Correct Answer: Parliament
Solution : The correct answer is Parliament.
The Constitution of India grants the Parliament the 'residuary powers'. However, the ultimate authority to determine whether a subject belongs to the realm of residuary powers lies with the Supreme Court. It is the judiciary that decides if a matter falls within the ambit of the residuary list. Hence, the Judiciary holds the final say on this matter, just as it does with any other issue, by delivering a verdict.
