Census 2027 to Begin in Snowbound Regions with Ladakh Leading Enumeration
The Census 2027 in India will begin in snowbound regions like Ladakh, Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, and Uttarakhand from September 1 to 30, with Ladakh set to complete enumeration first. The Registrar General of India has issued guidelines for forming Enumeration Blocks of about 800 individuals to ensure accurate population counting. Ladakh's census activities, including self-enumeration and population enumeration, will precede the rest of the country, which will start next year using a digital-first approach.
