Which pair is correctly matched (commission and its subject)?
- 1. Kaka Kalelkar Commission: the first commission on the status of backward classes
- 2. Mandal Commission: B.P. Mandal
- 3. Ramanandan Commission: sub-categorisation of OBCs for reservation
- 4. G. Rohini Commission: creamy layer for OBC reservation
A1 and 3
B1 and 2 ✓ Correct
C1, 2, 3 and 4
D1, 3 and 4
Correct answer: (B) 1 and 2 — Pairs 1 and 2 are correctly matched, so the answer is 1 and 2.
Explanation
★Pairs 1 and 2 are correctly matched, so the answer is 1 and 2.
★The Kaka Kalelkar Commission was the first commission on the status of the backward classes.
★The Mandal Commission was headed by B.P. Mandal.
★Pair 3 is wrong, because the Ramanandan Commission dealt with the creamy layer for OBC reservation.
★Pair 4 is wrong, because the G. Rohini Commission deals with the sub-categorisation of OBCs.
★So the subjects of the Ramanandan and G. Rohini Commissions have been swapped.
★Hence only the Kaka Kalelkar and Mandal pairings are correct.
