BY JUNE 1, A NEAR FOUR WEEK-LONG Comprehensive Survey of Scheduled Castes 2025 is set to come to a close in Karnataka. Some 59,000-odd enumerators have fanned out across the state to carry out the door-to-door survey using a digital app. “We wanted it to be on a digital platform from start to end,” says Yatish R., who heads the Directorate of Electronic Delivery of Citizen Services, the e-governance department wing which developed the app.
