“Sharing of power between states and the centre governments is the basic to the structure of the Constitution of India”, because without this division of power it will be impossible to coexist in a diverse country like India. The states are significant parts of the union and the jurisdiction of both the state and union overlap at many areas, hence it is important to demarcate the boundaries , which are effectively done by the Constitution in India.
The Constitution clearly provided a three–fold distribution of legislative powers between the Union Government and the State Governments.
(i) Union List includes subjects of national importance such as defence of the country, foreign affairs, banking, communication and currency. The Union Government alone can make laws relating to the subjects mentioned in the Union List.
(ii) State List contains subjects of State and local importance such as police, trade, commerce, agriculture and irrigation. The State Governments alone can make laws relating to the subjects mentioned in the State List. This allows the constitution to avoid any conflict of power and clear jurisdictions.

As federalism has two or more levels of governments it has dual objectives.
(i) to safeguard and promote unity of the country.
(ii) and to accommodate regional diversity.
=> These two aspects are crucial for the institution and practice of federalism. The government at different levels should agree to some rules of power sharing.
=> They should also trust that each would abide by its part of agreement.
Hence, an ideal federal system has both aspects i.e., • Mutual trust and • Agreement to live together

In India, the consumer movement as a ‘social force’ originated with the necessity of protecting and promoting the interests of consumers against unethical and unfair trade practices. Because of all these efforts, a significant initiative was taken in 1986 by the Indian government. It has implemented the Consumer Protection Act 1986, popularly known as COPRA.
Consumers have the right to seek redressal against unfair trade practices and exploitation. The consumer movement in India has led to the formation of various organisations, known as consumer forums or consumer protection councils. They guide consumers on how to file cases in the consumer court.
COPRA, a three-tier quasi judicial machinery at the district, state and national levels was set up for redressal of consumer disputes.
- The district-level court called District Forum, which deals with the cases involving claims up to Rs 20 lakh
- The state level court called State Commission, which deals with the cases involving claims between Rs 20 lakh and Rs 1 crore.
- The national level court is known as the National Commission, which deals with cases involving claims exceeding Rs 1 crore. If a case is dismissed in district-level court, a consumer can also appeal in the state and subsequently in national-level courts.

India adopted multi-party system for the following reasons
(i) Being a vast, and diverse country, the multi-party system was needed to accommodate the vast population.
(ii) The diverse social and geographical features could not be represented with two or three parties.
(iii) The multi-party system in India evolved over a long time, depending on the nature of society, its social, regional division, its history of politics and its system of elections.
(iv) Multi-party system ensures a healthy competition between different parties and prevents dictatorship of a single party. Indian Constitution declares India as a democratic country. Multi-party system fulfils this criteria and provides chance for proper growth of the nation.
