Explanation:

"The Union Home Minister is the ex-officio chairman of this council."

This statement is incorrect. The Chairman of the North-Eastern Council is usually the Union Minister for Development of North Eastern Region (DoNER), not the Union Home Minister.

"This council is composed of all the North Eastern states."

This statement is correct. The North-Eastern Council includes all the North Eastern states of India.

"The process of the National Register of Citizens (NRC) in Assam is under the direct supervision of this council."

This statement is incorrect. The process of the NRC in Assam is not under the direct supervision of the North-Eastern Council. The NRC process is managed by the Registrar General of India under the supervision of the Supreme Court of India.
