The Central Government nominates members to a State Consumer Protection Council. What is the limit on the number of such nominated members?
The Central Government may nominate not more than ten official or non-official members to the State Council. This cap applies specifically to Central nominees; other members representing prescribed interests are in a separate category fixed by rules.
- ANot exceeding five
- BNot exceeding tenCorrect
- CNot exceeding fifteen
- DNo limit; the number is as prescribed by the State
Explanation
Section 6(2)(c) provides for other official or non-official members, not exceeding ten, nominated by the Central Government. The number of members under clause (b) is prescribed separately, which is why option four is wrong.
