CHANDIGARH: Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini on Thursday formally launched the Census 2027 process for the state by filling out the self-enumeration form online himself.
Through this initiative, he conveyed a message to citizens to actively participate in the census exercise.
The Chief Minister told the media here that the self-enumeration process is simple, secure and time-saving. He said this initiative strengthens the Prime Minister’s vision of ‘Ease of Living’ and ‘Digital India’.
He emphasised that Census 2027 is a significant step towards realising the vision of a ‘Viksit Haryana, Viksit Bharat’, and is not merely a data collection exercise but the foundation for inclusive and equitable development of the state. He said the first phase of the census in Haryana will be conducted from May 1 to 30, during which house listing and the housing census will be carried out.
Prior to this, the facility of self-enumeration has been made available to citizens from April 16 to 30, which he described as a major step towards Digital India.
