Question

17. Statistical tables giving district wise birth and death rates (number of births and deaths per
1000 of population) are obtained from publications of the Census of India 2011 Would you
call them primary or secondary data? Give two reasons in support of your answer.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The district wise birth and death rates should be considered as the secondary data for the Census of the country.

Explanation:

Following are the two reasons for the justification of the answer:

• The census of the country is primarily the count of the people residing in the country at the moment the Census is organised. The birth and death rates of a district (place) will not give us the correct number of the people residing in that area.

• Along with the count of the people, the census also does the calculations for various other factor like, the availability of public amenities, literacy rate of the place, etc. These details will not be provided by the birth and death rates.

Answer 2

Answer:

Statistical tables giving district wise birth and death rates obtained from publications of census of India 2011 is an example of secondary data. This is because these data have already been collected by Census of India in the past and is not collected by the investigator for the first time.
