A Correct answer
Explanation

 The sentence has two subjects, acting separately. Ideally there should be two subjects and two verbs. But, to avoid repetition, 'is' is omitted the second time. 'He an Indian' will not make sense. So, we need a comma after 'he' to indicate the missing verb and to represent the pause.
