Following is a response from Senior Data Processing Specialist, Noureddine Abderrahim:
The village questionnaires in India 1992 and 1998 are not the same. In 1992, the education facilities are all called V15. However, the index that accompany the variable V15 indicates which education facility is concerned. V15$1 is primary school (V13A in 1998), V15$2 is middle school (V13B in 1998), ...
The distance asked is the distance from the village to the facility, which might be in another location than the village interviewed. 1 is 1 km from the village, 29 is 29 km from the village,...
95 and 0 mean the same thing: that the facility is located inside the village not outside. They both mean 0 km from the village.
