Hi!

Is there a way to get district identifiers in the NFHS-3 round? There is a variable for state identifier in the dataset but I doubt any information at the district level is available.

Thank you so much.

Now i am planning to use NFHS 2(1998-99). I have downloaded the data but it does not have documents which actually explain the structure of data given in files. Can you share some documents which may help in understanding this round.
