13

Key Issues – States to Note


Some Observation from Field

Enumerator do not use I Card, Appointment Letter, Lay Out Map, update AHL, carry blank schedule and Stickers are not available

Entry in the household is abrupt with no proper introduction

DEO’s Asks questions and enter Data and Enumerators are Bystanders

Enumerators not noting observations Many times respondents stand and the team sits

comfortably Locating household properly if two same name appear in

AHL

1411


Some Observation from Field

Sometimes Sex of the person has been wrong in earlier data

Some information like mother’s name, father’s name is incorrect sometimes – but that can’t be corrected – so enumerators should note it separately

Questions related to disability, caste, religion are asked in ‘bulk’ and not about individual members as is expected.

Separation/Divorce – local words not used properly PTG – understanding of the term Manual Scavenger = Open Defecation? Legally Released

Bonded Labor = Contractual annual labor?
