Question

1Q. Differentiated between unitary form of government and federal form of government ?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

In a federal form of government, the central government shares its powers with the various constituent units of the country. For example, in India, power is divided between the government at the Centre and the various State governments.

In a unitary form of government, all the power is exercised by only one government. For example, in Sri Lanka, the national government has all the powers.

Answer 2

Answer : In a federation there is an independent judiciary to resolve conflicts between the centre and the states. There is no such mechanism in a unitary government. In a unitary form of government a unitary system of law prevails, but in a federation citizens have to obey two sets of laws

In a unitary government, all powers are concentrated in one central authority while in a federal government powers are distributed between the central and state governments. Both of them enjoy coordinate powers.
