Explanation:

1, 2, 3 and 4

A written and rigid Constitution: The Indian Constitution is written and rigid, which means it's codified and not easily amendable. This contributes to the federal nature as it delineates powers and functions between the Centre and the States.

An independent Judiciary: An independent judiciary ensures the supremacy of the Constitution and protects federal principles by adjudicating disputes between the Centre and the States.

Dual Citizenship: While India follows the principle of single citizenship, dual citizenship is not a factor in determining the federal nature of the Constitution. India's citizenship system aligns with its unitary features.

Distribution of powers between the Centre and the States: The distribution of powers between the Centre and the States is a hallmark of federalism. The Indian Constitution clearly delineates powers through the Union List, State List, and Concurrent List, thus reflecting federal principles.

Therefore, the correct answer is 4.
