Which of the following reports is considered as a piecemeal effort to provide resilience to the successful working of federal system?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. Sarkaria Commission.
This commission was established in 1983 to examine the relationship and power balance between the central and state governments. While it made many recommendations to strengthen cooperative federalism, its report is considered a piecemeal effort because it didn't propose fundamental structural changes, but rather suggested reforms within the existing constitutional framework. The recommendations aimed to resolve specific issues, such as the role of the Governor and the use of Article 356.
