division of power between the Central and State Governments is done in a threefold
distribution of legislative powers between the Union Government and the State Government.
There are three lists?Union List, State List and Concurrent
List.
(a) Union List It includes subjects of national importance,
e.g., defence of the country, foreign affairs, banking, communication and
currency. The Central Government alone can make decisions on these matters.
The aim of including these matters in Union List is to ensure
uniformity in the policy of these areas throughout the country.
(b) State List It contains subjects of state and local importance
such as police, trade, commerce, agriculture and irrigation. The State
Government alone can make laws and decisions on these areas.
(c) Concurrent List It includes those subjects which are of
common interest to both the Central as well as State Governments. It includes
matters like education, forests, marriage and trade unions. Both the State and
Central Government can make decision on these matters.
