The Directorate of Census Operations of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh has wrapped up population enumeration across the snow-bound areas of both Union Territories. Through this achievement, Ladakh has emerged as the first region in the country to fully conclude its population counting phase.
With the snow-bound phase finalized, census officials are turning their attention to the remaining regions. Population enumeration for the non-snow-bound areas of Jammu and Kashmir is scheduled to proceed in February 2027.
