India - Survey on Migration and Ownership of Land by Non-Tribals in Trible Areas: NSS 44th Round, Schedule 29.3, July 1988 - June 1989

6.6.13 For
obtaining the appropriate response to this question, it has to be ascertained from each member of the household, whether his/her place of enumeration is different from the last ( previous) usual residence. The usual residence for the purpose of this survey has been defined as a place (village or town) where the person has stayed continuously for a period of six months or more. If the answer is in the affirmative, code 1 and if it is in the negative code 2 will be recorded in col. (13). The place of enumeration will, obviously, be his/her current place of stay (destination) and the place (village or town) where the person stayed continuously for a period of six months or more any time in his/her life time prior to moving into the current place of stay (i.e. place of enumeration) will be considered 'the place of last usual residence' (origin). However, it may be noted here that visits of daughter-in-law (staying sometimes more than six months) to their parent's house for child birth or for any other reason will not be considered as migratory movement and, therefore, will not be taken into account for making entries in this column.
