Answer:

1:Federalism, mode of political organization that unites separate states or other polities within an overarching political system in a way that allows each to maintain its own integrity.

2:Jurisdiction is the practical authority granted to a legal body to administer justice, as defined by the kind of case, and the location of the issue. In federations like the United States, areas of jurisdiction apply to local, state, and federal levels.

3:KEY FEATURES OF FEDERALISM: 1)There are two or more levels (or tiers) of government. 2) Different tiers of government govern the same citizens, but each tier has its own jurisdictionin specific matters of legislation, taxation and administration. ... Such changes require the consent of both the levels of government.

4:The division of power between the Central and State Governments is done in a three fold distribution of legislative powers between the Union and the State Governments. There are three lists - Union List, State List and Concurrent List. ... Both the State and Central Governments can make decision on these matte

The division of power between the Central and State Governments is done in a three fold distribution of legislative powers between the Union and the State Governments.

There are three lists - Union List, State List and Concurrent List.

(i) Union List: It includes subjects of national importance, e.g., defence of the country, foreign affairs, banking, communication and currency. The Central Government alone can make decisions on these matters.

The aim of including these matters in Union List is to ensure uniformity in the policy of these areas throughout the country.

(ii) State List: It consists subjects of state and local importance such as police, trade, commerce, agriculture and irrigation. The State Governments alone can make laws and decisions on these areas.

(iii) Concurrent List: It includes those subjects which are of common interest to both the Central as well as State Governments. It includes matters like education, forests, marriage and trade unions. Both the State and Central Governments can make decision on these matters.

5:Article 370 of the Indian constitution gave special status to Jammu and Kashmir, a region located in the northern part of Indian subcontinent which was administered by India as a state from 1954 to 31 October 2019, conferring it with the power to have a separate constitution, a state flag and autonomy over the internal administration of the state.[1][2] The Indian-administered Jammu and Kashmir is part of the larger region of Kashmir which has been a subject of dispute since 1947 between India, Pakistan and, partly, China.[3][4]

6:A Union Territory or UT is a type of administrative division. Unlike the states, which have their own governments, a UT is governed directly by the Union Government. ... In the constitution wherever it refers to Territories of India, it is applicable to whole country including union territories.

7:It is difficult to make changes in power-sharing arrangement between the Union government and the State government. The Parliament alone cannot make the changes. Any proposal has to be first approved by both houses of the Parliament, the Rajya Sabha and the Lok Sabha. Any decision has to be approved by at least two-thirds of the majority. Then the proposed change has to be approved by the legislatures of at least half of the total states.

8:In case of any dispute about the division of powers, the High Courts and the Supreme Court make a decision. The Union and State governments have the power to raise resources by levying taxes in order to carry on the government and the responsibilities assigned to each of them.
