Correct Answer: A Prime Minister of India


Solution : The correct choice is the first option.

The use of the indefinite article "a" before "Prime Minister of India" is incorrect. When referring to a specific position, such as the Prime Minister, the definite article "the" should be used.

Therefore, the correct sentence would be: " The Prime Minister of India will address the nation today on the occasion of Independence Day."
