    Question

    Legal sovereignty in India resides in the Constitution itself and not in 'We the People of India'. This idea was expressed in one of the following cases by the Supreme Court of India.

    A.

    Kesavananda Bharati v. State of Kerala

    B.

    Golaknath v. State of Punjab

    C.

    State of West Bengal v. Union of India

    D.

    Sajjah Singh v. State of Rajasthan

    Correct option is A

    The idea that legal sovereignty in India resides in the Constitution itself was laid down in the landmark case Kesavananda Bharati v. State of Kerala (1973). The Supreme Court ruled that the Constitution is the supreme law, and Parliament's power to amend the Constitution is limited by the Basic Structure Doctrine.
