For the 2021 census, RGI first issued a notice of change of jurisdiction on December 22, 2017. It then asked states to update the changes by January 31, 2020, with a December 31, 2019 deadline for freezing boundaries. After that, the census house listing phase was to start from April 1, 2020 to September 30, 2020. This was during the period when RGI also had to count for the National Population Register (NPR), which is its prelude. Under which National Register of Citizens (NRC) will be prepared.

Census activities postponed amid Covid surge

While both the NPR and the NRC have caused considerable controversy in the context of the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), many states have openly opposed them. The last date of the census was postponed indefinitely in early 2020 due to the spread of Code-19. It is noteworthy that the deadline for updating jurisdictional changes has been extended several times.
