Solution

The correct option is D $B r O_{4}^{-}$
A reaction in which atoms of same element is simultaneously oxidised as well as reduced is called a disproportionation reaction. In $B r O_{4}^{-},$ Br is in the highest oxidation state of $+ 7$ , so it cannot oxidise further. Hence, it cannot show disproportionation reaction.
