Not attemptedCorrect Answer: (d) 1 and 4
The Tea Board is a statutory body established under the Tea Act 1953 (Statement 1 correct) and functions under the Ministry of Commerce & Industry, not the Ministry of Agriculture (Statement 2 wrong). Its head office is in Kolkata, not Bengaluru (Statement 3 wrong). In 2022 it maintained overseas offices at Dubai and Moscow, so Statement 4 is correct. Therefore statements 1 and 4 only are correct.
