GHMC Fully Prepared For Telangana Household Survey

GHMC Commissioner Somesh Kumar on Monday said that elaborate arrangements had been made to take up the Comprehensive Household Survey on August 19.

The Commissioner appealed all the citizens to be at home on August 19 for giving particulars to the Enumerators.

The main aim of the survey was to create a database of all the households, which will be used to help the poorer sections of the society with government schemes.

Also, if a citizen expected to need an LPG gas connection, a passport or other imported documents from the government in the future, his household's details would need to be in the database which was being created in this survey, Kumar said.

GHMC's officials will be distributing survey check slips and the list of documents to be produced, on August 19th. The officials will conduct pre-visits on August 17th and 18th for the survey.

Somesh Kumar said that information related to water and electricity connections, and property tax details, could be gathered from the receipts of the recent bills. Similarly, the citizens could give photocopies of their caste certificates, birth certificates, physically challenged certificates ect. as relevant to the Enumerator, to enable him to compile their full details in the survey.

A pamphlet on the survey and a checklist in all the three popular languages will be given to all households on 17th and 18th August.

Stickers are also being provided to the Enumerators to paste on the doors of the houses which are being surveyed.

If the Enumerators do not visit any house, then the citizens may contact on the 24x7 GHMC helpline, 21111111. (INN)
