Explanation

The chronological order of the commissions is determined by their respective dates of establishment. The Sarkaria Commission was set up in June 1983 to examine Centre-State relations . The Eleventh Finance Commission was constituted in July 1998 under the chairmanship of A.M. Khusro to provide recommendations for the period 2000–2005. The Second Administrative Reforms Commission (ARC) was established on August 31, 2005, to suggest measures for overhauling the public administration system [2]. Finally, the Punchhi Commission on Centre-State relations was constituted on April 27, 2007, to review the changes in the Indian polity and economy since the Sarkaria Commission [1]. Therefore, the correct sequence is Sarkaria Commission (1983), Eleventh Finance Commission (1998), Second ARC (2005), and Punchhi Commission (2007), which corresponds to the sequence 4, 2, 1, 3.
