  4. D
    Speaker

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

The Vice-President of India is colloquially and critically termed "His Superfluous Highness" because the office is structured primarily to preserve political continuity and step in during an unexpected vacancy in the presidency. Outside of presiding over the Rajya Sabha, the position holds limited autonomous administrative weight, closely matching the design of the US Vice-Presidency.
