The Chairman of the Human Rights Commission at the union and state level can be removed in the same manner as that of a judge of the High Court.

This statement is incorrect. The Chairman of the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) can be removed only by the President of India after an inquiry, and the Chairman of the State Human Rights Commission (SHRC) can be removed by the Governor of the state.

The State Human Rights Commission can't inquire into the violation of human rights in respect of subjects mentioned in the Union list of the Seventh Schedule of the Constitution.

This statement is correct. The State Human Rights Commission does not have jurisdiction over matters in the Union list; it primarily deals with matters within the State list and Concurrent list.

Therefore, the correct option is 2 only.
