Solution

The correct option is C Dismissing the government

The Speaker hold supreme authority in the Lok Sabha and maintains discipline and decorum in the House. However, the Speaker cannot dismiss the government or the executive wing of the Parliament. As long as the Council of elected ministers have the confidence of majority in the Lok Sabha, the government continues to functions. The Lok Sabha can dismiss the government through a vote of no-confidence.
