four major source types of drinking water. The four major types
of drinking water source are tap, handpump, tubewell and well.
The remaining types of drinking water source have been combined
and shown as ‘all others’. 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 Scheduled Tribe
