-
B.
Canada
-
C.
Australia
-
D.
UK
Correct Answer:
C. Australia
Explanation:
The concept of the Concurrent List in the Indian Constitution is inspired by the Constitution of Australia. This list, found in the Seventh Schedule, contains subjects upon which both the Central and State governments have the authority to legislate. While both levels of government can create laws on these matters, in the event of a conflict or inconsistency between a Central law and a State law, the law passed by the Parliament typically prevails. Originally containing 47 subjects, the Concurrent List now includes 52 items, such as education, forests, and marriage, following various constitutional amendments like the 42nd Amendment Act of 1976.
