The Gandhi Peace Prize is a prestigious international award presented annually by the Government of India. The recipient of this award is selected by a high-level Jury comprising distinguished individuals.

The composition of the Gandhi Peace Prize Jury includes:
1. The Prime Minister of India (who acts as the Chairperson of the Jury)
2. The Chief Justice of India
3. The Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha (or the leader of the single largest opposition party in the Lok Sabha)
4. Two other eminent personalities (which typically includes the Speaker of the Lok Sabha and another distinguished member)

While the President of India (Statement I) formally presents the Gandhi Peace Prize to the selected recipient, the President is not a member of the selection Jury. Therefore, statements II, III, and IV represent the members of the selection Jury.
