Verified by Toppr

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. The Supreme Court of India also describes it as a federal structure with a strong bias towards the Centre.
