Explanation

The Commission for Center-State Relations (Sarkaria Commission) was an ad-hoc body constituted by the government in 1983 to examine and recommend improvements in center-state relations. It was not a permanent constitutionally mandated body. In contrast, the National SC/ST Commission, Election Commission, and earlier Planning Commission had statutory or constitutional bases. The Sarkaria Commission submitted its report and then ceased to exist.
