How does one judge the performance of the government amid the clamour of paid reports, favoured opinions, generation bias, media management, and political fights? An unbiased approach, free from even personal opinions, is important. I choose data analysis precisely for this reason – data does not lie, and data is impartial. I have examined the government’s spending, both centre and state, on various sectors for the last five years in order to gauge its performance.
Data revealed that along with states, the central government has successfully attempted to bring about a structural change in the economy by focusing on full-fledged development.
