Which of the following is not a constitutional body in India?
-
A.
Finance Commission
-
B.
Election Commission
-
C.
National Human Rights Commission
-
D.
Union Public Service Commission
Correct Answer:
C. National Human Rights Commission
Explanation:
The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) is a statutory body, not a constitutional one, as it was established by an act of Parliament—the Protection of Human Rights Act, 1993—rather than being defined within the text of the Constitution of India. In contrast, the Finance Commission (Article 280), Election Commission (Article 324), and Union Public Service Commission (Articles 315-323) are all constitutional bodies specifically mandated by the Constitution. Because the NHRC is a non-constitutional body created through legislation to protect and promote human rights, it is the correct answer to which of the listed options is not a constitutional body.
