Hi, Sharing a recent article from Vivek Kaul, an economist who IMHO is amazing at bringing data together to make his case.
https://www.equitymaster.com/diary/detail.asp?date=03/26/2018&story=3&title=Corporates-Responsible-for-More-Than-80-of-Bad-Loans-of-Public-Sector-Banks One of his recurring sources for data: Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy, https://www.cmie.com . But what's striking is that he's quick at deriving crucial data points from several starred / unstarred questions raised in Parliament which complement the official figures and form crucial pieces of the puzzle. Also, there's granularity coming from delving deeper into the data and separating factors out rather than treating things like a black box. For example, the data on loans waivers to corporates vs loan waivers to farmers show a clear divergence and tell us about the need to not conflate the two. I don't think he gets much love from civil society, as his inferences and recommendations veer more towards classical Libertarianism than socialism, particularly regarding role of government in economy, etc. Yet I find their discussions bringing up the same problems and then being completely void of the angles he's brought up, because it's a totally different perspective. Anyways, Is anyone working on data gathering or visualizations for the bad loans issue? Do share if you know journalists doing more data-driven work. PS: Yes, I am replying on a very old thread. Wanted to continue the thread so people searching for these keywords can find them together.
