Option 1 -> Incorrectly matches Lalit Kala Akademi with 1861 and ASI with 1954, reversing their actual establishment years.
Option 2 -> Incorrectly places ASI at 1987 and IGNCA at 1954, which are historically inaccurate.
Option 3 -> Correctly matches: Lalit Kala Akademi (1954), National School of Drama (1959), Archaeological Survey of India (1861), and IGNCA (1987).
Option 4 -> Incorrectly pairs ASI with 1987 and IGNCA with 1861, reversing over a century of history.
Hence, Option 3: (A) - (II), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (III) -> The Archaeological Survey of India is the oldest (1861), followed by Lalit Kala Akademi (1954) promoting visual arts, National School of Drama (1959) for theatre arts, and Indira Gandhi National Centre for the Arts (1987) as a comprehensive cultural research institution -> correct
