Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
The Haryana Right to Service Commission (HRSC) is a statutory body set up under the Haryana Right to Service Act, 2014, to guarantee that specified public services are delivered to citizens within a fixed time limit. It is headed by a Chief Commissioner, supported by other Commissioners appointed by the State Government, who monitor compliance and penalise officials for delays in service delivery.
At the time this question was set (HTET 2023), the Chief Commissioner of the Haryana Right to Service Commission was Shri T. C. Gupta, a retired IAS officer of the Haryana cadre appointed by the State Government to this post.
Haryana Government notifications and the Commission's own records from that period confirm T. C. Gupta as the officeholder; none of the other names offered held this specific charge at the time, so the answer is uniquely determined.
Shri Vijay Vardhan is a senior Haryana-cadre IAS officer who went on to serve as Chief Secretary to the Government of Haryana, but not as Chief Commissioner of this Commission.
Shri Rajesh Khullar is a senior Haryana IAS officer who served as Principal Secretary to the Haryana Chief Minister and later as an Executive Director at the World Bank, not as head of this Commission.
Shri Vikas Gupta is not on record as having held the post of Chief Commissioner of this Commission at any point.
Note: Commission leadership is an appointed post that changes periodically; this answer reflects the position as of the HTET 2023 exam's timeframe.
