Not attemptedCorrect Answer: (b) 2 only
CAT was established in 1985 under the Administrative Tribunals Act during Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi’s tenure, not Lal Bahadur Shastri’s; statement 1 is wrong. Its members are chosen from both judicial and administrative backgrounds, making statement 2 correct. Hence only statement 2 is right.
