Monday, 1st June 2026 (Nokinketer News): As part of the preparations for the Census of India 2027, the state of Nagaland has successfully completed the training of field trainers for all 17 districts. A total of 130 field trainers from across the state underwent a three-day residential training programme, conducted in four batches.

The trained field trainers will subsequently impart training to census supervisors and enumerators during June 2026 across Nagaland, covering 157 sub-districts, municipalities, and towns.

The training programmes, held between 20th May and 29th May 2026, witnessed 100 percent participation and were successfully organized under the leadership of the deputy commissioners of Dimapur, Mokokchung, Kohima, and Phek.

More than 6,000 government officials will be engaged in the conduct of Census 2027 in Nagaland. The census will be carried out in two phases.

The first phase, the House-Listing Operations, will provide citizens an opportunity to enumerate their households through an online self-enumeration facility from 16th to 30th June 2026. This will be followed by verification of the self-enumerated data and enumeration of households that could not complete self-enumeration by census enumerators and supervisors.

The second phase, scheduled for February 2027, will involve the population enumeration, during which population data will be collected across the state.

The Directorate of Census Operations, Nagaland, appeals to all citizens to actively participate and extend their full cooperation in ensuring the successful conduct of Census 2027.
