To get answer for column 12, the following questions in seriatim will have to be asked from every member of the household of ages five and above.
1. Ask (by entered name) whether the person is going to school or college.
If the answer to Question number 1 [whether attending school or college] is yes then enquire,

b) Specialized

[Pg. 37]
The answer to this question will be any one of the above three categories and relevant code No. 1, 2, or 3 will be entered against this person.
If the answer to Question Number 1 [whether attending school or college] is 'No' then ask the following questions.
3. Whether (ask by enter name) has left the school or college.
If the answer is 'yes' then code No. 4 will be written against the name of this person.
If the answer of this question [whether the person has left school or college] is also 'No' then ask next question.
4. Did (ask by entered name) never go to school or college for education?
If the respondent rightly gave answers to the three questions as 'No' then answer to the question should be 'yes' and in Column 12 code No. 5 should be written.
If someone gives an answer as "No" then ask the initial three questions again to get correct information.
