The correct answer is option 3, the Deputy Speaker of Lok Sabha. The Speaker of the Lok Sabha, who is the presiding officer of the lower house of the Indian Parliament, is elected by the members of the Lok Sabha. If the Speaker wishes to resign from their position, they must address their letter of resignation to the Deputy Speaker of Lok Sabha. It is important to note that the Speaker is not required to address their resignation letter to the Prime Minister, President, or Minister of Parliamentary Affairs. The Deputy Speaker plays a crucial role in assisting the Speaker in conducting the proceedings of the Lok Sabha, and therefore, it is appropriate for the resignation letter to be addressed to them.
