D Correct answer
Explanation

Constitutional amendments in India follow the procedure laid down in Article 368, requiring special majorities in Parliament and sometimes ratification by states. The President cannot amend the Constitution unilaterally, and referendums are not part of the Indian amendment process. The Prime Minister must follow parliamentary procedure. This ensures amendments are neither too rigid nor too flexible.
