Solution

The correct option is C 73rd
The Indian Constitution originally made provisions for a two-tier system of government. This is a key feature of federal setup. The first tier was the Union government. The second tier was formed by the state governments representing individual states. A third tier in the form of Panchayati Raj was established in all the states with the 73rd Constitutional Amendment Act of 1992. All three tiers of the federation enjoy separate jurisdiction.
