When I try to start the inferior haskell buffer(By using the shortcut 
C-c C-z), I get the above error.

In my init file I only have the code for importing "haskell-mode.el" 
i.e., (require 'haskell-mode)
And in the code in above file only the key binding for switch-to-haskell 
is there.
The inf-haskell file is nowhere loaded.

I guess, the problem might be that you are using some compiled version 
of the mode, where everything gets loaded.

But I am using the ".el" files directly (I know it is inefficient, but I 
don't know how to compile them) and as the inf-haskell file is not 
loaded anywhere it gives the error.

I guess, you should put code to compile the ".el" files in the package 
when "haskell-mode.el" is loaded for the first time and also make sure 
that all the files get linked properly.

Thanks.
