The first meeting of the SCES is scheduled on January 6, 2020

The statistics ministry has constituted a 28 member Standing Committee on Statistics (SCES) chaired by former Chief Statistician Pronab Sen to improve quality of data amid criticism of the government over political interference.

“The first meeting of the SCES is scheduled on January 6, 2020. The agenda would be very broad based. We will come to know about that only in the first meeting next month,” Sen told PTI, confirming that an SECS has been constituted.

About the other members, Sen said, “The order to set up the committee has already been issued. But, I don’t have details about other members. It has to be seen that how many members come for the first meeting.

 Earlier in March this year, expressing concerns over “political interference” in influencing statistical data in India, as many as 108 economists and social scientists had called for restoration of “institutional independence” and integrity to the statistical organisations.

Their statement had come in the backdrop of controversy over revision of gross domestic product (GDP) numbers and withholding employment data by the National Sample Survey Organisation (NSSO).
