With an intuitive and easy-to-navigate user interface, the portal not only bridges data gaps but also ensures that information remains accessible and well-organized for users across various sectors.
Furthermore, by offering detailed state-wise comparisons in a structured format, the portal empowers governments, think tanks, and financial institutions to make well-informed economic assessments based on comprehensive data insights.
During the launch event, Finance Minister Sitharaman emphasized that this initiative directly supports the government’s commitment to data-driven governance.
By fostering evidence-based policy formulation, the portal will not only support informed decision-making but also play a crucial role in accelerating India’s economic progress.
Furthermore, as the portal goes live, it marks a major milestone in India’s ongoing efforts to strengthen economic research and enhance fiscal transparency, reinforcing the country’s commitment to data-driven governance.
Looking ahead, by providing seamless access to both historical and real-time economic data, the portal is expected to significantly influence progressive policy decisions, ultimately shaping India’s future development in a more strategic and data-driven manner.
