Only one pair is correctly matched: The Fifth Schedule contains provisions relating to the administration and control of Scheduled Areas and Scheduled Tribes.
Let’s examine the other pairs: 1. First Schedule lists the States and Union Territories and their territories (Forms of Oaths are in the Third Schedule). 2. Third Schedule contains the Forms of Oaths or Affirmations for various functionaries (Allocation of seats in the Council of States is in the Fourth Schedule). 4. Ninth Schedule contains acts and regulations that are protected from judicial review (Provisions related to the administration of tribal areas in certain States like Assam, Meghalaya, Tripura, and Mizoram are in the Sixth Schedule).
The Schedules of the Constitution of India are lists that categorize and tabulate bureaucratic activity and policy of the Government. There are currently twelve schedules.
