{'solicitor general': [1, 0, 0, 4], 'auditor general': [3, 0, 2, 7], 'parliament': [15, 1, 3, 8], 'attorney general': [1, 0, 0, 1], 'meetings': [0, 0, 1, 6], 'member': [22, 5, 20, 36], 'houses': [13, 3, 5, 21], 'house': [15, 3, 9, 18], 'india': [8, 1, 7, 13], 'comptroller': [13, 1, 5, 18]}

The correct answer is option 4, The Attorney General of India. The Attorney General of India is the highest legal advisor to the government of India. They provide legal advice to the government on important legal matters and represent the government in various legal proceedings.

As per Article 76(2) of the Constitution of India, the Attorney General has the right to speak and take part in the proceedings of both Houses of Parliament. However, it is important to note that the Attorney General is not a member of either House of Parliament. They hold an ex-officio position and are not elected or appointed to represent any specific constituency.

The role of the Attorney General is to provide legal assistance and advice to the government and parliament on matters of law. They can attend the meetings of both Houses of Parliament to contribute their legal expertise and provide guidance on legislative matters. This allows them to actively participate in the discussions and decision-making process of the Parliament, even though they are not elected members.
