Which of the following statements is/are true?
1. The concept of wage boards was first enunciated by the Minimum Wage Committee.
2. A wage board is bipartite in character.
3. Representatives of employers and workers on wage board are appointed by the government after consulting the concerned organisations
Answer and explanation
Correct answer D
Statement (iii) alone is true: on Indian Wage Boards, representatives of employers and workers are appointed by the Government in consultation with the respective organizations. Statement (i) is false because Wage Boards were recommended by the Fair Wages Committee (1948) and First Five-Year Plan (not the Minimum Wages Committee), and Statement (ii) is false because a Wage Board is *tripartite* (including an independent chairman and members), not bipartite.
