Which of the following was the theme of the 20th Statistics Day observed by the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation on 29 June 2026?
Unlocking the Potential of Administrative Data
Statistics Day is observed in India every year on 29 June, the birth anniversary of Professor P. C. Mahalanobis, to recognise his contribution to statistics and economic planning.
The day was first observed in 2007, so the observance on 29 June 2026 was the 20th Statistics Day.
The Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI) chose 'Unlocking the Potential of Administrative Data' as the theme, focusing on using data that government departments already collect while running schemes and services for official statistics.
Data for Sustainable Development, Statistics for Nation Building and Digital India Through Data were not the theme announced for the 2026 observance.
Hence, the answer is Unlocking the Potential of Administrative Data.
