Hi,
The word federalism means system of national government in which power is divided between center and the states.A true federalism would be one where more and more power is given to states.Countries like USA is great example of true federalism. It is basically power division method of a government whereas the word quasi means in spirit . So quasi federalism is a form of government which is federal in structure but unitary in spirit.for ex.India and Canada. These countries although have clear division of power between states and center but major control lies in hand of central government in the form of residual powers.Although India claims to be a Federal government but nowhere in the constitution it is mentioned as federal of states but as a union of states,while there is clear demarcation of powers between states and center on the other hand.This clearly proves India is quasi Federal in nature.
Hope this helps…:)
