Solution

The correct option is D S is true but C is false.
Our constitution is federal in its form, but it is unitary in its spirit.

In a completely federal system, the powers are shared between different tiers of government of the country. The constituent units of the country are free to leave the nation if they wish to do so.

Under a completely unitary form of government, there is only one tier of government. Our constitution has both federal and unitary features. We have governments at three different levels, one at the centre, one at the state level, and others at villages or muncipal bodies. However, there is a single constitutional framework and none of the states are free to leave India to form their own country.
