&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The Indian statistical system is failing to fulfil the needs of 21st century policymaking&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The Indian state has often been a source of bewilderment to observers and analysts, and a source of frustration for its citizens who marvel at the state&amp;rsquo;s ability to perform complex tasks&amp;mdash;such as running a successful space mission&amp;mdash;while failing to perform many basic tasks such as ensuring the survival of newborns. Perhaps no other organ of the state embodies this paradox as starkly today as the Indian statistical system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In many ways, the Indian state is perhaps much more data-rich than it has ever been before, with detailed biometric data about an overwhelming majority of its citizens available through the Aadhaar system. It will soon have detailed records of company-level commercial transactions through the Goods and Services Tax Network (GSTN). Yet, in many other ways, its statistical systems are failing to fulfil the needs of 21st century policymaking, with even basic data on industrial output, and gross domestic product, or GDP, being routinely questioned by policymakers and analysts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The state&amp;rsquo;s ability to amass and collate administrative data seems to grow by the day. Most big schemes of the government, such as the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS) and the Jan Dhan Yojana today collect and disseminate detailed disaggregated data. Yet, the once-famed statistical bodies, the Central Statistical Organization (CSO) and the National Sample Survey Office (NSSO), seem to struggle to produce timely and credible data on crucial aspects of the Indian economy and society, which imperil policymaking, and has made life difficult for investors.&lt;br /&gt;

Yet, the once-famed statistical bodies, the Central Statistical Organization (CSO) and the National Sample Survey Office (NSSO), seem to struggle to produce timely and credible data on crucial aspects of the Indian economy and society, which imperil policymaking, and has made life difficult for investors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.livemint.com/Opinion/aMKJ70TknavlOziQEg0SKL/Why-India-needs-another-statistical-revolution.html&quot; title=&quot;http://www.livemint.com/Opinion/aMKJ70TknavlOziQEg0SKL/Why-India-needs-another-statistical-revolution.html&quot;&gt;click here&lt;/a&gt; to read more. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&#039;
