Solution

The correct option is D Both are wrong.
The Lok Sabha has a fixed term of five years since elections are held every five years. It can be dissolved before the term ends by the President, on the advice of the Prime Minister. If an emergency has been declared, then the term can be extended for one year at a time through the Parliament’s approval.
