Uttar Pradesh will roll out an online self‑enumeration system for Census 2027 on 16 November, allowing residents to submit household data digitally.
The Uttar Pradesh government announced that a dedicated online self‑enumeration platform for the upcoming Census 2027 will become operational on 16 November. The portal enables households to enter demographic and socioeconomic details via a website and a mobile app, reducing reliance on field enumerators.
Officials highlighted that the digital format is expected to speed up data collection, improve accuracy and lower costs. The system supports both Hindi and English and includes a toll‑free helpline to assist users unfamiliar with the process.
The initiative aligns with the central government's push for a technology‑driven census and is being positioned as a pilot that other states may adopt. Authorities have assured that robust encryption and privacy safeguards are in place to protect the information submitted.
Participation is voluntary but strongly encouraged, as the state aims to achieve comprehensive coverage before the national census begins in 2027.
