Overview

• Official data show just 2,765 households and 10,642 people were covered on day one after app failures, OTP errors and kit delays.
• On day two, teachers reported sluggish uploads and repeated OTP timeouts, with some Shivamogga enumerations taking up to an hour per family.
• Mysuru showed improvement, moving from 15 households on day one to 260 by Tuesday afternoon, with kits distributed to nearly 90% of enumerators.
• Some teachers objected to short‑notice deployment or delayed kits and a few declined survey duties, adding to coverage gaps in several districts.
• The exercise uses a 60‑question digital form with geo‑tagging and Unique Household IDs, faces BJP criticism over preparedness and intent, and is before the Karnataka High Court today.
