Ministry of Rural Development GOVERNMENT OF INDIA

SOCIO ECONOMIC &CASTE CENSUS

2011 IN RURAL INDIA

25th July 2011

Page 20: Socio-Economic and Caste Census Handbook 2011

Foreword

There has been extensive public interest in estimating caste-wise population in the country, and on identifying households living

below the poverty line. The last exercise to identify people living in poverty was conducted in 2002, but had several limitations.

The Ministry of Rural Development Government of India, is now carrying out the Socio Economic and Caste Census (SECC) 2011, between June 2011 and December 2011, through a comprehensive door to door enumeration across the country. This is the fi rst time such a comprehensive exercise is being carried out for both rural and urban India.

The SECC, 2011 has the following three objectives:

1. To enable households to be ranked based on their socio-economic status. State Governments can then prepare a list of families living below the poverty line

2. To make available authentic information that will enable caste-wise population enumeration of the country

3. To make available authentic information regarding the socio-economic condition, and education status of various castes and sections of the population

The shortcomings of the 2002 BPL survey are being addressed comprehensively in the SECC, 2011:

� The entire exercise will be paperless, done on a handheld electronic device (tablet PC). This will drastically reduce data entry errors and enumerator discretion

Page 21: Socio-Economic and Caste Census Handbook 2011

19

� Checks and balances at several levels - from the enumeration stage, to public scrutiny at the Gram Sabha level – will ensure that there is no misreporting

� Almost all of the information will be made available in the public domain

This booklet explains the SECC,2011, as it relates to rural India, and details the entire process in simple language

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. What is the Socio Economic and Caste Census (SECC) 2011?

The Socio Economic and Caste Census (SECC), 2011 is being carried out by the Government of India to generate information on a large number of social and economic indicators relating to households across the country. It will have three important outcomes:

� Firstly, the SECC, 2011 will rank households based on their socio-economic status, so that State/Union Territory Governments can objectively prepare a list of families living below the poverty line in rural and urban areas

� Secondly, it will make available authentic information on the caste-wise breakup of population in the country

� Thirdly, it will provide the socio-economic profi le of various castes

The SECC, 2011 is being conducted simultaneously for rural and urban areas, by the respective State Government and Union Territory Administration, with technical and fi nancial support from the Government of India.

2. Why is the SECC, 2011 being carried out?

� The SECC, 2011 will objectively rank households based on their socio-economic status, which would be the basis for identifi cation of households living below the poverty line

Page 23: Socio-Economic and Caste Census Handbook 2011

21

� This exercise will help to better target government schemes to the right benefi ciaries, and ensure that all eligible benefi ciaries are covered, while all ineligible benefi ciaries are excluded

� Households identifi ed as highly deprived will have the highest inclusion priority under Government welfare schemes

� The last exercise to identify people living below the poverty line was conducted in 2002. Based on the learning from this exercise the methodology has been comprehensively revised to ensure complete coverage, transparency and objective identifi cation of households based on socio economic parameters.

3. When will the SECC, 2011 take place?

� The SECC, 2011 is being conducted between June 2011 and 31st

December 2011

� It was launched on 29th June 2011 in Hazemora Block in West Tripura

4. What is the difference between SECC, 2011 and the Planning Commission estimates of poverty?

The Planning Commission provides estimates of the percentage of the rural and urban population living below the poverty line in different States/UTs. That is, it estimates the “how much” of poverty. The SECC, 2011 on the other hand, will provide information on the “who” of the population living below the poverty line. Thus, for example, the Planning Commission estimate for a State could be that say 55% of the rural population and say 30% of the urban population is living below the poverty line. SECC, 2011 will enable that particular State to identify the households who comprise this 55% and 30% respectively.

Page 24: Socio-Economic and Caste Census Handbook 2011

22

5. Has the SECC, 2011 methodology been pilot tested?

Rural areas: The methodology for rural areas has been fi nalized after fi eld testing several methodologies; and using the recommendations of the Saxena Expert Group as the reference point. The fi eld testing was carried out in two stages. First, a socio-economic census of 254 villages was conducted using a structured questionnaire. Second, a participatory rural appraisal (PRA) technique was used to rank households in the same village according to several well-being criteria. The results of 161 villages spread over 29 states, covering 43,000 rural households have been used to fi nalize the criteria used in the SECC, 2011 for rural areas.

Urban areas: The Planning Commission appointed the Hashim Committee Expert Group to identify the methodology to conduct the SECC in urban areas. The data generated will be analyzed, and on the basis of this, the Committee will determine the methodology for identifi cation of poor households in urban areas.

6. What is the process of conducting the SECC, 2011 in rural areas?

The SECC, 2011 will be conducted through a comprehensive programme involving the Ministry of Rural Development, Ministry of Housing and Urban Poverty Alleviation, The Offi ce of the Registrar General and Census Commissioner, India and the State Governments. The process is as follows:

� Each Collector/District Magistrate will formulate a District/Town Plan and a Communication Plan

� 24 lakh Enumeration Blocks (EB) will be used for the SECC, 2011 - each Enumeration Block has roughly 125 households. These are the same Enumeration Blocks that were formed during the Census 2011. The enumerators will be provided copies of the layout maps and Abridged House List prepared during Census

Page 25: Socio-Economic and Caste Census Handbook 2011

23

2011. This will ensure complete coverage of the area.

� Enumerators will be trained to conduct the SECC, 2011

� Each Enumerator will be assigned 4 Enumeration Blocks, and every 6 Enumerators will be assigned to one Supervisor

� Enumerators will visit every household identifi ed in the Enumeration Block and canvas the questionnaire. They will also reach out to homeless populations (eg. people living in railway stations, roadsides etc)

� A data entry operator will accompany each Enumerator

� The data will be captured directly on an electronic handheld device (a tablet PC). The hand held device will have the scanned images of the forms fi lled up for National Population Register (NPR). This will also ensure complete and accurate coverage

� The information (held in the tablet PC) will be read out to the respondent, who will verify it. A printed acknowledgement slip, signed by the Enumerator and Data Entry Operator will be given to the respondent

� Collected data will be verifi ed in the Panchayat

� After all the information is collected from an Enumeration Block, a draft publication list will be prepared for verifi cation

� Within a week of publication of the draft list, the list will be read out at the Gram Sabha in all rural areas

� Any person can fi le claims/objections and information furnished before designated offi cers for this purpose. The draft list will be made available at the Gram Panchayat, Block Development Offi ce, Charge Centre and District Collector’s Offi ces

� The list will also be uploaded on the NIC/State Government/ MoRD/MoHUPA websites. This will aid transparency and increase accountability

Page 26: Socio-Economic and Caste Census Handbook 2011

9. Who will collect the information in rural areas?

� Enumerators appointed by the State Government will carry out the exercise in each Enumeration Block. They will be accompanied by a Data Entry Operator

� Enumerators will carry with them their appointment letters, and identity card issued by the State authority

� In addition, Enumerators may be accompanied by representatives of the Gram Panchayat, Gram Sabha and other citizens to ensure that data collection is done in a fair and transparent manner, with no scope for individual discretion

� It must be noted that the services of primary school teachers cannot be utilized for this purpose due to the ban imposed by the Right to Education Act, 2009

c. The remaining households will be ranked using 7 Deprivation Indicators. Households with the highest deprivation score will have the highest priority for inclusion in the list of households below the poverty level.

The following are the deprivation indicators:

Page 30: Socio-Economic and Caste Census Handbook 2011

28

12. In rural areas, what data will be made available and where?

All data will be read out in the Gram Sabha and Panchayat following the draft publication list being printed. Subsequently, individual information except for religion, caste and tribe data will be made available in the public domain.

13. What checks and balances will ensure that there is no misreporting or errors? What mechanisms are being put in place for public scrutiny?

A series of measures are being put in place to ensure that there is no misreporting, and to build transparency:

All data will be entered into a hand-held device – reducing the chances of data entry errors, and no possibility of interpolation or falsifi cation of information. It will also greatly reduce the time and resources required for such an exercise.

� Enumerators will read out the information entered after the respondent has answered all questions

� Enumerators may be accompanied by representatives of the Gram Panchayat, Gram Sabha and other citizens to ensure that data collection is done in a fair and transparent manner, with no scope for individual discretion

� After the questionnaire is fi lled in, the Enumerator will read out the information, and give the respondent a signed acknowledgement slip. If the respondent disagrees, he will have the opportunity to plead his case. The Enumerator will conduct a summary enquiry, verify the facts and change the data if found correct. The Enumerator will also report the same to the Supervisor, who will visit the household where such differences are arising

Page 31: Socio-Economic and Caste Census Handbook 2011

29

� The draft list will be made available at the Gram Panchayat, Block Development Offi ce, Charge Centre and District Collector’s Offi ces. The list will also be uploaded on the NIC/State Government/MoRD/MoHUPA websites

� Within a week of publication of the draft list, a Gram Sabha will be convened. At the Gram Sabha meeting, the names and answers of each household will be read out. All claims and objections raised in this meeting will be recorded and dealt with

� Data will be uploaded directly from the Electronic Handheld Devices to the database, removing the possibility of errors and manipulation that can creep in through a manual data entry process

� A list of supervisory bodies (institutions of high standing) is being empanelled to provide overall guidance and supervision to ensure that the data is collected accurately and fairly

14. Why wasn’t the SECC, 2011 conducted under the Census Act, 1948?

Individual particulars conducted under the Census Act, 1948, are kept confi dential. The SECC, 2011 requires putting such statistics (except for caste-related data) in the public domain. However, the SECC, 2011 is being conducted using the same administrative apparatus as used in the decennial population census.

Page 32: Socio-Economic and Caste Census Handbook 2011

30

HOW IS THE 2011 SECC CENSUS BETTER THAN THE 2002 BPL CENSUS?

BPL 2002 SECC 2011 Innovations over BPL 2002

1. Parameters used

BPL population identifi ed with 13 socio-economic indicators resulted in large-scale inclusion and exclusion errors

3 sets of parameters being used to identify BPL population: automatic exclusion, automatic inclusion and ranking based on 7 deprivation indicators

Margin for inclusion/exclusion signifi cantly reduced:· Automatic Exclusion criteria reduces the possibility of trespass of ineligible households into the BPL list· Automatic Inclusion criteria increases the possibility of the most eligible people being included into the BPL list

2. Data verifi cation and public scrutiny

No public verifi cation of information

Verifi cation at Enumeration stage; by Supervisor, Gram Sabha and other State Government Offi ces

Multiple layers of public scrutiny; information can be verifi ed; increased transparency

3. Scoring Method

Complex 52-Point method

4-fold classifi cation with simplifi ed method

Villagers can easily comprehend; simpler to administer; easier to verify; reduced scope of discretion on part of enumerator; does away with disincentive criteria used in BPL Census 2002 (like sanitary latrines etc)

4. Manual vs. Electronic

Data entered manually from printed forms

Direct data entry using a Electronic Handheld Device (Tablet PC)

Paperless exercise increases effi ciency; increased accuracy; no possibility of interpolation and falsifi cation of data

5. Utility of data collected

Data not made available to different Ministries for programme intervention

Data displayed in MIS, fully compatible with AADHAR and NPR. Available for use by different Ministries, States, PRIs, citizens

Transparency; data can be used for scheme targeting across government departments; facilitate research and analysis; public scrutiny

6. Type of Census

2002 BPL done on a stand-alone basis

SECC 2011 being done jointly for rural and urban areas along with Caste Census

Comprehensive database allows for greater usage. Linking caste with the level of economic development while maintaining privacy of caste data allows for better understanding of caste dynamics
