The JFD has asked authorities to rectify the notification postponing the Manipur census, calling it incomplete and poorly drafted.
The organization identified as JFD has formally sought a rectification of the recent notification that delays the census in Manipur. In its submission, JFD described the document as "half cooked and half amended," suggesting that it lacks clarity and proper legal framing.
The deferment notification, issued by the state administration, postpones the scheduled enumeration of households and demographic data in Manipur. JFD argues that the language of the notice is ambiguous and that the procedural steps outlined are incomplete.
By requesting a corrected notice, JFD aims to ensure that the census process can resume on a clear and legally sound basis, avoiding further administrative confusion. The appeal highlights the importance of accurate documentation for large‑scale demographic exercises.
State officials have not yet responded publicly to JFD's demand, and the timeline for any amendment remains uncertain.
