federal power sharing in India is strengthened by third tier explain the statement.
Answers
Explanation:
Federalism has succeeded in India due to the nature of democratic policies in our country.
The policies adopted by India to ensure this success:
(i) Linguistic States: After independence, the boundaries of several old states were changed in order to create new states. The creation of linguistic states was the first and a major test for democratic politics in our country.
(ii) Language Policy: The second test for the Indian federation is the language policy. The Indian constitution did not give the status of national language to any one of the language.
(iii) Centre-State Relations: Restructuring the centre-state relations is one more way in which federalism has been strengthened in practice.
(iv) Decentralisation of Power: Power in India has been decentralised to the local government. The local government includes Panchayats in villages and municipalities in urban areas.
