Hint:

Constitutional bodies are those mentioned directly in the Constitution of India, whereas non-constitutional bodies are created by the government.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

NITI Aayog (National Institution for Transforming India) is not a constitutional body. It was established in 2015 to replace the Planning Commission, but it does not have constitutional status. The Finance Commission, State Public Service Commission, and Election Commission are all constitutional bodies.
