RAMBAN: The District Administration Ramban, under the guidance of Deputy Commissioner Baseer-Ul-Haq Chaudhary, organized a comprehensive training for enumerators, supervisors, and other stakeholders for Mission YUVA Baseline Survey. The program, presided over by District Statistics and Evaluation Officer (DSEO) Ganesh Kumar and Assistant Director Employment Amit Kumar, focused on equipping the participants with the necessary skills and knowledge for conducting the baseline survey under Mission YUVA.

Three master trainers led the session, providing detailed guidance on utilizing the online mobile application for the survey. They explained the survey's methodology and objectives in two sessions, emphasizing its paperless nature. The baseline survey, scheduled to begin on January 1, 2025, and conclude on January 31, 2025, will involve approximately 600 enumerators, supervisors, and allied staff across Ramban district.

During the training, about 120 enumerators from Block Ramban and Municipal Committee Ramban received hands-on instruction. The session concluded with an interactive Q&A segment where participants' queries were addressed on the spot. The remaining enumerators will undergo training tomorrow, December 27, at four designated locations across the district. This initiative marks a significant step towards ensuring the successful implementation of Mission YUVA, which aims to deliver precise and actionable data for developmental planning.
