Solution

The correct option is C Both 1 and 2
A federal government is one in which powers are divided between the national government and the regional governments by the Constitution itself and both operate in their respective jurisdictions independently. A written constitution specifies the structure, organisation, powers, and functions of both the Central and state governments and prescribes the limits within which they must operate. Thus, it avoids the misunderstandings and disagreements between the two. So both the statements are correct.
