Subject: Polity
Book: Indian Polity by M. Laxmikanth
Characterized by dual governance: the Union at the center and states at the periphery. The Seventh Schedule outlines separate, concurrent, and union lists. Despite featuring federal elements like a written Constitution and an independent judiciary, India is often called “quasi-federal” due to a strong central government, single citizenship, and the ability of Parliament to reorganize states unilaterally. State and central governments coordinate on key areas such as finance and planning through institutions like the Finance Commission and Inter-State Council. The Supreme Court adjudicates center-state disputes, ensuring the union’s cohesion. Understanding India’s federal traits clarifies how diverse regions unite within a single constitutional framework.
