The correct answer is option 4, C. Rangarajan.

The National Statistical Commission (NSC) was established by the Government of India to evaluate and address the shortcomings in the existing statistical system. The NSC plays a crucial role in providing independent advice to the government on statistical matters.

Option 1, I.G. Patel, is not the correct answer as he did not head the NSC.

Option 2, Raja J. Chelliah, also did not head the NSC.

Option 3, Bimal Jalan, is not the correct answer as he did not serve as the head of the NSC.

Therefore, option 4, C. Rangarajan, is the correct answer as he was the head of the National Statistical Commission appointed by the Government of India.
