Federalism - Adjoining Past with Future India

Akash Chatterjee ^[2]

Abstract: The land of unity in diversity or so what India is termed as, is not merely an adage that has been repeated since a long time, it is the biggest truth of the nation, the realisation of which is up to the people who reside here and those who carry out the governance of the country as well. The land being home to this spectrum of multicultural diversity is a quintessence that is celebrated widely. The most astonishing aspect behind the evolution of the statehood is its manifestation in the present form- the unified characteristic despite the diverse component. With such a social fabric to be governed, the governing mechanism had to be apposite and hence federalism was incorporated into the political ideology of governance along with a strong central control at the same time. The uniqueness of Indian federalism lies nit just in its structural or functional modifications but also in its relevance and practical importance in the circumstances governing the country. The present study delves into analysing such a relevance against this backdrop and also focuses on two case studies of recent connection to the topic of study.
