Explanation

Row 1 is wrong: the R.N. Malhotra Committee (1993) on insurance reform was set up by the Government of India, since IRDA itself came only in 1999 on its recommendation. Row 2 is right: the L.C. Gupta Committee was a SEBI committee on introducing derivatives trading. Row 3 is wrong: the Urjit Patel Committee (2014) was an RBI expert committee on revising the monetary policy framework (inflation targeting), not housing loans. Row 4 is right: the Y.H. Malegam Committee (2010) was an RBI sub-committee on the microfinance sector.
