In preparation for the upcoming Census 2027, intensive inspections were conducted across Karauli district to monitor the progress of the first phase, which includes “House Listing and Housing Census.” The oversight was carried out by officials from the Census Directorate and the district administration to ensure the accuracy and transparency of the data collection process.
Data Collection Across 2,762 Blocks
Enumerators and supervisors have been deployed across 2,762 census blocks in the district. Their primary responsibilities include preparing layout maps, marking house numbers, and collecting detailed information from families. The survey covers 33 critical parameters, including:
- Availability of basic household amenities.
- Total number of family members.
- Number of married couples.
- Materials used in house construction.
All gathered data is being recorded online through the official HLO App.
Official Inspection Details
Senior administrative officials conducted field inspections to verify the work being performed:

Addressing this, the officials issued strict instructions, mandating that all supervisors remain actively present in the field and perform their duties with full responsibility. The administration has emphasized that the census is a matter of national importance, and the work must be completed in a time-bound, transparent, and error-free manner.
