भारताच्या निवडणूक आयोगासंदर्भात दिलेल्या विधानांपैकी कोणते विधान चुकीचे आहे ?

The correct answer is Option A (The body is comprised of a Chief Election Commissioner and three Election Commissioners.).

Key Points:
• Election Commission of India (Article 324):
• Statement 1 is FALSE: The Election Commission consists of the Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) and two other Election Commissioners (Total 3 members), NOT three Election Commissioners.
• Statement 2 is TRUE: As per Article 324(2), the President appoints the Chief Election Commissioner and other Election Commissioners.
• Statement 3 is TRUE: Under the Election Commission (Conditions of Service of Election Commissioners and Transaction of Business) Act, 1991, they hold office for a term of 6 years or until the age of 65 years, whichever is earlier.
• Evolution: Initially a single-member body from 1950 to Oct 1989; made multi-member briefly, and permanently became a 3-member body on October 1, 1993.
• Key Takeaway: The Election Commission consists of 1 CEC and 2 ECs (total 3 members), appointed by the President for 6 years or up to age 65.
