Result
Your answer: —  ·  Correct: B

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 2. This matching accurately reflects the appointments made to these significant constitutional and administrative bodies in India.

  • I-A: The Eleventh Finance Commission (1998) was chaired by A.M. Khusro. It was responsible for recommending the distribution of tax proceeds between the Union and States for the period 2000-2005.
  • II-C: The Expenditure Reforms Commission, set up in 2000 to suggest measures for reducing public expenditure and improving fiscal discipline, was headed by K.P. Geethakrishnan.
  • III-D: The Tenth Finance Commission (1992-1995) was chaired by K.C. Pant. It introduced the concept of an "Alternative Scheme of Devolution."
  • IV-E: The Commission on Centre-State Relations (1983), famously known as the Sarkaria Commission, was chaired by Justice R.S. Sarkaria.

Options 1, 3, and 4 are incorrect because they misattribute the leadership of these commissions, such as wrongly associating Bimal Jalan or K.C. Pant with the wrong cycles or bodies.
