India’s 16th Census has arrived with a futuristic digital twist. West Bengal residents can now self-enumerate online until August 15. It takes under 10 minutes, requires zero documents, and grants you a unique 11-digit ID to streamline the process. While voluntary, this tech-first approach slashes paperwork. Remember: while self-reporting is optional, the final in-person census remains legally mandatory for everyone!
