Important Abbreviations in Economic Survey 2017 – 2018
Dear Aspirants,
Economic Survey is presented by the Department of Economic Affairs, Ministry of Finance every year before the Union Budget is released. The Economic Survey is the Annual Economic Development of the Country from the Finance Ministry’s view. This Economic Survey of India charts down the development programs which are vital to the country and the policy initiatives of the government and also the prospects of the economy in medium or small term.
The Economic Survey is presented in both the houses of the Parliament during the budget session. The Budget will be released in the forthcoming days and we will also update the Budget Highlights in our website soon.
Since many abbrevations are asked in the IBPS CLERK MAINS EXAM and also in the recently held south Indian bank Clerk Exam , we thought of providing the important Abbreviations which are mentioned in the Economic Survey 2017 – 2018.
