National Census 2027: Houselisting deadline extended till May 22 in Karnataka
The houselisting deadline for the National Census 2027 in Karnataka has been extended to May 22. This extension allows officials to verify locked houses and revisit households where residents were unavailable during the initial survey. The exercise has faced delays due to enumerators managing other duties and the challenge of accessing certain homes in the Greater Bengaluru Authority limits.
- ▪The houselisting exercise was originally set to end on May 15 but has been extended by a week.
- ▪Officials reported that around 1.25 lakh houses have been found locked during the survey.
- ▪The exercise aims to gather data on housing conditions and basic amenities as part of the census preparation.

Opening excerpt (first ~120 words) tap to expand
The houselisting exercise under Phase I of the National Census 2027, which was originally scheduled to conclude on May 15, has been extended across the State by a week and will now continue till May 22.The exercise was also carried out in Delhi, Odisha, and several other States during the same period, from April 16 to May 15. However, enumeration has been completed in those States. Officials told The Hindu that the exercise was extended to allow more time to verify the status of locked houses and revisit households where residents were unavailable during the initial survey. They said the process also took longer because enumerators were simultaneously handling other official duties. This also delayed the entry and updating of the collected data on the census portal.
