Matching the commissions with their issues:
– Dar Commission (1948): Appointed to examine the feasibility of reorganization of states on a linguistic basis (Issue 3: Demand for Linguistic States).
– Kalelkar Commission (1953): The First Backward Classes Commission, chaired by Kaka Kalelkar (Issue 4: Backward Classes).

Thus, the correct match is A-3, B-4, C-1.
Specific commissions were appointed in Indian history to address significant issues like state reorganization, social backwardness, and national security events.
The Dar Commission opposed linguistic reorganization, preferring administrative convenience. The Kalelkar Commission submitted its report in 1955 but its recommendations were not fully accepted by the government. The Thakkar Commission investigated the security lapses leading to Indira Gandhi’s assassination.
