Why?
The correct answer is 1-C, 2-B, 3-A, 4-D Explanation: Bordoloi Committee: Constituted in the backdrop of the Partition and Assam's turbulent political landscape, the primary objective of the Bordoloi Committee was to ascertain which tribal areas of Assam should be included within the Indian Union. The committee eventually made recommendations that laid the foundation for the Sixth Schedule of the Indian Constitution, which grants autonomy and special provisions to certain tribal areas. Sachar Committee: Commissioned by the Indian government in 2005 under the leadership of Justice Rajinder Sachar, this committee aimed to study the socio-economic condition of the Muslim community in India and offer recommendations to improve their status. Kelkar Committee: Headed by Vijay Kelkar, the Kelkar Committee was established to suggest comprehensive reforms for India's direct tax system, making it more contemporary and broad-based. Swaminathan Committee: Led by agricultural scientist M.S. Swaminathan, this committee focused on agricultural reforms and suggesting ways to enhance farmer welfare, particularly ensuring that farmers get a fair price for their produce.
