  • State Finance CommissionConstitutional body constituted every five years to review the financial position of local self-government institutions (Articles 243-I and 243-Y)

Cevap

Advocate General for the State matches with holding office during the pleasure of the Governor and having legislative speaking rights; State Election Commissioner matches with removal protection equivalent to a High Court Judge; Lokayukta matches with the statutory anti-corruption Ombudsman role; and State Finance Commission matches with reviewing local self-government financial position under Articles 243-I and 243-Y.
Each state-level constitutional and statutory authority possesses distinct appointment, tenure, and operational provisions: the Advocate General serves at the Governor's pleasure with legislative speaking rights under Articles 165 and 177; the State Election Commissioner enjoys constitutional protection against arbitrary removal under Article 243K; the Lokayukta is a state statutory ombudsman investigating administrative corruption; and the State Finance Commission is mandated every five years under Articles 243-I and 243-Y.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the constitutional position and rights of the Advocate General for the State.
The Advocate General is appointed under Article 165 and holds office during the Governor's pleasure. Article 177 grants them the right to speak and participate in State Legislative proceedings without a vote.
Constitutional provisions grant legislative entry and speaking privileges to the highest law officer of the state while withholding voting rights reserved for legislators.
2
Examine the security of tenure for the State Election Commissioner.
Article 243K explicitly accords security of tenure to the State Election Commissioner by stipulating that removal can occur only in like manner and on like grounds as a High Court Judge.
This constitutional safeguard ensures independent superintendence, direction, and control of local body elections free from executive pressure.
3
Determine the statutory origin and scope of the Lokayukta.
The Lokayukta is a statutory institution created by state-level legislation rather than a direct constitutional body, functioning as an ombudsman for investigating corruption among state public servants.
State legislatures enact individual Lokayukta Acts to establish institutional mechanisms against administrative corruption.
4
Evaluate the functional mandate and articles governing the State Finance Commission.
Articles 243-I and 243-Y mandate the quinquennial constitution of the State Finance Commission by the Governor to recommend devolution of finances to urban and rural local bodies.
The 73rd and 74th Constitutional Amendment Acts institutionalized fiscal decentralization to empower Panchayats and Municipalities.
