C Correct answer
Explanation

Article 74(1) states that the President shall act on the aid and advice of the Council of Ministers. The powers of summoning, proroguing, and dissolving Parliament are exercised on the advice of the Council of Ministers, not just the Prime Minister. This ensures collective ministerial responsibility and prevents arbitrary presidential action.
