  1. A. Supreme Court
  2. B. President
  3. C. Prime Minister
  4. D. Parliament

Answer

Correct option: D - Parliament

In India, Parliament is the supreme law-making body. Under the Constitution of India, Parliament has the power to make new laws, amend existing laws, and repeal (abolish) them. Parliament consists of two Houses -- the Lok Sabha (House of the People) and the Rajya Sabha (Council of States) -- plus the President of India. The Supreme Court interprets laws but does not make them; the President gives assent to bills but is bound by parliamentary decisions; the Prime Minister leads the executive, not the legislative branch.
