Question
Explain the term British Paramountcy.
Answer
- The British Paramountcy in India obviously connotes that the British had established such a power in India which was exercising supreme authority or jurisdiction over the Indian Native States, or which was above all other States in India in rank, order and jurisdiction.
- The doctrine of paramountcy is the legal principle that reconciles contradicting or conflicting laws in a federalist state, where both the central government, and the provincial or state governments, have the power to create laws in relation to the same matters. In a case where both central and state law exist, central laws will be given priority over state laws through the doctrine of supremacy. This is usually applied in cases of post-colonial indirect rule.
