| What is the purpose of the Sample Registration System (SRS)? | providing reliable annual estimates of birth rate, death rate and other fertility & mortality indicators at the national and sub-national levels. | The Sample Registration System (SRS) is a large-scale demographic survey for providing reliable annual estimates of birth rate, death rate and other fertility & mortality indicators at the national and sub-national levels. Initiated on a pilot basis by the Office of the Registrar General, India in a few selected states in 1964-65, it became fully operational during 1969-70 with about 3700 sample units. The field investigation consists of continuous enumeration of births and deaths in selected sample units by resident part time enumerators, generally anganwadi workers & teachers, and an independent survey every six months by SRS supervisors. The data obtained by these two independent functionaries are matched. The unmatched and partially matched events are re-verified in the field and thereafter an unduplicated count of births and deaths is obtained. | 77 | definition | 1.000 | https://censusindia.gov.in/nada/index.php/catalog/33218/download/37035/SRS_COMP_INDIA_F_M_1971-2013.pdf | The Sample Registration System (SRS) is a large-scale demographic survey for providing reliable annual estimates of birth rate, death rate and other fertility & mortality indicators at the national and sub-national levels.

| What is the Sample Registration System designed to estimate? | annual reliable estimates of birth and death rates at the state and national levels | India & Bigger States Period A sample survey of births and deaths known as Sample Registration System (SRS) is being carried out on continuous basis by the Office of the Registrar General, India in randomly selected villages and urban blocks spread throughout the country. The main objective of the survey is to provide annual reliable estimates of birth and death rates at the state and national levels. It also provides other measures of fertility and mortality including total fertility, infant and child mortality rate for bigger (with population 10 million or more as per 1991 Census) States and the country as a whole.
