KOHIMA — The Directorate of Census Operations in Nagaland, partnering closely with the Kohima Press Club (KPC), hosted a high-level media briefing at Hotel de Oriental Grande in Kohima on Tuesday to unveil a fully digitized framework for the forthcoming national population count.
This pivotal administrative shift marks a departure from traditional paper-based data collection methods, aiming to modernize demographic tracking across the northeastern state. By leveraging advanced digital infrastructure, regional authorities seek to eliminate historical bottlenecks, reduce processing timelines, and ensure a more accurate representation of population statistics.
According to reports by the Nagaland Post, the interactive session was specifically convened to brief journalists on the mechanics of the new digital rollout, which notably features a self-enumeration capability. Stakeholders emphasized that engaging the press is vital for educating the public on how to navigate the upcoming digital portals securely and effectively.
As planning progresses, the Directorate intends to roll out comprehensive public awareness campaigns and technical training programs across various districts. These future initiatives will ensure that both urban and remote populations are adequately prepared to utilize the self-enumeration tools when the official count commences.
