Governor of Nagaland, Nand Kishore Yadav participated in the Self-Enumeration phase of Census 2027 at Lok Bhavan, Kohima on June 16 and appealed to the people of the State to actively take part in this historic national exercise.
On the occasion, the Governor noted that Nagaland has joined the rest of the country in undertaking Census 2027 under the theme “My Census, My Development.” He highlighted that, for the first time, citizens can enumerate their households online during the self-enumeration period from 16 to 30 June 2026, marking a significant step towards a more citizen-centric and digitally enabled Census process.
The Governor stated that Census 2027 is being conducted in a fully digital mode, making the exercise more efficient, inclusive and accessible. He emphasized that as India progresses towards the vision of Viksit Bharat 2047, the Census would provide vital data for development planning and help ensure that government schemes and services reach every section of society. The information collected would support informed policy decisions in sectors such as education, healthcare, infrastructure and social welfare.
The Governor also acknowledged the dedication and commitment of more than 6,100 Census officials deployed across Nagaland and urged them to carry out their responsibilities with sincerity, professionalism and integrity.
