The census operation has commenced in Chennai Corporation limits; starting first with the Governor Surjit Singh Barnala at the Raj Bhavan on Tuesday. About 7,763 enumerators are starting the house listing and housing census work in all the 10 zones. Each enumerator would have to cover 150 census houses by July 15, which roughly works out to 11, 64,450 census houses. Apartment complexes with one door number would be counted as one census house. Enumerators have been pooled in from local body officials, State and Central government employees and teachers, including those from aided schools; all the enumerators have been provided with Maps by the Census Directorate.

The enumerators would also be collecting details for the National Population Register. The NPR provides an option for the citizen to record the name in a manner he/she desires. Director of Census Operations, Tamil Nadu, and S. Gopalakrishnan requested all residents to provide details required by the enumerators for filling up the Census 2011 and NPR schedules.

Advice to public: Please check the ID of the Enumerators before permitting them and take acknowledgement card from the enumerators, which should be preserved for future use. Please provide true and accurate details.
