Explanation:

- Article 108 provides the President of India the power to convene a joint sitting of both Houses of Parliament. This is a rare procedure used when there is a deadlock on a bill.

- Correct Answer: Option 3 - Article 108

- Article 331 allows the President to nominate two members of the Anglo-Indian community to the Lok Sabha if he or she believes they are inadequately represented.

- Article 105 deals with the powers and privileges of members of Parliament, not with joint sittings.

- Article 85 concerns the President’s role in summoning and proroguing sessions of Parliament but does not cover joint sittings.
