Explanation:

Article 74 of Indian constitution provides for the Council of Ministers to aid and advise President. The President appoints the council of ministers and distributes portfolios among them on the advice of the Prime Minister. On his recommendation, the President can dismiss any minister from the council of ministers. Virtually, the President has no say in these matters as these constitute the prerogatives of the Prime Minister. Hence option 4th is incorrect.
