The authorities have warned that strict measures will be taken against those who continue to avoid their responsibilities. The census operation is being managed by the Ministry of Home Affairs, and adherence to official directives is mandatory. Officials from the Nagpur Municipal Corporation confirmed that several officers and employees designated as enumerators and supervisors in the Dharampeth zone have not reported for duty. The absentees include a significant number of teachers and staff from schools, colleges, semi-government institutions, private institutions, as well as employees from state and central government offices. Taking the situation seriously, the administration has initiated the process of filing cases against the absent enumerators and supervisors. Department heads of the respective institutions have been instructed to ensure immediate compliance with the orders. Assistant municipal commissioner Rajkumar Meshram of the Dharampeth zone urged all staff to participate in the census work promptly to ensure the smooth execution of the exercise.
