changing nature of center state relations
Answers
Answer:
Party system is perhaps the most important intervening variable that significantly influences the working of a federal political system. This phase was marked by the domination of the Congress party both at the centre as well as in the states. The Congress party along with the charismatic leadership of Nehru further strengthened the centre. The issues in centre-state relations were resolved at the level of the party as its internal issue. The Planning Commission and the National Development Council (NDC), both created through executive resolutions, became Centre’s instruments of domination over states. The Planning Commission was to look after social service-education, medicine, health, agriculture, cooperation, social welfare and industrial housing which were all state subjects. The NDC was seen as an experiment on cooperative federation. But in one of its meetings, the states surrendered to the centre their sales tax on textile, sugar and tobacco. This period also saw misuse of Article 356 against the Communist government in Kerala in 1959.
