Census 2027: Over 5.72 Lakh Households Use Self-Enumeration

More than five lakh households have used the self-enumeration option during the first phase of Census 2027, according to the Registrar General of India on April 10, 2026.

This shows that more people are taking part in the digital process of the census. Self-enumeration allows families to fill in their own details using a safe and secure online portal instead of waiting for officials to visit their homes.

The government introduced this system to make the census process easier, faster, and more convenient for citizens. It also helps in collecting accurate data directly from households.

Officials believe that this growing participation is a positive sign and expect more people to use the online method in the coming phases.

Overall, the move is part of a larger effort to modernize the census process and increase public involvement through digital technology.
