and sub-national levels.

The field investigation consists of continuous enumeration of births and

deaths by a resident part time enumerator

An independent survey every six months by an official.

The data obtained through these operations are matched.

The unmatched and partially matched events are verified in the field and

thereafter an unduplicated count of births and deaths is obtained.

The sample unit in rural areas is a village or a segment of it if the village

has a population of 1500 or more.

In urban areas the sample unit is a census enumeration block with a

population ranging from 750 to 1000.
