Greetings on National Statistics Day
National Statistics Day is celebrated on June 29, on the birth anniversary of late Prof. Prasanta Chandra Mahalanobis. He was an Indian scientist and statistician from West Bengal.
He is best remembered for the Mahalanobis distance, a statistical measure, and for being one of the members of the first Planning Commission of Free India.
The Government has been celebrating Statistics Day to popularise the use of statistics in our daily lives. Many people do not know the importance of statistics, however, it is actually of utmost importance. It shapes and frames policies.
The objective of this day is to create public awareness, specially in the younger generation for drawing inspiration from Professor (late) Mahalanobis about the role and importance of statistics in socio-economic planning and policy formulation.
