Who has the power to extend the functions of Public Service Commission ?
Answer: B
The power belongs to Parliament.
Under Article 321, an Act made by Parliament (or, for a State Public Service Commission, by the State Legislature) may provide for the exercise of additional functions by the Commission in respect of the services of the Union or the State, and of local authorities and public institutions.
The President can make regulations on matters on which the Commission need not be consulted (Article 320), but he cannot add to its functions. The Prime Minister and the Commission's own Chairman have no such power.
