Chief Secretary Atal Dulloo chaired a meeting of the Union Territory Level Census Coordination Committee to finalise preparations for Phase II of Census-2027, covering snow-bound areas of Jammu and Kashmir. The exercise will begin with self-enumeration through the official Census portal from August 17 to 31, 2026, followed by door-to-door physical enumeration from September 1 to 30. The Census Moment is midnight of October 1, 2026, with a revisional round from October 1 to 5. The phase will cover 95 administrative charges and 4,146 enumeration blocks across sectors like Doda, Kishtwar, Baramulla, Kupwara, Ramban and Anantnag. Enumerators will use the Census 2027, PE mobile application, supported by a real-time monitoring system. Dulloo directed district administrations to appoint technologically proficient enumerators, ensure comprehensive training, and launch intensive public awareness campaigns in remote areas to achieve accurate and complete coverage.
