Secretary Statistics Department briefed the members that census will be conducted throughout the country at the same time while over 3 lakh Pak Army personnel will be required to ensure the transparency in census but Pak Army is busy in operation Zarb-e-Azab to eradicate terrorism.
The meeting agreed that census will not be conducted in phases because it will be the violation of international method so it is difficult to conduct census in country in this situation while provincial governments and Armed Forces will be consulted again on the issue of census.
