Socio-economic and Caste Census
The Socio-economic and Caste Census (SECC) is a comprehensive survey conducted by the Indian government to collect detailed data about households across the country. It captures information on income, employment, housing, and caste, aiming to understand the socio-economic conditions of different communities. This data helps in designing targeted welfare programs and policies to address poverty, improve social justice, and promote inclusive development. By providing a detailed snapshot of societal disparities, the SECC facilitates better resource allocation and policy planning to uplift marginalized groups and ensure equitable growth.
