Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu launched the State government’s prestigious ‘Smart Pulse’ Socio-economic survey at his residence in Undavalli, Guntur district on Friday.
As part of the survey, as many as 30,000 enumerators will gather the data of families across the State. The enumerators will use tablets provided by the state government. Data collected from each household would be uploaded online, the sources said.
Launching the survey, the Chief Minister said the historical survey was aimed at learning the personal details of the people. This is a novel programme. It would culminate in the empowerment of the people. The survey would back up all social welfare programmes, Naidu said.
The social and economic inequities could be tabulated. After the survey, plans would be made to bring up the economically weaker sections, the Chief Minister added.
