Which one of the following statements is correct as per the Constitution of India?
(a) Inter-State trade and commerce is a State subject under the State List. · (b) Inter-State migration is a State subject under the State List. · (c) Inter-State quarantine is a Union subject under the Union List. · (d) Corporation tax is a State subject under the State List.
उत्तर और व्याख्या · explanation in English
Answer: (c) अंतरराज्यीय संगरोध संघ सूची के अधीन एक संघ विषय है ।
Entry 81 of the Union List (List I) in the Seventh Schedule reads 'Inter-State migration; inter-State quarantine', so quarantine between States is a Union subject. The other three options wrongly place Union List subjects in the State List.
- ✓ (c) Inter-State quarantine appears in entry 81 of the Union List.
- ✗ (b) Inter-State migration sits in the very same Union List entry 81, so it is not a State subject.
- ✗ (a) Inter-State trade and commerce is entry 42 of the Union List.
- ✗ (d) Corporation tax is entry 85 of the Union List.
Remember · Union List: entry 42 inter-State trade and commerce; entry 81 inter-State migration and quarantine; entry 85 corporation tax.
