“Power should not be concentrated in the hands of so few, and powerlessness in the hands of so many”- Maggie Kuhn
ABSTRACT
A country consisting of 28 states and eight federal territories, India follows a federal system in which legislative, administrative and financial powers are divided between the federal / central and state governments. This research paper examines the legislative powers of the Centre and the detailed constitutional provisions for the three lists, namely the union list, the state list, and the states listed at the same time, under Article 245, Article 254 of the Constitution. In addition, this paper analyses the division of administrative power when the powers of unions and state governments extend to the subject of the list of unions and states, respectively, as defined in Article 256, Article 263 of the Constitution. The end-of-life study also educates readers about the exercise of administrative and legislative power over federal territory by the central government and the president of the country. Like other federal constitutions, the central and state governments work closely together, and in most cases one jurisdiction exclude the other.
