Economic census will be carried out through mobile application, said Deputy Commissioner Dr Bagadi Gautham.

Speaking during a training programme for enumerators on Thursday, he said the census has already commenced in several districts. The census should be completed by March 15. All the organised and unorganised sectors should be included in the census. The census helps in chalking out programmes for the economically weaker sections of the society.

The deputy commissioner directed the enumerators to upload the details in the software. There are 1,117 villages and nine ULBs in the district.
