Explanation:

When a vacancy occurs in the office of the President due to his resignation, removal , death or otherwise, the Vice-President acts as the President until a new President is elected. In case the office of the Vive-President is vacant, the Chief Justice of India acts as the President or discharges the functions of the President. Hence option 3rd is correct.
