The correct answer is

Giorgia Meloni

 Giorgia Meloni is the Prime Minister of Italy — option 4.

The facts. She took office on 22 October 2022, after the general election of September that year, as the leader of the Fratelli d’Italia (Brothers of Italy) party at the head of a coalition of the right. She is the first woman to hold the office in Italy.

DetailFact
Took office22 October 2022
PartyBrothers of Italy
DistinctionFirst woman Prime Minister of Italy
In 2024Italy held the G7 presidency and hosted the summit in Apulia in June, to which India was invited

Why the other three names are offered. All are prominent Italian women in public life, which is what makes the question demanding rather than easy :

NameKnown for
Emma BoninoLong-serving Radical politician; European Commissioner and Foreign Minister of Italy
Rosy BindiMinister of Health, and President of the Chamber of Deputies’ anti-mafia commission
Laura BoldriniPresident of the Chamber of Deputies, 2013–18

Italy’s system. It is a parliamentary republic. The President is head of state, elected for seven years by Parliament together with regional delegates — Sergio Mattarella has held that office since 2015. The Prime Minister, formally the President of the Council of Ministers, heads the government and must retain the confidence of both chambers. Italian governments have been notably short-lived: there have been some seventy since the republic was founded in 1946.

The India connection in 2024 : the Prime Minister of India attended the G7 summit at Borgo Egnazia in Apulia as an outreach guest, and India and Italy have been developing a strategic partnership covering defence, trade and migration.

Hence, the answer is Giorgia Meloni.
