Bengaluru, June 14:
To ensure 100% completion of the ongoing survey in the West Zone limits, Zonal Commissioner Suralkar Vikas Kishor has instructed officials to affix stickers on all households.
Addressing a review meeting held today at the West Zone office in relation to the Comprehensive Scheduled Castes Survey, the Commissioner stated that affixing stickers on houses will help in easily identifying those households that are yet to be surveyed. He directed officials to immediately visit all houses and affix the stickers accordingly.
While affixing the stickers, officials must verify whether the survey has already been completed or not. In this regard, he emphasized the importance of collaborating with NSS (National Service Scheme), ACC, and registered organizations to support the survey work.
He also instructed that survey progress be monitored using data from BESCOM (Bangalore Electricity Supply Company) and the BWSSB, and that any pending surveys be completed promptly.
