Explanation:

- Option 1: Chief Minister

The Chief Minister does not have the power to extend the functions of the State Public Service Commission. Their role is mainly executive and administrative, not constitutional in this context.

- Option 2: Governor

Correct Answer: The Governor has the authority, as per Article 318 and 321 of the Indian Constitution, to extend or specify the additional functions of the State Public Service Commission with respect to the services of the State or the local authority.

- Option 3: Advocate General of the State

The Advocate General is the chief legal advisor to the State Government and has no constitutional role in extending the functions of the commission.

- Option 4: State Legislature

The State Legislature can make laws related to the functioning of the commission, but the specific power to extend additional functions rests with the Governor.
