Interviewer instructions

For the aged persons who are not economically dependant on others, information on the number of persons depending economically on them is to be collected and recorded against this item. In other words, through this item the number of dependants of an economically independent aged person will be collected. It may be noted that a dependant need not necessarily be the household member. '0' may be entered for a person if he does not have anyone dependent on him. However, the domestic servants, paying guests and employees residing in the household will not be considered for counting the number of dependents.
