The correct answer is D) without the consent of any State.

Article 253 of the Indian Constitution empowers the Parliament to make any law for the whole or any part of the territory of India for implementing any treaty, agreement or convention with any other country or countries or any decision made at any international conference, association or other body. This power is independent of the distribution of legislative powers between the Union and the States, and Parliament can legislate on State List subjects if necessary to implement international obligations, without requiring the consent of the concerned States.

This provision ensures that India can fulfill its international commitments effectively and speaks to the supremacy of the Union Parliament in matters concerning international relations and their implementation domestically. This article is located in Part XI of the Constitution, which deals with relations between the Union and the States.
