ADVERTISEMENTAnupam Neogi,CalcuttaJust concernsSir — The Economic Survey 2025-26 describes an economy that looks strong on paper yet an uneasiness persists underneath. Today’s Union budget will hopefully restore confidence at the level of household consumption and not rely only on macro indicators. Voters deserve honesty about these trade-offs before new promises appear in the Union budget. Minisha L. Awomi,Tuensang, NagalandSir — The projected growth rate of 6.8% to 7.2% for 2026-27 in the Economic Survey sounds respectable. Sayantan Basu,CalcuttaSir — The agricultural reforms suggested in the Economic Survey deserve serious public debate.
