to express my deepest and sincere thanks to DR. SHRUTI AURORA, Master of Business

Procurement: The committee recommended that all procurement made by the FCI
should be handed over to the states that gained experience in this matter and created
the necessary infrastructure for the same
Revision of the MSP Policy: The HLC recommends that pulses and oilseeds should
also be in the MSP category. At present MSP for 23 commodities were announced
with wheat and rice given priority, but the MSP was applicable in only selected states.
The present arrangement creates a disproportionate price structure that favours wheat
and rice.
HLC had recommended that the government should relook at the coverage (67% of
the population) under the NFSA as it’s on the ‘higher’ side.
In the Union Budget 2021 it was proposed that the food subsidy allocated to the Food
Corporation of India be revised to Rs 3,44,077 crore from the original subsidy amount of Rs
12
77,983 crore allocated in the 2020 Union Budget. The revised allocation was made due to the
government’s decision to pay the FCI’s rising loans and return to budgetary transfers to fund
the food subsidy bill.

DATA ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION
Data analysis is a process of inspecting, cleansing, transforming, and modeling data with the
goal of discovering useful information, informing conclusions, and supporting decision-
making. Data analysis has multiple facets and approaches, encompassing diverse techniques
under a variety of names, and is used in different business, science, and social science
domains. In today’s business world, data analysis plays a role in making decisions more
scientific and helping businesses operate more effectively. Although many groups,
organizations, and experts have different ways to approach data analysis, most of them can be
distilled into a one-size-fits-all definition. Data analysis is the process of cleaning, changing,
and processing raw data, and extracting actionable, relevant information that helps businesses
make informed decisions. The procedure helps reduce the risks inherent in decision making
by providing useful insights and statistics, often presented in charts, images, tables, and
graphs.
