The correct option is B 2 only Explanation:
Statement 1 is incorrect: The Nehru Committee was chaired by Moti Lal Nehru, not by Jawahar Lal Nehru. Other prominent members of the Committee were Tej Bahadur Sapru, SC Bose, M.S. Aney, Mangal Singh, Ali Imam, Shuaib Qureshi and G.R. Pradhan.
Statement 2 is correct: It was set up to accept Lord Birkenhead’s challenge and to frame the constitution agreed by all. An All Parties Conference was convened for the purpose in Delhi and subsequently, the Nehru Committee was set up.
