What to Focus On

  • Power is divided between central and regional governments.
  • Federalism has at least two levels of government.
  • Each level has its own powers and responsibilities.
  • Different levels of government have separate jurisdiction.
  • Powers are written in the Constitution.
  • Constitutional change needs consent of both levels.
  • Coming together federations begin with independent states.
  • Holding together federations begin with a large country dividing power.
  • India is a holding together federation.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

India is a coming together federation like the USA, Switzerland, and Australia.

The Constitution uses the word ‘federation’ for India.

In a federal system, the central government can order the state government to do anything.
