Observation

  • Today’s data collection site was Azad Basti, R.K. Puram.
  • It was household survey, we interacted with 1 male and 2 females for collecting the well-being data.
  • We explained to them about our research organisation and the project for which we wanted to talk with them.
  • The respondents then readily agreed to talk to us and shared their information after signing the consent form.
  • One of the respondent was pursuing B.Sc. Computer Science (first year), and was quite aware of current environmental conditions.
  • They were in general happy and satisfied with their lives and conditions of the surroundings.
  • They were not aware of majority of schemes, except for one, but he also said that my father does not like taking money from any such schemes, so they have not enrolled for any scheme.
