Question

According to the seventh schedule of the Indian Constitution, Agriculture is in whichlist? 

A.

Both Union and State List

B.

Concurrent list

C.

State list

D.

Union list

Correct option is C

In the Seventh Schedule of the Indian Constitution, Agriculture is listed under the State List (Entry 14, List II).

This means that the regulation of agriculture, including agricultural policies, practices, and land use, primarily falls under the jurisdiction of individual state governments in India.

States have the authority to make laws on this subject, though the Union government can also legislate on certain aspects under special circumstances.

Additional Information:
  • Union List (List I): Covers matters on which only the central government can legislate, such as defense, foreign affairs, and interstate trade.
  • State List (List II): Deals with matters on which the state governments have exclusive power to legislate, like police, public health, and agriculture.
  • Concurrent List (List III): Includes subjects where both central and state governments can legislate, such as criminal law, marriage and divorce, and bankruptcy.

Other Options:

  • Concurrent List: Agriculture is not part of this list, as it is primarily under state control.
  • Union List: The Union government can make laws related to agriculture under specific circumstances, but agriculture itself is not listed here.
  • Both Union and State List: While both levels of government may legislate on some aspects (like agriculture-related taxation), the primary responsibility for agriculture lies with the states.
