Which one of the following is not the ground of removal of Chairperson or a member of National Commission for Women?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer D
Under Section 4(3)(e) of the National Commission for Women Act, 1990, the Chairperson or a Member is liable to be removed from office only if she or he is, without obtaining leave of absence from the Commission, absent from three consecutive meetings of the Commission; therefore, being absent from two consecutive meetings of the commission is not a ground for removal. By contrast, becoming an undischarged insolvent (Section 4(3)(a)), being convicted and sentenced to imprisonment for an offence involving moral turpitude in the opinion of the Central Government (Section 4(3)(b)), and becoming of unsound mind and standing so declared by a competent court (Section 4(3)(c)) are all statutory grounds for removal.
