Teachers demand better facilities during census work

Government teachers involved in the Census-2027 work in Dakshina Kannada on Wednesday demanded better facilities, including transport, to do house listing in the undulating terrain of the district.

In a memorandum submitted to Puttur Assistant Commissioner, Stella Varghese, on Wednesday, a group of teachers, who are working as enumerators, said enumerators should be provided better protection, transport facility and kits containing cap and heat protection articles to carry out census work in remote and forest areas of Puttur, Belthangady and Sullia regions.
