Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is: b) State Election Commission.
The State Election Commission is an independent body that is responsible for conducting elections to local bodies in Meghalaya. It was established in 1995 under the Meghalaya Panchayat Act, 1993. The Commission is headed by a Chief Election Commissioner, who is assisted by two Election Commissioners. The Commission is responsible for the preparation of electoral rolls, delimitation of constituencies, conduct of elections, and declaration of results.
The other options are incorrect because:
- The Election Commission of India is responsible for conducting elections to the Lok Sabha, Rajya Sabha, and State Legislative Assemblies.
- The District Collector is an administrative officer who is responsible for the implementation of government policies in a district.
- The Village Headman is a traditional leader who is elected by the villagers.
