The Sachar Committee Report pertains to

The Sachar Committee, officially known as the Prime Minister's High Level Committee on the Social, Economic and Educational Status of the Muslim Community of India, was constituted in March 2005 [t1][t7]. Chaired by Justice Rajindar Sachar, the committee was mandated to prepare a comprehensive report on the socio-economic and educational conditions of Indian Muslims [t1][t4]. The report, submitted in November 2006, highlighted significant disparities, revealing that the Muslim community lagged behind other religious groups in most development indicators, including education, employment, and access to credit [t7][t8]. It noted that in some human resource indicators, Muslims were placed lower than Scheduled Castes [t7]. The committee's recommendations focused on inclusive development, mainstreaming the community, and addressing their relative deprivation through targeted government interventions and affirmative action [t3][t8]. Consequently, the report is a landmark document specifically pertaining to the status of Indian Muslims [t4][t10].
