Solution

The correct option is A Legislative Council

The constitution of India has full provisions about the creation of legislative council and its abolishment. The power of abolition and creation of the State legislative council is vested in Parliament of India as per article 169. But again, to create or to abolish a state legislative council, the state legislative assembly must pass a resolution, which must be supported by majority of the strength of the house and 2/3rd majority of the present and voting. When a legislative council is created or abolished, the Constitution of India is also changed. However, still, such type of law is not considered a Constitution Amendment Bill. The resolution to create and abolish a state legislative council is to be assented by the President also.
