The Census 2027 enumeration will begin on September 1 in the snow‑bound districts of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh, according to the Census Office.
The move aims to ensure that residents in remote, high‑altitude areas are counted before the winter season deepens.
Enumerators will be deployed in villages such as Kargil, Leh, and Pahalgam, where heavy snowfall can delay data collection.
