The 15th Indian Census was conducted in two phases, house listing and population enumeration. House listing phase began on 1 April 2010 and involved collection of information about all buildings. Information for National Population Register was also collected in the first phase, which will be used to issue a 12-digit unique identification number to all registered Indians by Unique Identification Authority of India. The second population enumeration phase was conducted between 9 to 28 February 2011. Census has been conducted in India since 1872 and 2011 marks the first time biometric information was collected. According to the provisional reports released on 31 March 2011, the Indian population increased to 1.21 billion with a decadal growth of 17.64%. Adult literacy rate increased to 74.04% with a decadal growth of 9.21%. The motto of census 2011 was 'Our Census, Our future'.
Spread across 29 states and 7 union territories, the census covered 640 districts, 5,767 tehsils, 7,933 towns and more than 600,000 villages. A total of 2.7 million officials visited households in 7,933 towns and 600,000 villages, classifying the population according to gender, religion, education and occupation. The cost of the exercise was approximately ₹2200 crore (US$320 million) – this comes to less than $0.50 per person, well below the estimated world average of $4.60 per person. Conducted every 10 years, this census faced big challenges considering India's vast area and diversity of cultures and opposition from the manpower involved.

It is the seventh-largest country by area, the second-most populous country with over 1.2 billion people, and the most populous democracy in the world. Bounded by the Indian Ocean on the south, the Arabian Sea on the south-west, and the Bay of Bengal on the south-east, it shares land borders with Pakistan to the west;China, Nepal, and Bhutan to the north-east; and Myanmar (Burma) and Bangladesh to the east.

Home to the ancient Indus Valley Civilisation and a region of historic trade routes and vast empires, the Indian subcontinent was identified with its commercial and cultural wealth for much of its long history. Four religions—Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism—originated here, whereas Zoroastrianism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam arrived in the 1st millennium CE and also shaped the region's diverse culture. Gradually annexed by and brought under the administration of the British East India Company from the early 18th century and administered directly by the United Kingdom after the Indian Rebellion of 1857, India became an independent nation in 1947 after a struggle for independence that was marked by non-violent resistance led by Mahatma Gandhi.

The release of India's religious census, the population of India broken down by religion, has led to much sound and fury. The Big Picture from 2001 to 2011 - the proportion of Hindu population of India has fallen very slightly. The proportion is now just below 80%. In the same time, the Muslim growth rate has risen by 0.8 per cent. Other interesting figures that have emerged are that the percentage of population of Christians has virtually remained the same, while the proportion of Sikhs and Buddhists have fallen slightly. Why do we see so many alarmist headlines? What really are the big ideas that have emerged from the census?

New Delhi: The BJP Member of Parliament from Gorakhpur Yogi Adityanath on Wednesday once again triggered controversy by stating that the government should stop Muslim population from rising. The rise in Muslim population in the past decade “is an alarming and dangerous situation for the country,” claimed BJP’s firebrand leader Yogi Adityanath on Wednesday, a day after the Registrar General of India released the Census 2011 data on Population by Religious Communities. To control the increasing population of the community, the Gorakhpur MP demand for a “Uniform Civil Code” and formation of laws.
