Answer and explanation
Correct answer B
In "S.R. Bommai V. Union of India" the Supreme Court expressly declared federalism, along with secularism and democracy, to be a basic feature of the Constitution. "A.K. Gopalan V. State of Madras", "Govind V. State of Madhya Pradesh" and "Maneka Gandhi V. Union of India" concern preventive detention, privacy and personal liberty, not the federal structure.
