B Correct answer
Explanation

Municipal bodies (local government institutions like municipal corporations) can be abolished by state legislatures through constitutional amendment, but they cannot be 'dissolved' in the sense of their constitutional existence being permanently eliminated. This is a nuanced constitutional distinction. Rajya Sabha (Upper House) and State Legislative Councils are permanent constitutional houses that cannot be abolished easily.
