Solution

The correct option is A 1, 3 and 5 only

Explanation:

Federal features of the Indian constitution are:

  • Dual Govt.
  • Distribution of Powers
  • Written Constitution
  • Supremacy of the Constitution
  • Independent judiciary
  • The rigidity of federal provisions in the Constitution

Separation of powers generally denotes a horizontal distribution of the powers between the executive, legislature, and judiciary. It can be employed in any Polity to curb the concentration of power to any organ of the State. Hence, it is not a feature of federalism.

Collective responsibility of the ministers to the legislature is a feature of the parliamentary form of government which can be present in both, unitary and federal systems of government.
