The question pertains to the Right to Information (RTI) Act in India, specifically focusing on the appointment process of the Chief Information Commissioner and Information Commissioners.

1. The first statement claims that the Chief Information Commissioner and other Information Commissioners are appointed by the President of India on the recommendation of a committee headed by the Chief Justice of India.

This is incorrect. As per the RTI Act 2005, they are appointed by the President based on the recommendation of a committee consisting of:

• The Prime Minister, who is the Chairperson
• The Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha
• A Union Cabinet Minister nominated by the Prime Minister

1. The second statement suggests that the Chief Information Commissioner is not eligible for reappointment after completing the term of five years, whereas other Information Commissioners are eligible for reappointment.

This is also incorrect. According to the RTI Act, neither the Chief Information Commissioner nor other Information Commissioners are eligible for reappointment after completing their term. Thus, both are subject to the same rule concerning reappointment.

After examining both statements, it is clear that neither of them is correct. Therefore, the correct answer is Neither 1 nor 2.

This question tests knowledge about the RTI Act, focusing on the composition and rules governing the Information Commission. It is essential for candidates to understand the differences in appointment processes under various acts and the specific rules of tenure and reappointment. Such factual questions highlight the importance of a detailed understanding of legislative provisions concerning Indian governance and administration.
