The Bureau of Statistics & Economic Research was established in 1931
to systematically collect, compile and make it available to the
government as per its requirements. It was reorganized by the State
Govt., in 1938 and was kept under Directorate of Industries.
Thereafter it was merged with Price Control Department, which was
abolished in 1942 and two separate departments : - Economics &
Statistics, which was kept under Economic Adviser of the State Govt.,
and Food & Civil Supplies were created. In 1947 a post of Economic
Adviser and Director of Economics and Statistics was created with a
full-fledged department in the civil
secretariat. The Department of Economics and Statistics
was changed to Directorate of Economics and
Statistics in 1961. On November 5, 1971 The State Planning
Institute was established with a view to help the State
Planning Commission U.P. in formulation of the State
Plan on scientific lines. The Directorate of Economics and
Statistics was then made a part of it and since then it is
known as Economics and Statistics Division, S.P.I., U.P.
