Residents in Delhi are urged to join the current self-enumeration for Census 2027 via the Census portal, while being cautious against scams. The initiative, crucial for accurate demographic data, includes migrants and tenants, emphasizing the importance of data security against fraudulent activities asking for sensitive information.

Residents of Delhi's Municipal Corporation wards are encouraged to participate in the city's ongoing self-enumeration exercise for Census 2027. The initiative, which started on Friday, aims to gather accurate data and includes everyone, notably tenants and migrants, officials reported.

Authorities stress the importance of participating in the exercise, as it captures a realistic demographic profile critical for city planning. However, they warn against fraudulent activities tied to the Census, with reports of scams seeking OTPs or bank details under fraudulent pretenses.
