  • Justice Fazal Ali (Chairman)
  • Hridaynath Kunzru
  • K. M. Panikkar

The commission submitted its report in 1955, which led to the enactment of the States Reorganisation Act, 1956. Regarding the other options:

  • S. K. Dar headed the Linguistic Provinces Commission in 1948.
  • Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel was a member of the JVP Committee (Jawaharlal Nehru, Vallabhbhai Patel, and Pattabhi Sitaramayya) formed in 1948 to study the Dar Commission's recommendations.

Therefore, Option C is the only one that correctly identifies the three members of the 1953 Commission.
