Correct Answer: C. India
Explanation: The concept of a "federation with a strong center" is a defining characteristic of the Indian Constitution, which was primarily modeled after the constitutional framework of Canada. While both the United States and Australia are also federations, their systems typically grant more significant residual powers to the states. In contrast, the Canadian model emphasizes a centralized federal structure where the national government maintains superior authority and holds residuary powers. The framers of the Indian Constitution chose this centralized approach to ensure national unity and stability, borrowing specific features from Canada such as the appointment of state governors by the central government and the advisory jurisdiction of the Supreme Court.
