A commission setup to 'review the status of the unorganised/informal sector in India' submits its report. The report paints a bleak picture of the current situation - "77% of the population in 2004-05 had to make do, on an average, with no more than Rs 20 perday per capita" - and makes some recommendations. And the commission winds up after submitting the report. In April 2009. End of story.
Inclusive growth indeed. Link to EPW article on it: India's Social Question in a State of Denial (PDF). The actual report is here (PDF).
