This year’s Economic Survey looks different from its predecessors: It is pink. Chief Economic Advisor (CEA) Arvind Subramanian had an explanation for this choice, saying that the Survey was pink in order to express the government’s support for movements “in favour of women and women’s empowerment”. Some might carp that associating women with pink does not necessarily send out the correct message, but I have to admit that it did get the point across quite effectively. Previous Surveys have also had interesting covers; when Kaushik Basu was CEA, the artistically-inclined economist would design it himself.
