The Socio Economic and Caste Census 2011 (SECC) was conducted for the 2011 Census of India.[1][2][3][4] The Manmohan Singh government approved the Socio Economic and Caste Census 2011 to be carried out after discussion in both houses of Parliament in 2010.[5] SECC-2011 was not done under the 1948 Census of India Act and the Registrar General and Census Commissioner of India was not entrusted to do the same.[6] The SECC 2011 was conducted in all states and union territories of India and the first findings were revealed on 3 July 2015 by Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley.[7][8][9] SECC 2011 is also the first paperless census in India conducted on hand-held electronic devices by the government in 640 districts.[10][11][12] The rural development ministry has taken a decision to use the SECC data in all its programmes such as MGNREGA, National Food Security Act, and the Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Grameen Kaushalya Yojana.[13] SECC 2011 was the first caste-based census since 1931 Census of India,[14][15] and it was launched on 29 June 2011 from the Sankhola village of Hazemara block in West Tripura district.[16][17]
