-
A.
Rajya Sabha only
-
B.
Legislative Assembly
-
C.
Both Rajya Sabha and Lok Sabha
-
D.
Lok Sabha only
Correct Answer:
D. Lok Sabha only
Explanation:
The President of India has the constitutional authority to dissolve only the Lok Sabha, which is the lower house of Parliament. In contrast, the Rajya Sabha is a permanent body and is not subject to dissolution, though a portion of its members retire every two years. Therefore, the power to dissolve applies exclusively to the Lok Sabha, typically exercised on the advice of the Prime Minister and the Council of Ministers.
