What is Parliament's role in constitutional amendment?

Correct answer: Passing a Bill to amend the Constitution through a special procedure

Correct answer: A — Parliament passes a Constitutional Amendment Bill through the procedure laid down in the Constitution. A proposed amendment may be introduced in either House of Parliament. Depending on the provision, it generally requires a special majority in each House, and some federal provisions also require ratification by at least half of the State Legislatures. After Parliament completes the required procedure, the Bill goes to the President for assent. Parliament therefore has the central law-making role, but it cannot change the Constitution casually or by an ordinary executive order. Option B is wrong because the President cannot amend the Constitution alone without a Bill passed through the required process. Option C is wrong because the Supreme Court interprets the Constitution; it does not itself pass amendment Bills. Option D is wrong because Governors do not possess this power. Memory cue: amendment means a parliamentary Bill plus the constitutionally required majority.
