It is prepared under the guidance of the Chief Economic Adviser • Last year, for the first time, the government presented a mid-term economic survey in the month of August. • Economic Survey reviews the developments in the Indian economy over the previous 12 months, summarizes the performance on major development programs, and highlights the policy initiatives of the government and the prospects of the economy in the short to medium term. • The 2017-18 document tabled by Finance Minister Arun Jaitley in Parliament. • The theme for the Economic Survey 2017-18 was pink, apparently to confront Indian society’s notorious preference for sons, and the gender injustice faced by women.
