Show AnswerHide Answer
Correct Answer
A Only one pair
Model Answer
- The Fourth Schedule deals with the allocation of seats in the Rajya Sabha to the States and the Union Territories. The Tribes Advisory Council, which is to be constituted in each State having Scheduled Areas, is provided for under the Fifth Schedule. Hence, pair 1 is not correctly matched.
- The Sixth Schedule contains provisions for the administration of tribal areas in the States of Assam, Meghalaya, Tripura and Mizoram through Autonomous District Councils. Hence, pair 2 is correctly matched.
- Regional Councils are also constituted under the Sixth Schedule for the autonomous regions within an autonomous district, and not under the Fifth Schedule. Hence, pair 3 is not correctly matched.
- Therefore, only one pair is correctly matched.
