Discussion
Considering different schedules in the Constitution of India, which of the following pairs are correctly matched?
1. Fifth Schedule : Provisions relating to the administration and control of Scheduled Areas and Scheduled Tribes
2. Sixth Schedule : Allocation of seats in the Rajya Sabha to the States and Union Territories
3. Ninth Schedule : Acts and Regulations of the state legislatures dealing with land reforms and abolition of the Zamindari system
4. Tenth Schedule : Provisions relating to the administration of tribal areas in the States of Assam, Meghalaya, Tripura and Mizoram
Answer: C
Pairs 1 and 3 are correct, so the answer is 1 and 3 only.
The Fifth Schedule deals with the administration and control of Scheduled Areas and Scheduled Tribes. The Ninth Schedule holds Acts, mainly land reform and zamindari abolition laws, protected from challenge on the ground of fundamental rights.
Pair 2 is wrong: allocation of Rajya Sabha seats is in the Fourth Schedule; the Sixth Schedule deals with tribal areas in Assam, Meghalaya, Tripura and Mizoram. Pair 4 is wrong for the same reason: that description belongs to the Sixth Schedule, while the Tenth Schedule contains the anti-defection law.
