Answer:
Only 1
Notes: Only statement 1 is correct. State Finance Commissions are constituted by the Governor of each state (Article 243-I), but are enshrined in Part IX – not Part VI – of the Constitution. They recommend devolution of funds between the state and local bodies (Panchayats and Municipalities), not districts specifically.
