Economic Survey: Lavender and lucre but a bit lacklustre
Corporatise for aggressive disinvestment
The Economic Survey 2019-20 suggested corporatisation of divestment by forming a new entity where the government's stake in listed central public sector enterprises (CPSEs) can be transferred and sold overtime, making a strong pitch for privatisation.

State interventions distort agricultural markets
“Government has emerged as the single largest procurer and hoarder of foodgrains,” the survey noted. Direct cash transfers would be far more effective than the current inefficient procurement system, it said. The waiver of farm debt by states is a bad idea, it said.

Licence raj still, focus on 'ease of doing business'
The Survey noted that increasing digitalization and seamlessly integrating multiple agencies onto a single digital platform can further reduce procedural inefficiencies in cross-border trade significantly and improve user experience substantially.

Economic Survey 2020: Optimistic prescriptions for difficult times
The survey has a distinct prescriptive flavour with many bold reforms to transition the economy to a more market-based economy. Thus, the survey has rightly highlighted that the vestiges of old Soviet model of economic growth need to be dismantled (notably in agriculture sector) to encourage rapid wealth creation on the back of entrepreneurship and growth.

Public sector bank employees are paid fixed salaries, which, according to the survey, does not encourage risk-taking and innovation.
