Explanation
The sentence runs 'not only ___ all parts of India, but in other countries around the world as well.' Parallelism demands 'in' to match 'but in other countries.' 'In all parts of India' is also the natural collocation; 'over all parts' is unidiomatic, the idiom being 'all over India.' Hence (c) is correct.
