D Correct answer
Explanation

The UK is unique among major democracies in not having judicial review - its courts cannot strike down primary legislation passed by Parliament due to the doctrine of parliamentary sovereignty. The US, India, and France all have some form of judicial review power. Therefore, only option 'ii' (UK) is correct.
