The survey continued up to 30th June 2009. \n\nThis schedule is designed to collect detailed information on 'domestic tourism' in India through a nationwide household survey in the 65th round of NSS. This will provide a comprehensive assessment of household characteristics, visitor characteristics, trip characteristics and expenditure characteristics in relation to domestic tourism in India. \n\nPrevious surveys\n\n43rd Round (July 1987 - June 1988)\n\nDomestic tourism has not been covered comprehensively in any earlier NSS round. In the past, NSSO undertook an all-India survey covering only a few aspects of domestic tourism in its 43rd Round (July 1987 - June 1988) through a household survey by canvassing Schedule 21 (Travel Habits of Household). In that round, information was collected in two blocks - in the first, for journeys performed during the last 30 days and, in the other, for journeys performed for the purpose of pleasure and pilgrimage during the last 365 days. In both these blocks, information was collected on number of household members who travelled, name of main destination with separate code for whether that destination is 'within the district', 'outside district but within the state', 'outside the state but within the country' or 'outside the country', purpose of visit, type of journey (package\/non-package), mode of transport, place of stay (type of hotel, lodge etc.), duration of absence from the normal place of residence, etc. and whether the tour was subsidised or financed by the employer\/institution. The main objective of that survey was to estimate the volume of domestic tourism movements and to identify the motivations of tourism along with the lodging facilities availed by the tourists. In that survey no information was collected on expenditure incurred by tourists.  \n\n54th round (January - June 1998)\n\nSubsequently, in the 54th round (January - June 1998) of NSS, in Block 7 of Schedule 31 (Common Property Resources, Sanitation & Hygiene, Services) some information on particulars of tours involving overnight stay performed by household members was collected. In that block (details of journeys on tours undertaken by household members ended at any time during the last 60 days and involving overnight stay), information on purpose of journey, mode of journey, distance (one way), duration of journey in hours & minutes, total expenditure on transport and whether the expenditure was subsidised  etc. was collected."},"version_statement":{"version":"V1.0  Re-organised anonymised datasets for public distribution.","version_date":"2012-06-03","version_notes":"DDI and ID field edited by World Bank Development Data Group for it's microdata library."},"study_info":{"abstract":"The economic and social importance of domestic tourism in a country like India, endowed with a splendid cultural and historical heritage, hardly needs to be emphasised. However, tourism, by itself, does not constitute any specific industry or sector in the economy. Rather, it is a composite of several traditional sectors like transport, accommodation, etc. Besides, tourism has linkages with distinct patterns of consumption and expenditure. Therefore, the importance of tourism in the national economy is manifold: in generating employment in various industries like hospitality, handicrafts, transport services etc. It also uniquely serves the purpose of maintenance of familial and social bonds, which is a great Indian tradition. Further, in view of the increase in tourism in recent years, tourism-specific development and investment requirements are also on the rise in the national economy.\n\nThis schedule is designed to collect detailed information on 'domestic tourism' in India through a nationwide household survey in the 65th round of NSS.

The first stage units (FSU) are the 2001 census villages (Panchayat wards in case of Kerala) in the rural sector and Urban Frame Survey (UFS) blocks in the urban sector. For towns with no UFS frame available (to be referred as 'non-UFS towns'), each town has been treated as an FSU. The ultimate stage units (USU) are households in both the sectors. In case of large FSUs, one intermediate stage of sampling is the selection of two hamlet-groups (hgs)\/ sub-blocks (sbs) from each rural\/ urban FSU. \n\nSampling Frame for First Stage Units: \nFor the rural sector, the list of 2001 census villages (the term 'village' means Panchayat wards for Kerala) has constituted the sampling frame. For the urban sector, the list of latest available UFS blocks has been considered as the sampling frame. For non-UFS towns, the list of towns as per Census 2001 has been the sampling frame.\n\nStratification for FSU: \n\nRural sector: \nAll villages of a district will form a separate stratum.\n\nUrban sector: \nIn the urban sector, strata will be formed within each NSS region on the basis of size class of towns as per Census 2001 town population. This departure has been made in the stratification principle in order to facilitate generation of town-class wise estimates to satisfy the requirements of the user ministries. The stratum numbers and their composition (within each region) are given below.\n\nStratum\tComposition (within NSS region)\t\n1\tAll towns with population < 50,000\t\n2\tAll towns with population 50,000 - 99,999\t\n3\tAll towns with population 1,00,000 - 4,99,999\t\n4\tAll towns with population 5,00,000 - 9,99,999\t\n 5, 6, \u2026. \tEach million plus city \t\n\nThe non-UFS towns, if any, within an NSS region will be grouped together to form separate urban strata as per the size classes (in terms of population).\n\nSub-stratification: \nThere has been no sub-stratification in the rural sector and for strata corresponding to non-UFS towns. \n  \nTotal sample size (FSUs): \n12928 FSUs for central sample and 13996 FSUs for state sample have been allocated at all-India level.\n\nAllocation of total sample to States and UTs:  \nThe total number of sample FSUs is allocated to the States and UTs in proportion to population as per census 2001 subject to a minimum sample allocation to each State\/ UT. While doing so, the resource availability in terms of number of field investigators has been kept in view.\n\nAllocation of State\/ UT level sample to rural and urban sectors: \nState\/ UT level sample is allocated between two sectors in proportion to population as per census 2001 with 1.5 weightage to urban sector subject to the restriction that urban sample size for bigger states like Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu etc. should not exceed the rural sample size. A minimum of 4 FSUs is allocated to each state\/ UT separately for rural and urban areas. Further the State level allocations for both rural and urban have been adjusted marginally in a few cases to ensure that each stratum gets a minimum allocation of 4 FSUs.","sampling_deviation":"There was no deviation from the original sampling design.","coll_mode":"Face-to-face [f2f]","research_instrument":"Schedule 21.1 is on domestic tourism and consists of ten blocks with two blocks, viz, Block 5 and Block 6, having two sub-blocks each, namely, Block 5.1 & Block 5.2 and Block 6.1 & Block 6.2 respectively. \n\nBlock 0:   Descriptive identification of sample household \nBlock 1 :  Identification of sample household\nBlock 2:    Particulars of field operations\nBlock 3 :   Household characteristics\nBlock 4 :   Demographic and other particulars for all household members\nBlock 5.1: Particulars of overnight trips completed by household members during  last 30 days\nBlock 5.2: Particulars of same-day trips completed by household members during last 30 days\nBlock 6.1: Particulars of  expenditure ( in Rs.) for latest 3 trips in last 30 days covered in block 5.1 \nBlock 6.2: Particulars of  aggregate expenditure ( in Rs.) for all trips in last 30 days covered in block 5.2 \nBlock 7:    Remarks by investigator\/senior investigator\nBlock 8:    Comments by superintendent\/ senior superintendent\nBlock 9:    Comments by other supervisory officer","weight":"Two different weights have been  provided in each file in the data set.
