Government plans to set up a research unit to back up policy decisions with well researched data.
The government is planning to set up a research unit within its information dissemination wing – Press Information Bureau – through which it aims to strengthen daily content generated by official channels with well researched material on all significant policy decisions.
The idea behind a research unit is to ensure that all official information which PIB generates through press conferences, official handouts as well as through its social media handles, is backed with well researched and factual data, which can effectively help in dispelling any kind of lack of information or misinterpreted data, sources aware of the development said.
