    “This is in line with an announcement made by officials of Registrar General of India in April this year, which said that for the first time in the 140 year history of Census in India, the 2021 data collection will be done through a mobile app and enumerators would be encouraged to use their own mobile phone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Meanwhile, the Union Home Secretary Rajiv Gauba also urged caution while using technology for data collection and stressed that data confidentiality should be maintained. India’s last census was carried out in 2011 when the country’s population stood at 121 crore. Shah has said that around Rs 12,000 crore will be set aside for India’s first digital census in 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    According to Economic Times<\/a> :-<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    In March this year, the government announced that the next census will be done with 1 March 2021 as the reference date.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The home minister said India’s population is 17.5 per cent of the world’s total population while the geographical area is just 2.4 per cent of the total geographical area of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    “So, naturally, India has limited natural resources in comparison to the population. Therefore, to fill up this gap of inequality, we will have to work hard,” he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Shah also said the data for the National Population Register (NPR), a list of usual residents of the country, will also be collected along with the census exercise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Officials said the NPR could be the basis for a pan-India version of Assam’s National Register of Citizens (NRC).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
