The state of Nagaland reported that 88.38% of the scheduled enumeration forms for the Socio‑Economic Survey have been submitted, marking a significant progress in data collection.
Nagaland's statistical department announced that 88.38% of the enumeration forms required for the Socio‑Economic Survey (SIR) have been received. The survey, conducted periodically, aims to capture detailed household‑level data on income, employment, education and health across the state.
The submission figure was released in a brief statement by the department, which noted that the forms were collected through a coordinated effort involving district officials and local field workers. The data collection phase, which began earlier this year, is now nearing its target, with only a small fraction of households yet to submit their responses.
State officials said the high submission rate will enable more accurate planning of welfare schemes and allocation of resources. They also urged the remaining households to complete the process before the official deadline to ensure comprehensive coverage.
Analysts view the progress as a positive sign for evidence‑based policymaking in Nagaland, especially as the state seeks to address regional disparities and improve socio‑economic indicators.
