Explanation
The National Action Plan on Climate Change contains eight national missions.
They cover solar energy, enhanced energy efficiency, sustainable habitat and water.
They also cover the Himalayan ecosystem, green India, sustainable agriculture and strategic knowledge for climate change.
A count of six or seven falls short of the actual number of missions.
A count of nine overstates the missions in the original plan.
