The President can demand information from the Prime Minister regarding the working of the administration. The Council of Ministers can discuss any issue with the President only through the Prime Minister.
  • Natural equality implies that all men are born free and equal and are endowed with equal gifts and talents. It also means that the state should try to reduce inequality rather than perpetuate it.

  • Friendly relations with other countries.
  • Contempt of court.
  • Morality and decency.

  • During the law making process, members of the legislature get an opportunity to deliberate on the policy direction of the executive and the ways in which policies are implemented.
  • Apart from deliberating on bills, control may also be exercised during the general discussions in the House. The members of the Parliament can ask the ministers any questions (during Question Hour) regarding the functioning of the administration. The ministers are to give a satisfactory reply to all these questions.
  • The most powerful weapon that enables the Parliament to ensure executive accountability is the no-confidence motion.
  • The members of the Parliament by introducing ‘Adjournment Motion’ can invite the attention of the government to a serious problem or event.

Composition of the Upper House (Legislative Council): Election:  The members of the Legislative Council are not elected directly by the voters. They are elected in the following ways:

  • One-third of the members of the Council are elected by the State Legislative Assembly. These persons are not to be the members of the House.
  • One-third of the members are elected by the local bodies namely Corporations, Municipalities, Zila Parishads, Panchayats, etc.
  • One-twelfth of the members are elected by the university graduates of at least 3 years of standing.

Powers and Functions of the Legislative Council:

  • Legislative Powers: Any non-money Bill which can be introduced in the Legislative Assembly can also be introduced in the Legislative Council. Any Ordinary Bill on the subjects mentioned in the State List and Concurrent List can be introduced in the Legislative Council. After the Bill is passed by the Legislative Council it is sent to the Government for his assent unless it is passed by the Legislative Assembly. The Legislative Council can delay a non-Money bill for 4 months.
  • Financial Powers: In financial matters, the Legislative Council does not enjoy many powers. Money Bills cannot be introduced in this chamber. The Money Bill can only be introduced in the Legislative Assembly and after it is passed by it, it is sent to the Legislative Council and the Council can delay it only for 14 days. It may reject the bill or may not take any action over it for 14 days and in both cases, the bill is considered as passed by both the Houses.
  • Control over the Executive: The Legislative Council does not exercise much control over the executive. Some ministers are of course taken from the Council.

More than this it does not have any control over the Council of Ministers.
  • Electoral Functions: The Legislative Council elects its Chairman and Deputy Chairman. The Chairman is responsible for running smoothly the business of the House. In his absence, the Deputy Chairman performs his duty. The Legislative Council has no right to take part in the election of the President of India, as the Legislative Assembly.
  • Lack of Unanimity of Fundamentals: The scholars of Political Science do not hold unanimous opinions regarding the theories, subject-matter and conclusions of Political Science.
  • Impossibility of subject-matter: Like Physical Sciences, Political Science has neither laboratory nor object for experiments. Experiments are not possible in Political Science like those of Physical Sciences.
  • Prediction is difficult: The claim of Political Science as a Science is also ruled out on the ground that prediction is difficult in this subject. It cannot predict the coming events. In all other Physical Sciences prediction is possible.
  • Cause-effect relationship not clear: In Political Science relationship between cause and effect cannot be established.

  • The cartoonist describes the new Iraqi Constitution as the castle of cards because it is being prepared by pro-US.

  • Indian Constitution is not imposed on Indians, but it was framed from among different shades of opinion after long discussions and debates.
  • It was adopted by people willfully.
  • It is a living document to be amended from time to time at par aspirations of people.

Class 11 Pol Sc Sample Paper Solution Section E

Nationalism is a desire for having a separate region for free and independent development of one’s culture, race, language, etc. Merits of Nationalism: 

  • Nationalism makes an individual feel that the nation is above all and raises the standard of thinking and behaving of individuals about the nation.
  • It asserts independent living and thinking among the citizens of the country.
  • It creates a sense to make the country free from colonial rule or from those who rule over the nation from outside (foreigners, etc.).
  • It gives an opportunity to each nation for the development of its culture and develops a sense of pride towards the culture and heritage of a nation.
  • It makes a country self-sufficient to meet the basic necessities of a nation during a crisis.
  • It creates healthy rivals at the international level to get a better standard of living, social life, etc.

Demerits of nationalism: 

  • Nationalism has resulted in World War I and II due to the greed of people to expand their own nationalism beyond territories.
  • In nationalism, each fact is exaggerated, i.e. national achievements are given wide publicity to pose a major problem.
  • Nationalism misuses the authority which creates a larger gap between the rich and the poor by making the rich richer and the poor poorer.
  • Nationalism can be used against slave countries by capitalist countries. Hence, colonialism can never come to an end.
  • The one who thinks freedom is to do whatever one likes to do is a wrong opinion. So the authority imposes restrictions which are a number of times undesirable.
  • On the contrary, the basic idea is that liberty and authority go hand-in-hand because authority not only guarantees the freedom but for equal opportunities also.
  • Both authority and liberty must remain within their limits for the existence of both the state and individuals.
  • If one crosses the limits, one is bound to destroy the purpose for which it was being maintained.
  • Excess of liberty may destroy authority and concentration of authority can abolish the existence of liberty.
  • Equality before law: It means there can be no discrimination between one citizen and another on the basis of caste, class, creed, sex or any of them. Article 14 of the Constitution of India guarantees all person equality before the law and equal protection of law within the territory of India. There can be no discrimination against the citizens.
  • For the success of democracy, all the citizens should have an equal right to enjoy universal adult suffrage.
  • Every individual must have the right to be elected as a representative also to contest elections.
  • The citizens must enjoy the right to hold public offices also without any. discrimination except for qualification.
  • Equality of Opportunity: The term “equal opportunities for all” means that every human being should get the opportunity to progress without any discrimination. The citizens of India have been granted six Fundamental Rights. One of them is: “The Right to Equality”. This right has five parts, the third part of this right deals with equality of opportunity. According to this right, every individual gets an equal opportunity to hold the public office or to get the government service. Accordingly, the state will treat everyone equally without the consideration of religion, caste, sex or language.
  • Generous and more extensive use of Article 258 which empowers central government to give power to state governments.
  • Whenever the Union proposes to undertake legislation from the concurrent list, prior consultations should be carried out with state governments collectively.
  • The Planning Com mission and the National Development Council should be reformed so that they consult and involve the states as equal participants in development.
  • Before deploying para-military forces in disturbed areas, the concerned state government should be consulted.
  • Bills reserved for President’s consideration should be disposed of within four months.
  • Article 356 should be used sparingly and only when all alternatives fail.
  • Safeguards should be incorporated in Article 356 so that it is not used frequently.
  • National Development Council (NDC) should be renamed as the National Economic Development Council (NEDC). It should emerge as the highest inter-governmental body for giving directions at the political level.
  • An expert committee should be constituted to review from time to time in consultation with the states, the operational feasibility of the scope for levying taxes and duties under Article 269. (Taxes collected by a union and given to states).
  • An expert committee with representatives from states should be appointed to recommend reforms in taxation.
  • The state Chief Minister should be consulted before the appointment of a Governor.
  • Residuary powers other than taxation should be placed on the concurrent list.
  • Inter-state River Water Disputes Act should be amended to create a tribunal to solve water-sharing problems within one year of the receipt of such a complaint.
  • The Inter-state council should have an independent secretariat.

 The factors can be studied in three divisions:

  • The effects of the Act of 1935: Right from 1858, when the Indian administration was transferred to the British Parliament, the tendency to decentralization was increasing for administrative conveniences. New provinces were formed, and they were given more powers. Gradually, the provinces became administrative units with increasingly more self-governing powers. The Act of 1919 initiated the selfGovernment in the provinces. The Act of 1935 made these provinces fully autonomous. During this time, eleven provinces had fully autonomous and responsible governments.
  • The Problems of the Princely States: India was divided into two parts—The Princely States and British India. The British Indian provinces were united under a single administration at the Centre, but about 600 Princely States were spread over India as separate autonomous entities. When the British left India, their suzerain power over the princely states ended and these states were declared independent. These states had the freedom to merge with India or Pakistan or to remain separate and independent. The national leaders faced the herculean task of uniting the British Indian Provinces with their uniform nature and the princely states with their diversity in administration, size and geographical, political and economic conditions. This was not possible in the unitary centralized form of Government.
  • Compulsions due to Indian Conditions: India is a vast country with people having diversity in religion, language, food, living conditions, dress, customs, and manners, etc. Actually, Indian culture shows unity in diversity. This diversity is the unique characteristic of Indians giving an opportunity to the development of their personality. So it was realised that the federal form of Government would help the growth of this basic Indian characteristic. Secondly, the vastness of the country encouraged the tendency towards federalism because it was not possible to rule the country efficiently from one Centre.
  • Secularism promotes religious freedom and equality. But sometimes argued to be anti-religions, i.e. to undermine some forms of religious identity to be dogmatic, violent, exclusivist and those to faster hatred of other religions.
  • Secularism is sometimes linked to Christianity, unsuited to Indian conditions. India evolved a variant of secularism not just an implant from the west on Indian soil. Hence, secularism has booth western and non-western origins and the idea of peaceful coexistence of different religious communities has been important.
  • Secularism is charged with minorities but it is to treat them with some respect and dignity with which all others are being treated.
  • Secularism is criticised to be coercive and to interfere excessively with religions freedom. Though secularism permits state-supported religions reform it should not be equated false but the mere fact that secular parties utilise vote banks is not troublesome. All parties do so in relation to some social group.
  • Secularism is criticised to be an impossible project to be far from pursuing an impossible objective India secularism mirrors the future of the world.

The scope of Political Theory is as discussed ahead:

  • State and Government are the Main Subjects of Political Theory:  State is the main subject of political science and theory because the machinery of political science revolves around the State. In the sphere of political theory, we study the nature and size of the existing State and the practicability of the fundamental principle of the present government. But the nature of the State and government have changed with time. Now, their present nature is different from the past. Political theorists study the reasons for the origin of State and its process of development.
  • Study of Power:  Political theory also includes the study of power. In other words, “Political theory is the study of power process”. Power has many forms — political, economic and social power, individual and public power, national and international power, etc.
  • Wider Scope of the Subject:  The study of the political theory consists of study in different fields i.e., formal, informal, economy, social, psychological, geographical, ethical, political, religious and cultural. These factors influence the political system. In political theory, we study society, state, and international politics.
  • Study of Political Ideology:  Political theorists also study political ideologies. Various ideologies have been prevalent in the society from Plato to nowadays. For example, Idealism, Individualism, Marxism, Gandhism, Socialism, Utilitarianism, etc.
  • Study of Associations and Institutions:  Another feature of political theory is that it studies the various organizations, associations, and institutions established in the State.
