आंतर-राज्यीय परिषदेच्या कार्यक्षेत्रात खालीलपैकी कोणती बाब येत नाही ?

The correct answer is Option A (Adjudication of any dispute or complaint with respect to the use, distribution or control of water in any inter state river or valley).

Key Points:
• Jurisdiction of Inter-State Council (Article 263) vs Article 262:
• Article 262 (Inter-State River Water Disputes): Adjudication of disputes relating to waters of inter-state rivers or river valleys falls strictly under Article 262 and the Inter-State River Water Disputes Act, 1956. Parliament is empowered to set up separate ad-hoc tribunals.
• Article 263 (Inter-State Council Functions): Defines three duties:
• 1. Inquiring into and advising upon disputes which may arise between states (Option 2).
• 2. Investigating and discussing subjects of common interest between Union and States or among States (Option 3).
• 3. Making recommendations upon any such subject for better co-ordination of policy and action (Option 4).
• Adjudication of water disputes is completely outside the mandate of Article 263.
• Key Takeaway: Inter-state river water dispute adjudication is governed under Article 262 tribunals, not the Article 263 Inter-State Council.
