Answer:
The appointer is Indian President.
a. The Election Commission of India is a permanent Constitutional Body because it was established in accordance with the Constitution on 25th January 1950. The Constitution of India has vested in the Election Commission of India the superintendence, direction and control of the entire process for conduct of elections to Parliament and Legislature of every State and to the offices of President and Vice-President of India, thus making it permanent for the functioning of democracy. Hence, Option A is correct. The rest of the bodies are not formed permanently in accordance with the Constitution and can be dissolved anytime, hence, incorrect.
b. The superintendence, direction and control of preparation of electoral rolls for, and the conduct of, elections to Parliament and State Legislatures and elections to the offices of the President and the Vice-President of India are vested in the Election Commission of India.
c.Article 324 of the Constitution provides that the power of superintendence, direction and control of elections to parliament, state legislatures, the office of president of India and the office of vice-president of India shall be vested in the election commission.
