Tripathi, Sudhanshu creator text xu| 2008 continuing ng p.61-75. Although the Indian Constitution reflects all essential features of a federation, particularly distribution of powers between the Union and the states, yet there is a strong Central bias due to various provisions and also due to the institution of Governor as obtained in the Constitution of India. over the years this institution was very much misused by the Central governments to serve their vested interests. The Governors themselves sold to the wishes of political masters at the Centre causing abysmal fall of their constitutional authority. Their partisan and selfish acts have reduced the Indian federalism into a mockery of state autonomy. - Reproduced.
