{'chief justice': [14, 1, 3, 5], 'appointments': [4, 0, 0, 1], 'chairman': [0, 0, 3, 5], 'lok sabha': [42, 3, 20, 27], 'president': [4, 0, 2, 1], 'chief': [4, 1, 3, 13], 'army staff': [1, 0, 1, 5], 'india': [8, 1, 7, 13], 'finance commission': [8, 1, 3, 1]}

The correct answer is option 4, Speaker of Lok Sabha. The President of India does not have the authority to appoint the Speaker of Lok Sabha. The Speaker of Lok Sabha is elected by the members of Lok Sabha, the lower house of the Parliament of India. The Speaker is responsible for conducting the proceedings in the Lok Sabha and ensuring that the rules and regulations are followed.

In contrast, the President of India does have the power to appoint the Chief Justice of India, who is the highest-ranking judge in the country`s judiciary. The President also has the authority to appoint the Chairman of the Finance Commission, which is a constitutional body responsible for recommending the distribution of financial resources between the central government and the state governments. The President also has the power to appoint the Chief of Army Staff, who is the highest-ranking military officer in the Indian Army.
