An analogue to the well-known superpopulation model for finite population is also suggested, using which, we compare the proposed estimator with Hansen and Hurwitz estimator. Finally, an empirical investigation of the performance of the propose estimator has also been made.}, journal = {Journal of Mathematics and Statistics}, publisher = {Science Publications} }
