Which of the following committees recommended the Panchayats (Extension to the Scheduled Areas) Act ?

  • A.B.D. Sharma Committee
  • B.Second Administrative Reforms Commission
  • C.M.M. Punchhi Commission
  • D.Dileep Singh Bhuria Committee

Answer: D

The Panchayats (Extension to the Scheduled Areas) Act was recommended by the Dileep Singh Bhuria Committee, so the answer is D.

The committee, appointed in 1994, proposed the extension of the Panchayati Raj provisions to the Fifth Schedule areas, with special powers for the gram sabha, and Parliament passed the PESA Act in 1996 on that basis.

The B. D. Sharma (A) report concerned tribal areas more generally, the Second Administrative Reforms Commission (B) came a decade later, and the Punchhi Commission (C) examined centre-state relations.
