    C.

    D.

    Correct option is C

    The correct answer is (c) Part 7
    Explanation:
    • Part VII (Part 7) of the Indian Constitution is the only part that has been completely repealed (removed).
    • It contained only one Article, Article 238, which dealt with the administration of Part B States (princely states).
    • It was removed by the Constitution (7th Amendment) Act, 1956, which reorganized states on a linguistic basis and abolished the classification of states into Part A, B, C, and D.
    Information Booster:
    • Original Constitution: Originally had 22 Parts, 395 Articles, and 8 Schedules.
    • Current Status: The Constitution now has 25 Parts (due to additions like IV-A, IX-A, IX-B, XIV-A) but technically still numbered up to 22. Part VII remains deleted.
    • 7th Amendment: This amendment was based on the recommendations of the States Reorganization Commission (Fazl Ali Commission).
    Additional Knowledge:
    (a) Part 22 (Option a)
    • Deals with Short Title, Commencement, Authoritative Text in Hindi, and Repeals (Articles 393–395).
    (b) Part 11 (Option b)
    • Deals with Relations between the Union and the States (Legislative and Administrative relations) (Articles 245–263).
    (d) Part 5 (Option d)
    • Deals with The Union (Executive, Parliament, Judiciary, CAG) (Articles 52–151). It is the largest part of the Constitution.
