The correct answer is option 3: President. In India, the President is referred to as the Supreme Commander of the Indian Armed Forces. As the Supreme Commander, the President holds the highest authority and is responsible for the overall defense and security of the country. They have the power to appoint the chiefs of the Army, Navy, and Air Force, and make decisions on matters related to national security. The President also represents the country in matters related to defense and can declare war or make peace, subject to the approval of the Parliament. It is important to note that although other options like General of the Army or Field Marshal hold significant positions in the military hierarchy, they are not referred to as the Supreme Commander of the Forces.
