Mini International Neuro-psychiatric Interview (M.I.N.I 6.0) were utilised.<br />
• After a rigorous 8 week training and micro-planning effort, field data collectors undertook<br />
door to door interviews. The training was participatory and the different methods included<br />
class room sessions, training in the hospital (observation and demonstration <strong>of</strong> interviews),<br />
and training in the community (both supervised and independent) and hands-on training in<br />
data collection on tablets.<br />
• Information was captured on handheld devices and strict protocols were established for<br />
data transfer and management with access controlled mechanisms.<br />
• To ensure quality apart from rigorous training, weekly and fortnightly review and problem<br />
solving meeting were held both locally and with NIMHANS team.<br />

provided to the state team during fortnightly e-reviews. More than 200 such e-meetings<br />
were held during the survey period.<br />
