Answer:
The
Constitution did not use the word 'Federation' but it has the division of
powers into a three-tier system of the central government, the state governments
and the local governments. The Constitution of India has also mentioned the
distribution of legislative powers in the form of three lists namely?Union,
State and Concurrent. So each level of the government has its own jurisdiction to
legislate. But we have a centralized federation in which Union government
carries more powers than the State governments. It is seen in such a way that
Union government has 97 subjects, whereas State as well as Concurrent lists
have much less number of subjects. Besides, Union government also has the power
to legislate on the residuary powers.
