Match the non-constitutional statutory bodies listed in List-I with their respective statutory tenure and re-appointment provisions under Indian law listed in List-II, and select the correct matching pair configuration.

  • Central Vigilance Commission (CVC)Holds office for a term of 4 years or until attaining 65 years of age, and is ineligible for further employment under the Union or State Government.
  • National Human Rights Commission (NHRC)Holds office for a term of 3 years or until attaining 70 years of age, and is eligible for re-appointment.
  • National Green Tribunal (NGT)Holds office for a term of 5 years from the date of entering office, and is strictly not eligible for re-appointment.
  • Central Information Commission (CIC)Holds office for such term as prescribed by the Central Government (or until 65 years of age), and is not eligible for re-appointment to the same position.

Cevap

The correct alignment pairs the Central Vigilance Commission with a 4-year term or 65-year age cap and bar on further employment; the National Human Rights Commission with a 3-year term or 70-year age cap and re-appointment eligibility; the National Green Tribunal with a 5-year fixed term and bar on re-appointment; and the Central Information Commission with tenure as prescribed by Central Government rules.
Each non-constitutional statutory body operates under specific provisions set by its governing Act of Parliament. The Central Vigilance Commission Act, 2003 establishes a 4-year tenure with an age cap of 65 and a complete ban on subsequent state or central government employment. The Protection of Human Rights (Amendment) Act, 2019 lowered the NHRC tenure to 3 years with an upper age limit of 70 while permitting re-appointment. The National Green Tribunal Act, 2010 sets a 5-year tenure with a complete prohibition on re-appointment. The RTI (Amendment) Act, 2019 replaced the original fixed 5-year term of the CIC with terms prescribed by Central Government rules.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the statutory provisions governing the Central Vigilance Commission (CVC).
Under the CVC Act, 2003, the Vigilance Commissioner serves a unique 4-year term or until age 65 and cannot accept further employment under the Central or State Government.
Identify the distinct 4-year tenure rule applicable specifically to CVC.
2
Analyze the statutory provisions of the Protection of Human Rights Act for the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC).
The 2019 Amendment reduced the tenure from 5 years to 3 years (or 70 years of age) and permitted re-appointment.
Distinguish NHRC's reduced 3-year tenure and 70-year age cap from other bodies.
3
Examine the tenure rule under the National Green Tribunal (NGT) Act, 2010.
Section 7 mandates a 5-year fixed term with a strict prohibition on re-appointment.
Identify NGT's unique 5-year non-renewable tenure structure.
4
Evaluate the statutory framework for the Central Information Commission (CIC).
The RTI (Amendment) Act, 2019 empowered the Central Government to notify tenure terms by rules (currently 3 years) rather than keeping a fixed statutory 5-year term.
Confirm the flexible executive-prescribed tenure mechanism introduced by the 2019 amendment.
