Answers

Answer:
Quasi federal refers to a system of government where the distribution of powers between the center and the state are not equal. India is a federation with a unitary bias and is referred as a quasi federal state because of strong central machinery.
The Constitution of India has not described India as a federation. On the other hand, Article 1 of the Constitution describes India as a “Union of States.” This means, India is a union comprising of various States which are integral parts of it. The Indian Union is not destructible. Here, the States cannot break away from the union. They do not have the right to secede from the union. In a true federation, the constituting units or the States have the freedom to come out of the union. India is not a true federation. It combines the features of a federal government and the features of a unitary government which can also be called the non-federal features. Because of this, India is regarded as a semi-federal state. Prof K.C Wheare describes it as “a quasi-federal state”. The Supreme Court of India also describes it as “a federal structure with a strong bias towards the Centre”.
