The first phase of the Census 2027 in Chhattisgarh will commence on May 1 and continue until May 30. This initial phase, known as the House Listing and Housing Census, is essential for gathering detailed data about residential and non-residential buildings, including their usage and available amenities. In a notable shift towards modernization, this census will be India's first fully digital initiative, allowing enumerators to collect data directly via mobile devices. Citizens can also participate through a self-enumeration process available from April 16 to April 30, where they can submit household information online and receive a unique Self-Enumeration ID for verification. The census aims to ensure confidentiality of all collected data, which will not be disclosed under the Right to Information (RTI) Act. This census marks India's 16th national census and the eighth since independence, following the last one conducted in 2011.
