Assertion (A): In Indian Constitution residuary powers are vested with the Union.

Reason (R): This practice is followed in the Canadian Constitution.

Both A and R is true and R is the correct explanation of A

Both A and R are true but R is not a correct explanation of A

A is true but R is false

A is false but R is true

The Constitution of India has vested the ‘residuary powers’ with the Centre. Residuary powers are those powers which can be made by the parliament only. It is different from 3 lists, union list, state list, and concurrent list. But, the final authority to decide whether a matter falls under the list of residuary powers or not, rests with the Supreme Court.
The concept of Residuary powers of the Centre was borrowed from Canada.
Therefore Both A and R are true but R is not a correct explanation of A. Hence option 2nd is correct.
