Answer 1

P and Q

Explanation:

Because summoning or proroguing Parliament (Statement P) and dissolving the Lok Sabha (Statement Q) are valid legislative powers of the President. The remaining statements are incorrect because the Anglo-Indian nomination (Statement R) has been abolished by the 104th Amendment, and appointing State Governors (Statement S) is an executive power, not a legislative one.
