The National Commission for Women is a :

  • A.Non-statutory body
  • B.Statutory body
  • C.Semi-statutory body
  • D.Quasi-statutory body

Answer: B

The National Commission for Women is a statutory body.

It was constituted in January 1992 under the National Commission for Women Act, 1990, an Act of Parliament. Its powers and functions, such as reviewing laws affecting women and inquiring into complaints, come from that Act.

A non-statutory body is set up by an executive order without a law behind it. 'Semi-statutory' and 'quasi-statutory' are not the categories used for the NCW, which has full statutory status.
