The
Census job: Time to roll up your sleeves - The Economic Times
Extract from the article:
The article
discusses the importance of the upcoming Census job in India, emphasizing the
need for active participation and meticulous data collection.
It highlights the
massive scale of the Census exercise, with the plan to mobilize 33 lakh
enumerators to gather crucial information through door-to-door interviews.
The
cost-effectiveness of the Indian Census compared to global standards is also
underlined, with a focus on the significance of capturing accurate employment
data despite the potential for rapid obsolescence.
My Take:
A. Census
2021: An Unprecedented Opportunity
"Reflecting on
my blog post from 2019 about the Census 2021, the magnitude of this crucial
exercise becomes evident.
The prediction
regarding the revision of job-related questions in the Census form now
resonates with the current emphasis on capturing employment data accurately.
The massive mobilization of enumerators echoes the need for meticulous data
collection highlighted in my earlier blog."
B. Thank
You Shri Amitbhai Shah
"In my blog
from 2022, the call for a MOTIVATOR REWARD Scheme for the Census exercise gains
relevance in the current context discussed in the article.
The emphasis on
voluntary participation aligns with the challenges mentioned in the article
regarding incentivizing e-Census form filling. The proposed morphing of the
Census database into SARAL reflects the ongoing discussions surrounding data
utilization and system enhancements."
Call to Action:
To Shri Rajiv Gauba,
Home Secretary, and Shri Vivek Joshi, considering the scale and significance of
the forthcoming Census exercise, I urge the exploration and implementation of
innovative motivator schemes to ensure active participation and accurate data
collection.
Embracing
technological advancements for seamless data management, as suggested in
previous blogs, can enhance the effectiveness and utility of the Census
exercise.
With regards,
