The correct answer is option 2: 2. The President of India can nominate two members from the Anglo-Indian community to the Parliament. This provision is mentioned in Article 331 of the Indian Constitution. Anglo-Indians are a community of people with mixed Indian and European ancestry, often with a British background. The nomination of Anglo-Indian members is done to ensure their representation in the Parliament, as they are a distinct community with unique cultural and historical significance. These nominated members have the same rights and privileges as elected members and can participate in the legislative processes of the country.
