Residents of Hyderabad’s CURE area have been asked to complete Census 2027 self-enumeration before the May 10 deadline. Officials said door-to-door field verification by Census enumerators wearing blue attire and carrying ID cards will begin from May 11

Hyderabad: With two days remaining, residents of the Core Urban Region Economy (CURE) area have to complete self-enumeration for Census 2027 within the stipulated timeframe ending on May 10, officials of the Directorate of Census Operations said.

The officials said the self-enumeration window was nearing closure and advised eligible participants to ensure their details were submitted before the deadline.

The process of self-enumeration started on April 26 in the CURE area comprising Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC), Cyberabad Municipal Corporation (CMC) and Malkajgiri Municipal Corporation (MMC). It will remain open till midnight on May 10.

The window for the submission of Census information through 33 questions on the self-enumeration portal (https://se.census.gov.in) opens at 6 am.

The second step in self-enumeration is field verification, in which a Census enumerator visits the house and verifies the data. This process will start on May 11 and continue till June 9.

During the process, the enumerator will ask for the Self Enumeration (SE) ID, which consists of 11 digits prefixed with H. The household receives this SE ID after submitting all details on the portal along with the mobile number and e-mail ID.

The enumerator will verify the data filled in by the household across 33 columns. If the details match, the enumerator will confirm the data. In case of any mismatch, the enumerator will collect the data again. The process takes at least 15 to 20 minutes to complete.

Bharati Hollikeri, Director of Census Operations (DCO), Telangana, said the information is secure and will be used only for Census purposes and for state and Central government-related schemes.

Enumerators to wear blue attire for door-to-door visits:

Households were asked to identify enumerators conducting door-to-door visits from May 11 as part of the self-enumeration verification process. They will be wearing blue attire and carrying ID cards issued by the authorities concerned stating that they are government-appointed personnel exclusively for Census enumeration. The enumerators will visit households between 10 am and 6 pm.
