Option 1 refers to challenging the elections of the office-bearers of a political party. While this may involve a legal matter, it is a specific issue related to a particular political party, rather than a public litigation petition.

Option 2 refers to petitions against political interference. This could potentially fall under public litigation, as it concerns protection against unlawful acts by political entities.

Option 3 refers to petitions against the decision of a Lower Court. This also may involve a legal matter, but it is a specific case and not a general topic that qualifies as public litigation.

Option 4, the correct answer, refers to petitions against a general topic. Public litigation petitions are typically filed before the High Court or Supreme Court to address broader social, political, or constitutional issues that affect the public at large.
