Explanation:

Cooperative federalism means that though there is a constitutional provision for the distribution of powers, in practice, these powers are to be exercised jointly by the Centre and the States.

NITI Aayog has stated two key features of cooperative federalism :
(1) a joint focus on the National Development Agenda by the Centre and States and
(2) advocacy of concerns and issues of States and Union Territories with Central Ministries.
