The Constitution (Ninety-second Amendment) Act, 2003 deals with the inclusion of Bodo, Dogri, Maithili, and Santhali languages in the Eighth Schedule of the Indian Constitution.

Option 1, the creation of a separate National Commission for Scheduled Tribes, is unrelated to this amendment.

Option 2, cybercrime, is also unrelated to this amendment. Cybercrime refers to criminal activities conducted through digital means and is not addressed in this particular amendment.

Option 4, making the right to free and compulsory education a Fundamental Right, is also unrelated to this amendment. The right to free and compulsory education was addressed in the Constitution (Eighty-sixth Amendment) Act, 2002, which inserted Article 21A in the Indian Constitution.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 3, the inclusion of Bodo, Dogri, Maithili, and Santhali languages in the Eighth Schedule. This amendment was made to recognize the importance of these languages and provide them official status in the Indian Constitution.
