Bidar to conduct district-wide socio-educational and economic survey from September 22
Bidar: Deputy Commissioner Shilpa Sharma on Thursday announced that a comprehensive socio-educational and economic survey covering all castes and communities will be conducted across Bidar district from September 22 to October 7, reports The Hindu.
Chairing a meeting of the district-level coordination committee, Sharma said the survey will assess the social, educational, and economic status of households, including nomadic and semi-nomadic communities and tandas (hamlets).
“The survey must be carried out thoroughly and with complete accuracy,” she instructed officials.
She informed that master trainers trained at the State level would train district-level master trainers, who in turn will guide the field staff. Government teachers and officials from various departments will be deployed as enumerators and supervisors, with their details uploaded on a dedicated portal.
Around 90 master trainers, 450 supervisors, and 4,400 enumerators will participate in the exercise, expected to cover nearly 3.4 lakh households.
Sharma also said the Energy Department has already begun pasting stickers with UHID details on houses and geo-tagging them through meter readers.
Additionally, NSS volunteers will distribute survey forms door-to-door to raise awareness among residents.
The meeting was attended by the Additional Deputy Commissioner Shivanand Karale, Assistant Commissioner Mohammad Shakeel, Deputy Director of Backward Classes Welfare Sunita Shivanand, and other district officials.

Tarique Rahman sworn in as new Prime Minister of Bangladesh
Dhaka (PTI): Tarique Rahman was sworn in as the new Prime Minister of Bangladesh on Tuesday, days after leading his party to a forceful victory in the crucial general elections.
President Mohammed Shahabuddin administered the oath of office to 60-year-old Rahman at the South Plaza of the Jatiya Sangsad instead of Bangabhaban, in a departure from a long-standing tradition.
Earlier in the day, Rahman was elected as leader of the parliamentary party by the Bangladesh Nationalist Party lawmakers.
Rahman's BNP has bagged 209 out of 297 seats, while right-wing Jamaat-e-Islami secured 68 seats in the 13th Parliamentary elections. Deposed premier Sheikh Hasina's Awami League was barred from contesting polls.
