Tech-Driven Census 2027 promises rapid results

India Jun 12, 2025

Big update: India's next census will ditch the old paper forms and go fully digital, using mobile apps in 16 languages. This should make data collection way faster and more accurate, with results promised just nine months after March 1, 2027—no more waiting years for the numbers.

Real-time tracking to spot issues quickly

Enumerators will use apps (not clipboards), and you can even fill out your own info if you want. Features like dropdown menus and auto-fill help cut down mistakes and speed things up. There'll also be real-time tracking to spot any issues quickly, making this the most tech-savvy census India's ever done.
