Which among the following is not correct about UPSC ?

  • A.The Chairman and members of the Commission hold office for a term of 5 years.
  • B.The President can remove the Chairman or any other member.
  • C.It is a Central recruiting agency in India.
  • D.It is an Independent Constitutional body.

Answer: A

The statement that is not correct is The Chairman and members of the Commission hold office for a term of 5 years.

Under Article 316, the Chairman and members of the UPSC hold office for six years or until they reach 65, whichever comes first.

The other statements are correct. Under Article 317 the President can remove the Chairman or a member on the grounds the Constitution lays down. The UPSC is the central recruiting agency for the all-India and central services, and it is an independent constitutional body set up under Article 315.
