The correct answer is Simile.

Key Points

The figure of speech used in the expression "Chandu's uniform fits him like a glove" is a simile.
A simile is a figure of speech that compares two things using the words "like" or "as".
In this case, the speaker is comparing the way Chandu's uniform fits him to the way a glove fits a hand.
The simile is used to emphasize how well the uniform fits Chandu, suggesting that it is perfectly tailored to his body.
Thus, option 2 is the correct answer.
