Dear Delhiwallas, We are meeting at the Centre for Budget and Governance Accountability (CBGA) office, Safdarjung Enclave, on *Wednesday, August 27, afternoon at 3:00 pm*, to read, understand and visualise budget expenditure data.
Here is the address: Centre for Budget and Governance Accountability B-7 Extn/110A (Ground Floor) Harsukh Marg Safdarjung Enclave, New Delhi - 110029 Tel: (11) 4920 0400, 4050 4846 As per our last conversations, we will start by looking at the 2013-14 expenditure datasets published by Ministry of Finance as part of the Union Budget 2014-15 <http://indiabudget.nic.in/vol1.asp>. However, these datasets are published in PDF format. So to avoid PDF-to-spreadsheet conversion efforts, we will instead work with 2012-13 data on budget expenditure <http://indiabudget.nic.in/budget2013-2014/vol1.asp>. Rohith from CBGA will lead the exploration of expenditure data. You are welcome to introduce and lead usage of tools for analysis and visualisation, or to come over and learn about budget data and tools. For example, I can help with using R to visualise data.
