Closing Remarks
I take this opportunity to thank all of you for attending the Launch of
this year’s Economic Survey.
My sincere appreciation goes to all the data producers, both large and
small establishments, for their valuable input into this report.
I appeal to all data producers, who are still unwilling to provide data to
do so, as this information is crucial in the planning and development of
our country.
