Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Parliament.

In India, the power to regulate the right of citizenship is vested in the Parliament. The Parliament has the authority to enact laws concerning the acquisition, termination, and regulation of Indian citizenship. This power is exercised through various legislative acts, such as the Citizenship Act of 1955, which outlines the provisions and procedures for obtaining and losing Indian citizenship. The central government, through its legislative and administrative mechanisms, oversees and enforces these citizenship regulations.
