Discrepancies in GDP Data
I am writing in connection with your editorial titled “Lies, Damn Lies and Statistics” (EPW, 11 June 2016), in which issues relating to “discrepancies” in gross domestic product (GDP) data, growth rates in manufacturing sector and comparison of Provisional Estimates (PE) of current year with PE of the previous year were raised.
There are errors, in fact and logic, which are not expected from a journal with the reputation of the EPW.
