Answer

B

Explanation

The Constitution itself answers all three claims: Article 393 supplies the short title 'Constitution of India'; Article 395 repeals the Indian Independence Act, 1947 and Government of India Act, 1935; and Article 394 provides that the remaining provisions came into force on 26 January 1950. Therefore none of the three 'there is no Article...' statements is correct → B.
