Explanation:

Both codes 1&2 are correct.
The Ministry of Environment and Forests of India set up in March 2010 an expert panel (Gadgil commission) to find a strategy for conserving these Ghats.

The Gadgil report, published in 2011 highlighted the ecological sensitivity of the Western Ghats and the need to protect the region by restricting activities there.

The central government-appointed Kasturirangan committee had come up with a comprehensive report on the Western Ghats in 2013, proposing several measures that six states must take to protect the Western Ghats mountain range.

T. S. R Subramanian Committee was constituted under the Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) in October,2015. The report proposes an Education Policy, which seeks to address challenges faced by the current education system.

Hence option 1st is correct.
