A
the states of Punjab and Haryana
B
the territory transferred to the Union Territory of Himachal Pradesh
C
Both (1) and (2)
D
None of the above
Correct Option:
C
Explanation
The Punjab Agricultural Produce Markets Act, 1961, as extended following reorganisation, covered Punjab and Haryana and also the territories transferred to the then Union Territory of Himachal Pradesh. The statutory extension also referred to Chandigarh, but that does not make either statement (1) or (2) false. Therefore "Both" is correct.
