Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D. Under Article 3 of the Constitution of India, the power to form new States and alter the areas, boundaries, or names of existing States is vested solely in the Parliament. Although the President refers the relevant Bill to the concerned State Legislature to express its views within a specified period, the Parliament is not bound by such views and can proceed with the legislation regardless of the State's opinion.

  • Option A: Article 14 (Equality before law) is guaranteed to all persons, including citizens and foreigners.
  • Option B: Article 16 (Equality of opportunity in public employment) is a Fundamental Right available only to Indian citizens.
  • Option C: Article 3 explicitly empowers the Parliament to create a new State by law.
