Kerala 1959 An Economic Review

Abstract

From Introduction: The Estimates Committee in its report for the year 1958-59 recommends that at the time of the presentation of the Budget for the ensuring year an economic review of the year might be circulated among the Members of the Legislative Assembly along with other Budget papers. This first report is prepared in the Bureau of Economic Studies. Statistics pertaining to the economic conditions of the State during the year usually become available only with the lag of a number of years. It is therefore extremely difficult to make an objective report of the economic conditions of the State during the year at the end of that year itself.
