Notes

This seems to be generated field for members of the house hold from actually recorded social groupat household level in filed - B3_q5 in Block 3, Level 01. However, if computed from the unit data, this does not match. Seems code for others and Scheduled tribe has been interchanged. Logically others should be more than Scheduled tribe and scheduled caste as this survey is not specific to SC and ST.

There is no document available to explain about it. This field seems to be copied in other block on primary key.

For tables on social group, It is advisable to regenarate this afresh.
