The President of India has the power to nominate two members to the Lok Sabha from the Anglo-Indian community. The Anglo-Indians are a community that emerged in India during the British colonial period. They are generally of mixed Indian and European ancestry and have their own distinct cultural and social identities.

Option 1, Anglo-Indians, is the correct answer. This community has been recognized and given representation in the Lok Sabha through nominations by the President. It is important to note that these nominations are made to ensure the representation of the Anglo-Indian community in the Parliament, as they may not be adequately represented through the regular electoral process.

Alert - correct answer should be: N/A
