The correct answer is 1, 2 and 3. Key Points The Election Commission of India is an autonomous constitutional authority responsible for administering Union and State election processes in India. Part XV of the Indian constitution deals with elections and establishes a commission for these matters. Originally the commission had only one election commissioner but after the Election Commissioner Amendment Act 1989, it has been made a multi-member body. Hence, Statement 3 is correct. The commission consists of one Chief Election Commissioner and two Election Commissioners. Hence, Statement 2 is correct. The President may from time to time fix and the appointment of the Chief Election Commissioner and other Election Commissioners shall, subject to the provisions of any law made in that behalf by Parliament. Hence, Statement 1 is correct. When any other Election Commissioner is so appointed the Chief Election Commissioner shall act as the Chairman of the Election Commission. Before each general election to the House of the People and the Legislative Assembly of each State, and before the first general election and thereafter before each biennial election to the Legislative Council of each State having such Council, the President may also appoint after consultation with the Election Commission such Regional Commissioners as he may consider necessary to assist the Election Commission in the performance of the functions conferred on the Commission. The President, or the Governor of a State, shall, when so requested by the Election Commission, make available to the Election Commission or a Regional Commissioner such staff as may be necessary for the discharge of the functions conferred on the Election Commission.
