D Correct answer
Explanation

In the Indian parliamentary system, there is no fixed minimum percentage of seats required for a party to be recognized as the opposition. The opposition is simply the largest party not in power that is willing to form an alternative government. The 10% rule applies to being recognized as a national or state party, not specifically as opposition.
