The National Advisory Council (NAC) has been set up as an interface with Civil Society in
regard to the implementation of the National Common Minimum Programme (NCMP) of the Government of India.
The NAC comprises distinguished professionals drawn from diverse fields of development activity who serve in their individual capacities. Through the NAC, the Government has access not only to their expertise and experience but also to a larger network of Research Organizations, NGOs and Social Action and Advocacy Groups. The Council
makes detailed recommendations to the Government of India in the areas of priority identified in the NCMP and to provide independent feedback on the impact of action initiated in various sectors. |
