Explanation
The date for the election of the Speaker of the Lok Sabha is fixed by the President of India, and the election is then conducted with a pro-tem Speaker presiding. The Minister of Parliamentary Affairs, the Secretary General and the Deputy Speaker have no role in fixing this date. Hence the President of India is the correct answer.
