Explanation:

Federalism is a system in which several states unite under a central authority,but are independent in internal affairs.Certain provisions of the Indian Constitution like Article 3 (formation of new States and alteration of areas, boundaries of existing States) and Article 248 which confers residuary powers with the Centre are violative of the federal principle. The Constitution of India is neither purely federal nor purely unitary but is a combination of both. Indian Constitution is quasi-federal.
