Correct Answer: Option D

Explanation

1. The question concerns the power of the Indian Parliament to enact laws for implementing international treaties. 2. Article 253 of the Constitution specifically empowers Parliament to make laws for the whole or any part of India to implement any treaty, agreement, or convention with foreign countries or decisions made at international bodies. 3. This legislative power prevails over the normal division of powers between the Union and the States, meaning Parliament can legislate on subjects in the State List if necessary for implementing international obligations. 4. Article 253 explicitly allows Parliament to do this without the consent of any State.
