In the electrophilic substitution reactions of aniline, the -NH₂ group acts

As both Ortho and para directing group

The correct answer is Option (3) → As both Ortho and para directing group

In electrophilic substitution reactions of aniline, the –NH₂ group is a strong electron-donating group due to its +M (resonance) effect.

This activates the benzene ring and directs incoming electrophiles to the ortho and para positions.
