in food consumption from his/her own household.
