D.

Correct option is C

The correct answer is (c) Article 323 B 

Explanation:
Article 323 B of the Indian Constitution empowers the appropriate Legislature (Parliament or a State Legislature) to establish tribunals for the adjudication of disputes relating to specific matters.
• These matters include taxation, foreign exchange, industrial and labour disputes, and importantly, land reforms.
• This Article provides a mechanism for setting up specialized quasi-judicial bodies to handle specific types of cases efficiently, reducing the burden on regular courts. 

Information Booster:
Article 323 A specifically deals with Administrative Tribunals (CAT, SATs) for service matters of government employees.
• The 42nd Amendment Act of 1976 introduced both Articles 323 A and 323 B as part of the Emergency provisions to facilitate speedier justice in specific areas. 

Additional Knowledge:
(a) Article 142 .:
• Article 142 grants the Supreme Court the power to pass any decree or order necessary for "doing complete justice" in any case or matter pending before it, which is a judicial power, not a legislative one for establishing tribunals. 

(b) Article 227 .:
• Article 227 gives High Courts the power of superintendence over all courts and tribunals throughout the territories, but not the power to establish legislative tribunals. 

(d) Article 124 A .:
• Article 124A deals with the National Judicial Appointments Commission (NJAC), which was struck down as unconstitutional; it's related to judicial appointments, not land reform tribunals.
