To complete the remaining census work and ensure 100% coverage, the Pakistan Bureau of Statistics Monday extended the date of the ongoing digital census for the second time till April 15, a statement said.

The date to complete work of the country’s seventh population census has been extended by the chief census commissioner in metropolitan cities including Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Lahore, Quetta, Gilgit, and Karachi or as the Sindh government deemed it appropriate.

It added that the census date has also been extended for 13 cities of Balochistan. This is the second time that the date for the population count has been extended.

“In order to complete the leftover census work and ensure the completed coverage, details of the cities along with the additional time required to complete remaining work was solicited from the provincial governments for extending the census operation on a customised basis only for those cities where census work is yet to be completed,” the statement read.

In case enumerators have not yet made a visit, the federal agency — conducting the task of completing Pakistan’s first-ever digital census — has requested citizens to inform them via the toll-free number 0800-57574, which will be functional 24/7.
