The correct answer is Option 2 - The Governor can dissolve the Legislative Assembly of a State.
Out of the given options, only the Governor can dissolve the Legislative Assembly of a State.
The Vice-President and the Speaker of the Lok Sabha don't have the authority to dissolve legislative bodies.
The President can dissolve the Lok Sabha, the lower house of Parliament, but not the Rajya Sabha (upper house) or the state legislative assemblies.
The Governor of a state holds the power to dissolve the state's Legislative Assembly under certain conditions, such as a hung assembly or after a no-confidence motion is passed against the government.
