The correct answer is B) Thakkar Commission.
The Thakkar Commission was appointed in 1984 to inquire into the assassination of Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. Its scope was strictly related to the security lapses and events surrounding the assassination, and it did not examine issues related to Centre-State relations or the removal of the Governor of a State.
The other commissions mentioned:
– The Sarkaria Commission (1983) was set up to examine the relationship and balance of power between the central and state governments. It specifically addressed the appointment, role, and potential removal of Governors.
– The National Commission to Review the Working of the Constitution (Venkatachaliah Commission, 2000-2002) also reviewed the provisions relating to the office of the Governor.
– The Punchhi Commission (2007) was constituted to look into Centre-State relations, including the role, functions, and removal of Governors.
