2011 Census

The 2011 Census was a nationwide survey conducted in India to collect detailed information about the population, including age, gender, literacy, employment, and housing conditions. It helps the government understand demographic trends, plan services like education, health, and infrastructure, and create policies for development. Conducted every 10 years, the 2011 Census covered over a billion people, providing a comprehensive snapshot of the country's social, economic, and cultural landscape at that time. The data is used by policymakers, researchers, and administrators to make informed decisions for the nation's progress.
