our constitution adopted a federal structure where states can govern independently yet centre will maintain its control over the states.
The characteristics of federalism are:
a. It is an institutional mechanism to accomodate two sets of polities - one at the regional level and other at the national level. so here in india, we are having two types of government one at the state level and other at the national level. and these governments are independent. in some countries, like USA there is a system of dual citizenship which means that USA citizens has two citizenship , one of USA and other of there state. but in india we have only one citizenship that is of indian nationality.our constitution does not recognise any other nationality that is of being assamese, bengali etc.
b. but yes, if we are not having two types citizenship but we are surely having two types of identities. that is we are identified as assamese, bengali, gujarati or kashmiri but at the same time we are identified as an indian also. Therefore, each level government has their own powers, responsibilities and a separate system of governance.
c. the powers , responsibilities and their manner of goevrnance are written in the constitution, which is considered supreme. but issues which concern the entire country like foreign policy, defence, those powers have been given to union. so our written constitution has clear demarcation of powers of union and state
d. and if any conflict arises over the demarcation of powers between centre and state , then the judiciary intervenes to settle the disputes.
Besides these factors; politics, culture, ideology and history determine the actual working of a federation. if the politics of the country is giving emphasis to only one region and neglecting the other , then anger will be there in the other region to protest, demand and finally secede from Indian territory.
culture also keeps the people united as we all share indian culture together. and history has also kept us united as we share our freedom struggle and independence movement.
hope this will help you. ....................
