Q613

Indian Constitution is-

A.
Federal
B.
Quasi Federal
Answer
C.
Unitary
D.
Presidential

Answer: Option B

Solution

Answer: Option B
Solution:
Though Indian constitution has characteristics of federal structure, still it is called 'quasi-federal' in nature. This is because, in federal structure there is complete seperation of powers between center and states and center cannot interfere in affairs of state and vice-versa. Whereas in India there are provisions under which center can interfere in powers of state under few circumstances like national emergency, which makes it quasi-federal.
