The logic followed here is:

Logic: Relationship between a person and their primary function or role.

Here,

Police : : Protection → Police is related to Protection because the primary function of the police is to provide protection and maintain law and order.

Similarly,

Minister : Governance → Minister is related to Governance because the primary function of a minister is to govern, make decisions, and manage affairs of the government.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".
