Indian economy is projected to grow over 9.2 percent. At present, inflation is hovering around 6.58 percent. Reserve bank comes up with a quarter percent hike in interest rate. Manufacturing output is expected to cross 11 percent, farming output by 4 percent, population to grow by 2.7 percent.
Those who publish these numbers do it regularly for a specific set of audience. An average Indian family can not absorb these numbers into their daily life.
But never in the recent past (or probably never) have I seen numbers on unemployment rate, national and state wide minimum wages, unfinished infrastructure projects, statistics on malnutrition and severe poverty. Lot more can be added. I feel the government deliberately fails to come up with numbers on those that hurt its image. Self appraisal in these areas is a must.
