Discussion
Statement 1 : The chairperson and members of a State Human Rights Commission are appointed by the Chief Minister.
Statement 2 : The chairperson and members of a State Human Rights Commission can be removed by the governor.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
Answer: C
Both Statement 1 and Statement 2 are false.
Under the Protection of Human Rights Act, 1993, the chairperson and members of a State Human Rights Commission are appointed by the Governor, on the recommendation of a committee headed by the Chief Minister. The Chief Minister recommends; he does not appoint. So Statement 1 is false.
Although the Governor appoints them, they can be removed only by the President, on the grounds and by the procedure in the Act. So Statement 2 is false as well, which rules out every option that calls either statement true.
