Answer» “Centre-State relations” of\xa0Indian Federalism\xa0constitute the core of\xa0federalism\xa0and they are regulated by the provisions of the Constitution. (i) The division of powers between the Union and the\xa0States, as given in the\xa0Indian\xa0Constitution has a strong bias in favour of the\xa0Centre.\xa0The Constitution of\xa0India\xa0provides a dual polity with a clear division of powers between the Union and the\xa0States, each being supreme within the sphere allotted to it.\xa0Key Features of Federalism:\tThere are two or more levels (or tiers) of government.\tDifferent tiers of government govern the same citizens, but each tier has its own jurisdiction in specific matters of legislation, taxation and administration.\tThe jurisdictions of the respective levels or tiers of government are specified in the constitution. “Centre-State relations” of Indian Federalism constitute the core of federalism and they are regulated by the provisions of the Constitution.(i) The division of powers between the Union and the States, as given in the Indian Constitution has a strong bias in favour of the Centre. Various kinds of restrictions are imposed upon the states.(ii) Administrative relations. The Indian Constitution is based on the principle that the executive power is co-extensive with the Legislative power i.e., Union and state executives can deal with all matters on which legislature legislates.(iii) In the administrative affairs also the centre acquires control over states through All India Services, Grant-in-Aid etc.Hence, restructuring of the centre-state relations is one more way in which federalism has been strengthened in practice. |
