Without digital and timely conduction of population census, the resources\u2019 distribution amongst various areas of the country will not be ensured,\u201d he further mentioned. In order to make the exercise successful, the media and public cooperation will be of great importance, he stressed. Replying to a question, he explained the process that the census process is divided into two parts, in the first part the citizens have been given the option to self-enumerate through the specially designed https:\/\/self.pbs.gov.pk portal. DNA<br \/>\nWhile in the second phase, the house-to-house census will be conducted by using tablets and mobiles, in which organizers will make the process more credible, accurate and transparent, he added.<br \/>\nHe also appealed to the public to fully cooperate with the census teams to make the census a success. Self-enumeration is a new concept that gives every resident of the country the option to register in the census, he replied in a question.<br \/>\nTo another question, he said any household member can register all members of the family who live and eat together as a household, adding, census teams are visiting houses door to door for the verification of the process.
