The correct answer is D. All of these.

The Shah Commission was a judicial commission of inquiry set up by the Government of India in 1977 to inquire into the allegations of corruption and misuse of power during the Emergency (1975-1977). The commission was headed by Justice J. C. Shah, a former Chief Justice of India. The other members of the commission were S. Dutt, a former judge of the Supreme Court of India, and M. M. Philip, a former judge of the High Court of Madras.

The commission submitted its report in 1978. The report was highly critical of the Indira Gandhi government and its actions during the Emergency. The report recommended that several people, including Indira Gandhi, be prosecuted for corruption and misuse of power. However, no one was prosecuted as a result of the report.

The Shah Commission was a landmark inquiry into the Emergency. The report of the commission is a valuable source of information on the Emergency and its impact on India.
