GK and monthly revision
Census 2027 self-enumeration begins in Assam, suspended in two flood-hit districts
Assam has commenced self-enumeration for Census 2027, marking the first digital census exercise in the state. The process was suspended in two flood-affected districts due to operational challenges. According to the 2011 Census, Assam's population was 3.12 crore, while the final NRC draft in August 2019 recorded 3.3 crore individuals. This census is critical for updating demographic data and informing policy, delimitation, and resource allocation.
