C Correct answer
Explanation

Article 83 of the Constitution specifies that the Lok Sabha has a term of 5 years from its first meeting unless dissolved earlier. The 5-year term can be extended by Parliament during a national emergency. Four years (A) is incorrect as it's the minimum term before elections can be called, not the constitutional period.
