Answer: C
At the state level the Election Commission is assisted by the Chief Electoral Officer.
Under the Representation of the People Act, 1950, each state has a Chief Electoral Officer, an officer of the state government nominated by the Election Commission of India in consultation with that government. The CEO supervises the preparation of electoral rolls and the conduct of elections in the state, working under the Commission's direction.
The Chief Election Commissioner heads the Commission itself at the national level. The State Information Commissioner works under the RTI Act, and the Chief Minister is the political executive, with no role in running elections.
