Abstract
Through this schedule, it is aimed to collect information relating to availability of some general facilities to the villagers like electricity connection, drinking water, government development programmes, etc. and also some specified facilities relating to education, health and rehabilitation of the disabled persons. Information in this schedule relate to the entire sample village (Panchayat ward in Kerala) even if hamlet-group formation has been resorted to. If a facility is available in general to the villagers, it is considered as a facility. The required information has been obtained by contacting the village officials and / or other knowledgeable person(s). In case they were not aware of the existence of a particular facility, the nearest Block Development Officer or other related Agencies were contacted for collection of the relevant information.Kind of Data

Notes
A large section of India's population lives in rural areas. 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.Also, policy interventions aimed at improving the quality of life in the villages demanded information on the facilities available to the people of rural India.
Information 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 ‘Disability and Culture’, 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).
Since 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).
The 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
facilities relating to education, health and rehabilitation of the disabled persons.
