Under the Seventh Schedule to the Constitution of India, which of the following is the correct description of the three Lists?
The Seventh Schedule contains three lists: the Union List, the State List and the Concurrent List. Residuary subjects are not a list but are vested in Parliament under Article 248, and there is no Local or Provincial list in the Schedule.
- AUnion List, State List and Concurrent ListCorrect
- BUnion List, State List and Local List
- CCentral List, Provincial List and Joint List
- DUnion List, Concurrent List and Residuary List
Explanation
The Seventh Schedule distributes legislative subjects among the Union List (List I), the State List (List II) and the Concurrent List (List III). Residuary powers are not a separate list; they are vested in Parliament by Article 248. Hence option 4 is wrong.
