Correct Answer: B and C only


Solution : The correct options are B and C only.

The Government of India Act 1935 established a Public Service Commission for the Federation of India, which was responsible for recruiting officers for the All India Services and other central government posts. The Act also allowed for the establishment of provincial public service commissions in each province or group of provinces. The Federal Public Service Commission came to be known as the Union Public Service Commission under Clause 1 of Article 378 of the Constitution in 1950." When India adopted its Constitution in 1950, the Federal Public Service Commission was renamed the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC). This change was made under Clause 1 of Article 378 of the Constitution.
