CENSUS OF INDIA 2011

Census of India 2011
Since 1972, the Census of India has been the most comprehensive and unbiased source of data on Population,Economic activity,Literacy,Housing,Amenities,Assets and a variety of socio-economic and cultural parameters. It is the basis on which the past progress of the nation is evaluated, the ongoing progress is measured and the future is planned.
It is for the first time that a National Population Register of usual residents is also being prepared, along with the Census 2011. this would greatly contribute towards furthering the security of the country and allow for better targeting of Government schemes and entitlements.
The success of both these flagship exercises depends on the responses furnished by you. The Census is, therefore, about you, by you and for you. We count on you to make this national exercise a success.
