District wise population growth rate provided by the Directorate of Census Operations is in the kit. The EB wise difference of population under SECC and NPR is also available in the NIC website. The growth of population may be analysed EB wise and any unusual growth is to be enquired.

vi. Moved Inside the EB (MI) but not Enumerated It is observed in some EBs, the persons moved inside EB(MI) but not enumerated is very high. If the number of persons moved inside EB but not enumerated is less than or equal to the number of new members added, then it could be acceptable.
