CENSUS 2011

WHAT TO DO/LOOK OUT FOR
              In urban areas: enumeration is likely to be taken up during early hours or evenings. If you are suspicious male sure the enumerator shows his/her identity card
              Census 2011 will compile data on date of birth and distance covered between place of residence and work. It is advisable to have such information ready pertaining to all family members
             Answering 29 questions might take 20 - 25 minutes. Be ready to set aside time for this
             Ensure that the completion sticker has been parted on your door/wall after you have answered the questions
             Remember giving false information or not answering questions by the enumerator can attract penalty up to rs 1000
             If no body shows up census, please lodge a complaint with the helpline that is being set up
