Under Section 64F of the Insurance Act, 1938, how is the Chairperson of the Executive Committee of the Life Insurance Council chosen?

The Chairperson is elected from among the four insurer representatives who were elected by the Council's members. Section 64F(1) proviso requires one of the clause (a) representatives to be elected as Chairperson, so the post is not filled by Authority nomination or by the Secretary.
