Which of these is not a feature of Indian federalism?
निम्नलिखित में से कौन – सा भारतीय संघवाद की विशेषता नहीं है?
Detailed Solution & Logic
Dual Citizenship / दोहरी नागरिकता
Explanation (व्याख्या)
Indian federalism (भारतीय संघवाद) is a system where power is shared between the Centre and States, but it does NOT include dual citizenship.
👉 भारत में संघीय व्यवस्था में नागरिकों को केवल एक ही नागरिकता (Single Citizenship) मिलती है। इसलिए दोहरी नागरिकता इसकी विशेषता नहीं है।
🏛️ Features of Indian Federalism (भारतीय संघवाद की विशेषताएँ)
✔️ Written Constitution / लिखित संविधान
- India has a detailed written Constitution.
- It clearly defines the powers of Centre and States.
👉 भारत का संविधान लिखित है और संघीय ढांचे को स्पष्ट करता है।
✔️ Division of Powers / शक्तियों का विभाजन
- Powers are divided into three lists:
- Union List (केंद्र सूची)
- State List (राज्य सूची)
- Concurrent List (समवर्ती सूची)
👉 केंद्र और राज्यों के बीच कार्यों का स्पष्ट विभाजन होता है।
✔️ Independent Judiciary / स्वतंत्र न्यायपालिका
- Supreme Court and High Courts protect the Constitution.
- It resolves disputes between Centre and States.
👉 न्यायपालिका संविधान की रक्षा करती है और संघीय संतुलन बनाए रखती है।
❌ Not a Feature: Dual Citizenship / दोहरी नागरिकता
- India follows Single Citizenship (एकल नागरिकता प्रणाली).
- A person is only a citizen of India, not of individual states.
- States do not issue separate citizenship.
👉 इसलिए “दोहरी नागरिकता” भारतीय संघवाद की विशेषता नहीं है।
🌟 Extra Facts (अतिरिक्त जानकारी)
- 🇮🇳 India is often called a Quasi-Federal State (अर्ध-संघीय राज्य) because:
- Centre is more powerful than states.
- Article 1 of the Constitution:
“India, that is Bharat, shall be a Union of States.” - ⚖️ During emergencies, Centre can take control over state powers.
- 🗳️ Unlike USA, India has strong centralization in administration.
Final Answer:
Dual Citizenship / दोहरी नागरिकता
