With reference to the organisations under the Government of India, consider the following details: 1. Central Economic Intelligence Bureau (CEIB) — To coordinate between various law enforcement agencies — Ministry of Home Affairs. 2. Serious Fraud Investigation Office (SFIO) — To investigate complex corporate frauds — Ministry of Finance. 3. Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) — To preserve values in public life and ensure the health of the national economy — Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pension. In how many of the above rows are the given details correctly matched?
A. 1
B. 2
C. 3
D. None
Answer

A

Explanation

CEIB's coordination role is correctly described but its controlling ministry is the Ministry of Finance, not Home Affairs. SFIO investigates complex corporate frauds but is under the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, not Finance. The CBI row is the only fully matched row in the question. Hence 1 row → A.
