Mysuru, Jan 20: Fears over CAA and proposed NRC have affected the ongoing 7th economic census. Following complaints of violence against enumerators and registration of FIR with people declining to give information, the state government has asked deputy commissioners and superintendents of police to hold awareness programmes about it.
The planning, programme monitoring & statistics department has requested the home department to provide cooperation at the police station level while additional chief secretary P Ravi Kumar, in his letter to all DCs, has asked them to create awareness. According to sources, enumerators in T Narasipura town of Mysuru district faced resistance as some residents misunderstood the reason for this census.
A senior officer of the directorate of economics and statistics said that additional chief secretary (ACS- Planning, Programme Monitoring & Statistics Department) Shalini Rajneesh has written to the home department and superintendents of police of all districts seeking their help to create awareness about the economic census.
According to sources in the directorate, in many places, people are refusing to share information under the misconception that it is related to CAA/ NRC. “Many are mistaken about the economic census. As a precaution, police help has been sought,” an officer said.
Authorities in Mysuru said the 7th economic census began on December 20 and will conclude on March 30.
“In Mysuru city alone, we need to cover a population of 11 lakh. In T Narasipura, we faced problems due to misconceptions about Census and CAA. We reported the incident which happened in an area where minorities reside in large numbers,” he explained. Mysuru SP CB Rishyanth said his office has not received any direction in this matter.

ALL MURDERERS ARE FROM SANGHPARIVAR. THERE IS NO DOUBT AT ALL...
Like Batwoman (Burkha woman) :-P
LOL.. why that mask. It remembers me some Burkha women standing in programme photos. They will do the same. They will pose for photos but nobody can see those women's face except two eyes (some people used cover nose bridge also :-D)
What is the main reason of covering the faces of guilty, which reveals police are favouring such murderers. Police not only arresting, they should disclose their identity, such as which group they belongs and the intension of their killing, on whose behest they killed etc.
Police should post murderers picture with open faces as to know if they can be recognised by people for some other cases. It will help Police also as these culprits might be doing some other unsocial activities like dealing in drugs / supplying prostitutes etc. as such people do this kind of unsocial activities for money.
this is sangaparwar policy to cover thier dirty face to public ....
