7th ECONOMIC CENSUS 2019 THROUGH CSCs

How does the CSC start Economic Census Work?

• The VLE needs to enrol enumerators in sufficient numbers
• All enumerators & the VLE have to undergo the learning on the CSC LMS, take the assessments & get certified.
• On certification – a login ID is created for all enumerators & the VLE based on their unique mobile numbers
• The VLE needs to login to his dashboard – https://ecensus.in and allocate work to all enumerators under him (explained in more detail in Point 3 below)
• All enumerators need to download the “Economic Census 2019” application from the Google Play Store

How does VLE assign the work to Enumerator?

• The VLE, on logging into his dashboard - https://ecensus.in, sees the entire list of Enumerators under him
• The unit of allocation to enumerator is village in case of Rural & UFS Block in case of urban
• One enumerator is to be assigned only one village / UFS block at one time
• Once the enumerator completes the assigned area, the VLE needs to de-assign that area from him & assign him another village / UFS.
• One VLE can assign different villages to different enumerators (or different UFS blocks to different enumerators) at the same time. That is multiple enumerators can work in different villages / UFS blocks at the same time.
• In case an enumerator leaves before completion, the VLE needs to de-assign him from that area & assign that area to another enumerator. All records “submitted” by the previous enumerator will not be visible & the fresh enumerator will need to only carry out enumeration on the rest of the structures.
• For urban areas, there is a link on the economic census website from where the approximate number of households in the UFS blocks can be downloaded - https://ecocensus.in/ECIHouseHold/default.aspx
• The VLE while assigning needs to put in the number of households allocated -that number should be 120% of the number downloaded from the ecocensus.in.

Role of VLE after enumeration completed
by enumerator

• VLE is the first level supervisor
• He has to ensure the following:
• Area coverage has been 100% and no structure has been missed out
• Verify each record for accuracy on the defined fields 

The area allocation by
District Manager / District co-ordinator

• The area allocation to the VLE is to be done by the DC / DMs
• On logging in to the EC Dashboard - https://ecensus.in, the DC / DM will see the complete list of eligible VLEs in their district in the following fashion:
• Choose State
• Choose District
• Choose Sub District
• Choose GP
• The last drop down will have the entire list of VLEs available in the District
• In case of Rural areas, the unit of allocation is a Gram Panchayat (GP) – one or more GPs may be allocated to one VLE
• In Urban areas, the unit of allocation is a IV Unit – one or more IV units may be allocated to one VLE

What is consider as complete Economic Census?

• For any given Enumeration Area – UFS block in Urban & Village in Rural areas – every single structure has to be covered by the enumerator and verified by the Supervisor Level 1. Whether Supervision Level 2 is done by SL2 of State Government / FOD officials is not a concern of the VLE / Supervisor Level 1.
