ANSWER:
India’s Constitution is distinctive in its spirit as well as contents. Although taken from early every constitution across the globe, the Indian constitution has several salient features which differentiate it from the constitutions of other nations.
EXPLANATION:
The 3 provisions of India’s constitution that have been derived from constitutions of different nations are:
Parliamentary Form of Govt. (UK): India has a Parliamentary system of govt., wherein it has a bi-cameral legislature with 2 houses namely the Rajya Sabha (upper house/council of states) and the Lok Sabha (lower house/house of the people). In this form of govt.,there is no definite split-up of powers of executive and legislative organs.
The govt. is commanded by the PM, and the govt. power is exercised by the PM and his/her Council of Ministers who jointly enjoy the trust/support of the House and who let know the President in what way the Union’s executive powers will be exercised.
The President, as the head of the legislature, has complete powers to convene or discontinue a session of either house of the Parliament or to dissolve the Lok Sabha. However, the President can use these powers only upon the PM’s and his/her Council of Ministers’ advice.
Fundamental Duties (Russia): This provision states that Indian citizens along with enjoying fundamental rights, they must also execute their fundamental duties. Some of the fundamental duties that the Indian Constitution stipulates are to obey the Constitution and value its institutions and ideals, the National Anthem and the National Flag; to preserve and protect the unity, integrity, and sovereignty of India; to guard public assets and to shun violence.
To endeavour towards excellence in all areas of collective and individual activity such that the country continually rises to greater levels of achievement and endeavour; to promote harmony and the common brotherhood spirit amongst all Indian people surpassing religious, sectional, regional, and linguistic diversities; to abandon practices condemnatory to women’s dignity, among others.
The Supreme Commandant of the Armed Forces of India is the President (USA): The Indian President is the Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces of India, while the real control remains with the executive led by the Indian PM. The Armed Forces of India are India’s military forces comprising specialised uniformed services: the Indian Navy, the Indian Air Force, and the Indian Army. The Armed Forces of India are administered and supervised by the Defence Ministry of the Indian govt.
