Hello.

So I am comparing the caste information between the IA2, IA3, and IA5 India DHS surveys. So I was trying to correlate the caste data from the IA2,IA3 surveys with the caste data in IA5. I understand that the caste data in IA5 is in the S117 and S118 variables and that there is a separate castedata.zip file. However, the castedata file in IA5 identifies the specific caste names like "Boya" or "Lambadi," while the caste variables v131 in IA2,IA3 just indicate "schedule caste" and "other backward caste," etc. So I was wondering if there is a table that correlates the caste names like Boya to the appropriate designation of schedule caste or backward caste, etc.
Thanks
