Census 2021 aims at near-accurate enumeration of Dalits & tribals

The instruction manual of the Census 2021 has a code directory that has enlisted and given a specific code to every SC and ST community in every state and UT. Unlike in 2011, when enumerators were asked to write down the community name of the SC or ST respondent, this time every sub caste and tribe has been pre-coded and the data collector will enter the code of the caste in the form, along with the name.
