Answer:
In a
unitary form of government, the national government has all the powers. Any
Constitutional powers given to the states or regions of the country are dependent
on the national government, which can withdraw from them at any time. Sri Lanka
is one such example.
In the federal form of government like in India, the powers are divided
between the National Government and the various State Government.
Both levels have their areas of jurisdiction. In a unitary
system, the State Government does not have power of its own. The Central
Government can pass on orders to the local government.
But in a federal system a State Government has powers of its
own for which it is not answerable to the Central Government. Central
Government cannot order the State
Government to do something for which the state has the power.
