Consider following statements regarding National Commission for Scheduled Castes (NCSC)

Article 338-A of the constitution of India deals with this commission.
Its recommendations are binding in nature.
It consists of a chairperson, a vice-chairperson and three other members which are appointed by President.

Select the incorrect statement.

1 only

1&2 only

2 only

All of the above

Explanation:

It is a constitutional body under article 338 appointed by the President.
It has been established with a view to provide safeguards against the exploitation of Scheduled Caste.
It consists of a chairperson, a vice-chairperson and three other members. They are appointed by the President by warrant under his hand and seal. Hence statement 3rd is correct.
Lack of infrastructure, lack of powers to take affirmative action (Commissions recommendations are not binding) have been some of the issues faced by the NCSC.

Note: National Commission for scheduled tribes was set up with effect from 19th February, 2004 by amending Article 338 and by inserting a new article 338A in the Constitution through the 89th Constitution Amendment Act, 2003.
