The Council, established in 2007, had framed India?s National Action Plan on Climate Change in 2008 which had given rise to eight ?missions? to undertake actions that would put India on a low-carbon growth path and help adapting to the effects of climate change. These actions were considered essential to strengthen India?s case at the international climate change negotiations as well.
