MUMBAI (Reuters) - India's central bank on Monday formed a committee to ensure that public data it shares matches international standards and to suggest ways to improve the quality of data.

The 10-member panel will be chaired by Michael Patra, a deputy governor of the Reserve Bank of India, the central bank said in a statement.

The committee will submit its report by the end of November, it said.
