Citizens who were missed during the physical enumeration can now complete their submission digitally. The Commission has provided an online self-declaration option accessible at https://kscbcselfdeclaration.karnataka.gov.in.
The Social and Educational Survey, which began on September 22, has been extended repeatedly past its initial October 7 deadline to improve coverage. The large door-to-door survey concluded on October 31 with an 89.48 per cent participation rate. The officials cited two main hurdles during the survey: approximately 4.22 lakh households refused to participate, and 34.49 lakh homes were inaccessible (locked or vacant) during the survey period, the PTI report added.
