General knowledge

India is described as a 'Union of States' (Article 1), with a federal system with a strong centre (quasi-federal, as described by the scholar Kenneth Wheare); the Seventh Schedule divides powers into the Union, State and Concurrent Lists; the USA has a federal system; the UK has a unitary system.

यह बहुत पूछा जाता है: भारत को 'राज्यों का संघ' (अनुच्छेद 1) कहा गया है, जिसमें मज़बूत केंद्र वाली संघीय व्यवस्था है (अर्ध-संघीय, जैसा विद्वान Kenneth Wheare ने बताया); सातवीं अनुसूची शक्तियों को संघ, राज्य और समवर्ती सूचियों में बाँटती है; अमेरिका में संघीय व्यवस्था है; ब्रिटेन में एकात्मक।
