Explanation:

A "public authority" is any authority or body or institution of self-government established or constituted
by or under the Constitution or by any other law made by the Parliament or a State Legislature or by
notification issued or order made by the Central Government or a State Government. The bodies owned,
controlled or substantially financed by the Central Government or a State Government and nonGovernment
organisations substantially financed by the Central Government or a State Government also
fall within the definition of public authority. The financing of the body or the NGO by the Government
may be direct or indirect. Hence, all institutions will come under Public Authority. Option '4' is the correct answer
