    Question

    According to the Supreme Court decision in S.R. Bommai Vs Union of India, the Constitution of India is:

    A.

    Federal

    B.

    Quasi federal

    C.

    Co-operative union

    D.

    None of the above

    Correct option is B


    The Supreme Court, in S.R. Bommai v. Union of India (1994), ruled that the Indian Constitution is quasi-federal, meaning it has both federal and unitary features. The Union government holds more power, especially during emergencies.
    Information Booster:
    The quasi-federal nature of the Constitution ensures a balance between Central control and State autonomy, with the Union having overriding powers in times of crisis.
    Additional Information:
    · Option (a): A purely federal system gives equal powers to the States, which is not the case in India.
    · Option (c): Co-operative union is not a recognized term in Indian Constitutional law.
    · Option (d): This option does not provide a correct classification for the Indian Constitution.
