Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday called on people to actively participate in Census 2027, calling it an important campaign for the country and assuring the citizens that their data will stay protected. Under the campaign, enumerators will be going door-to-door with a mobile app to collect data, he said, urging people to ensure that accurate details are provided to them.
In the 133rd episode of his monthly radio programme ‘Mann Ki Baat’, the prime minister said people can also enter their information themselves. This facility, he said, will be available 15 days before the enumerators visit their residences. Once they complete the process, they will be receiving a special ID on email or mobile, which people can show to the staff to verify their details, he said.
“National census isn’t just a government task. It’s the responsibility of all of us. Your participation is crucial. The information you provide is completely secure, kept confidential. Let’s make Census 2027 a success,” PM Modi said, allying fears over data security for the drive.
