All of the above.

The Parliament of India cannot be regarded as a sovereign body because it can legislate only on subjects entrusted to the Centre by the Constitution, it has to operate within the limits prescribed by the Constitution, and the Supreme Court can declare laws passed by parliament as unconstitutional if they contravene the provisions of the Constitution.

I did not understand this. Please explain me.

I don't understand option C. Please someone explain it.

Like if any law or act is passed in parliament then the supreme court has the power to declare them as null and void if they're against the constitution eg: Fundamental rights.

The answer is D.

Because India is under rule of law. India follow all the provision set and confirmed by the constitution and no one is greater than constitution since sovereign head (President) is also elected under the provision of Article 53& 54.

And in this question, A, B & C all options ensure by the constitution itself. So all the options are true.

So, the answer is D.

I don't understand option C. Please someone explain it.

According to me, the answer is D because here the constitution is supreme and according to it the laws are framed and actions are taken through here the situation is considered as possible then its correct because in constitution sovereign, secular, democratic, republic all are written in the constitution.

First three options are true as the word sovereign means "to take any decision". In india, the parliament has to function within the limits prescribed by the constitution. In case of violation, the supreme court can oversee the parliament and take appropriate decision and the Indian polity is federal in structure, that is, the powers are divided between the states and the centre. The centre can legislate only on subjects enumerated in the union list and the concurrent list and it cannot legislate on subjects in the state list but with he consent of half of the state legislatures and rajya sabha it can legislate on subjects in the state list but the needs the approval of state legislatures. So, the parliament is not sovereign. Thank you.

I think d is the right answer because Indian constitute is a simplifying the democratic.

So obviously D answer is correct.

Sovereign means a single or supreme ruler.
