Option C: To solve the legitimacy of elections

Detailed Solution:

The correct answer is “To solve the legitimacy of elections”.

However, resolving disputes about the legitimacy of an election (such as issues of fraud or misconduct) typically falls under the purview of the judiciary, not the Election Commission itself.
