Answer: Institute for Social Economic Change (ISEC)
Notes: Bengaluru’s first digital population clock was inaugurated at Institute for Social Economic Change (ISEC). It provides real-time population estimates for Karnataka and India. The project is a joint effort of ISEC and the Union Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW). The clock updates Karnataka’s population every 1 minute 10 seconds and India’s every 2 seconds. It aims to raise awareness about population dynamics and support research. Similar clocks will be installed at 18 Population Research Centres in India. Equipped with satellite connection, advanced software, and tools, it will enhance demographic studies and policy analysis.
