Solution

The correct option is B Kerala
‘Kesavananda Bharati v/s State of Kerala’ was a landmark case in which the Supreme Court ruled that the Parliament cannot alter the basic structure of the Constitution of India. This effectively limited the amending power of the Parliament, and continues to act as a safeguard for the fundamental aspects of our democracy.
