Solution

The correct option is D None of the above
Explanation:
  • Statement 1 is incorrect. Their conditions of services are determined by the central executives, not by Parliament.
  • Statement 2 is incorrect. The Chief Information Commissioner or any Information Commissioner are removed from his office only by order of the President on the ground of proved misbehavior or incapacity after the Supreme Court, on a reference made to it by the President, has recommended their removal after conducting an inquiry.
Note:

Removal of Supreme court Judge:


A Judge of the Supreme Court cannot be removed from office except by an order of the President passed after an address in each House of Parliament supported by a majority of the total membership of that House and by a majority of not less than two-thirds of members present and voting, and presented to the President in the same Session for such removal on the ground of proved misbehavior or incapacity.
