Table of 1991 Census: Table H-5
This
table gives cross classification of households by the type of
the drinking water source and its location and the availability
of electricity and latrine facility within the house. This table
excludes institutional households for which the information on
source and location of drinking water and availability of
electricity and latrine was not collected. For the purpose of
this table the data are presented by four major source types of
drinking water while all other sources of drinking water have
been combined and shown as ‘all others’. The four major
types of drinking water source for which the data are separately
shown includes tap, handpump, tubewell and well. The location of
the drinking water source type availed has been indicated as
within the premises, near the premises (i.e., when the available
source type is located within a radius of 100 metres in urban
areas and 500 metres in the case of rural areas) and away.
The drinking water source type has been considered
‘away’ if it is located beyond 100 metres for the households
in urban areas and more than 500 metres for the households
living in rural areas. The table depicts the availability of
electricity and latrine facility to such of the households,
which have particular source type of drinking water available
within the premises, near the premises or away. The data in this
table are presented for total, rural and urban areas separately.
