Which one of the following is a non- statutory body?
National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC)
A statutory body is one created by an Act of Parliament or a State Legislature, whereas a non-statutory (executive/autonomous) body is set up by an executive decision without a specific enabling statute.
The National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE) was established under the NCTE Act, 1993; the Bar Council of India (BCI) under the Advocates Act, 1961; and the Rehabilitation Council of India (RCI) under the RCI Act, 1992 — all three are statutory bodies.
The National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC), however, is an autonomous institution established by the University Grants Commission (UGC); it is not created by a separate statute, making it a non-statutory body.
Therefore the correct answer is National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC).
Correct answer: National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC)
