India - Land and Livestock Holdings Survey: NSS 48th Round : January - December 1992:Visit-2

when the household surveyed in the first visit, be it the originally selected one or a substitute, is surveyed in the second visit also, the entry against this item will be code '1'. When the household surveyed in the first visit cannot be surveyed in the second, a substitute household will be selected for canvassing the visit-2 schedule, according to the procedure laid down in para 3.14.2. In such cases, the entry against this item of visit-2 schedule will be code '2' and entries in blocks 5. 9 and 9.1 will be made through direct enquiry. If the substitute household is not surveyed, then it will be treated as a casualty and the entry will be code '3' against this item. As in visit one schedule, only the blocks 0 to 4 are to be filled in such cases and the work 'casualty' is to be written in block capitals on the top of the front page of the schedule. When neither the originally selected household nor its substitute is surveyed in the first visit, i.e., it is a casualty in visit-1, efforts should be made in the second visit to locate the originally selected household. If the household (originally selected household in visit-1) is found available for survey in the second visit, both visit-1 and visit-2 schedules will be canvassed in the household during the second visit. In such cases, the entry against survey code in the visit-2 schedule will be code '4' and that in the visit-1 schedule will be code '1'.
