What are the improvements in IRS 2019
Electronic C form- starting address of the survey with location details
This contains the details of State, district, taluka with details of the polling booth address to identify the location.
This C form is automated
The program identifies the selected voter from the Electoral polling data
Looks for the same house number and the same surname of the selected voter
Copies the addresses in the C form
The advantage is to have a centralized data base
Makes the analysis more efficient. This is done digitally.
The household interview and individual interview of the same person
Booster samples selected from Same locality.
The questionnaire is improved to reduce the fatigue level of the respondent.
The household questionnaire is divided into two parts.
All India households increased by 4% increase over IRS 2017
