State codes [message #13964]

Hi,

I am working on the recently released DHS 2015-2016/NFHS4- Report. Variable V024(womens recode), MV024(mens recode) and HV024(household recode) should contain information on the participant's Region(1-4)(due to the Recode Manual). But when I open the dataset, the variable has a range of 1-36, suggesting that it is coded for the participant's state. For my analysis, I need a state variable.

Does someone know how the states are coded, i.e. which number represents which state?
Thank you very much in advance!
