Hi,

I am currently working with the BR file for India. I have a few observations in the data set that have the same line number within a household, that is, the child of mother is not uniquely identified by cluster (hv001), household number (hv002) and the line number of the child in the household. When I look at the case id, I see the respondent of these children are different in the household, that is , it is potentially a response by two different women in the same household. However, the line number of the children by these two women is the same. I wanted to confirm if these observations are a result of an error and need to be dropped. Thank you .
