The Justice Rajinder Sachar committee report states that Indian Muslims are "lagging behind" other religious communities and need to be provided more "equal opportunities". The report, however, remains silent on the issue of reservations for Muslims in offices and educational institutions. The committee says that the community is "only slightly better off than Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes and worse off than Other Backward Classes (OBCs), and in some cases, behind Dalits." The report suggests educational reforms in madrassas, and the allocation of 15\% of all government funds to Muslims. The report went on to say that the community was relatively poor, more illiterate, has lower access to education, lower representation in public and private sector jobs and lower availability of bank credit for self-employment.In urban areas, the community mostly lives in slums characterised by poor municipal infrastructure.
