Accepted Answer

Step-by-step reasoning:

- The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) composition under the Protection of Human Rights Act, 1993 includes:
  - Chairperson: a person who has been Chief Justice of India (i.e., a former Chief Justice of the Supreme Court).
  - One member who is, or has been, a Judge of the Supreme Court.
  - One member who is, or has been, the Chief Justice of a High Court.
  - Two members appointed from among persons having knowledge of human rights.

- Mapping the given items to the statutory posts:
  - $1$ District Magistrate — not part of the statutory composition.
  - $2$ Former Chief Justice of the High Court — included as one member.
  - $3$ Former Chief Justice of the Supreme Court — eligible to be Chairperson.
  - $4$ Former Judge of the Supreme Court — included as one member.

- Therefore, the only option that is NOT a member of the NHRC is the District Magistrate (option $1$).
