खालीलपैकी कोणता राज्याच्या राज्यपालाचा स्व-विवेकाधीन अधिकार नाही ?

The correct answer is Option B (Dissolving the Vidhan Sabha).

Key Points:
• Under Article 163 of the Constitution, the Governor has discretionary powers in specific situations:
• Reserving a bill for the President's consideration (Article 200) is a discretionary power.
• Sending a report to the President regarding the breakdown of constitutional machinery in the state (President's Rule under Article 356) is done in their discretion.
• Nominating a member of the Anglo-Indian community (formerly under Article 333) was exercised based on constitutional provisions/council aid, but dissolving the Vidhan Sabha is normally done on the aid and advice of the Chief Minister and Council of Ministers, except when no party holds a clear majority (hung assembly).
• Specifically, dissolving the Vidhan Sabha on ministerial advice is an executive power exercised on aid and advice, whereas in standard MPSC polity classifications, dissolving the assembly arbitrarily without ministerial advice is a discretionary gray area, but dissolving it *on advice* is not purely discretionary. However, let's examine the standard constitutional distinction: Dissolving the assembly when the ruling ministry loses majority is advice-bound, making general dissolution *on advice* an executive routine power, whereas the other three are explicit discretionary or constitutional crisis prerogatives.
• Therefore, dissolving the Vidhan Sabha when acting on cabinet advice is not classified as a pure discretionary power, making Option (2) the official answer.
• Key Takeaway: Dissolving the Vidhan Sabha is executed on cabinet aid and advice, unlike explicit discretionary powers like reserving bills or reporting constitutional breakdown.
