Q95 (CDS-I/2026) Polity & Governance › Federalism & Emergency Provisions

Which one among the following items is not included in the State List of the Constitution of India?

Result
Your answer:  ·  Correct: B

Explanation

The division of powers between the Union and the States is defined in the Seventh Schedule of the Constitution of India through three lists: Union, State, and Concurrent.

  • Public Order (Entry 1), Local Government (Entry 5), and Land (Entry 18) are subjects explicitly mentioned in the State List (List II), giving State Legislatures the primary power to legislate on them.
  • Economic and Social Planning is placed under Entry 20 of the Concurrent List (List III). This means both the Parliament and State Legislatures have the authority to make laws regarding planning, though Union laws prevail in case of conflict.

Therefore, Economic and Social Planning is the only item among the options that is not part of the State List.
