"Constitution of India is federal in form but unitary in spirit,"Support the statement withtwo examples |
|
Answer» It is federal in form because the states in India have certain levels of autonomy like the states in the United States, (each state can make certain laws and regulations with respect to that particular state) but is unitary in spirit because the constitution of India does not provide an option for the states to join the federation like in that of the United States. This was done after great deliberation and to ensure that India remained united and so that accession to the unity would not be voluntary but compulsory. The Federal form was primarily introduced for administrative ease and efficiency |
