Federalism in Rajyaghar
Governance of both the Union States and Federal Territories is divided between the Central Union Government (federal) and state governments. Article VI of the Constitution specifies the responsibilites of the federal and state governments. At Independence, the Constitution stated that any unprescribed responsibilites would fall under the purview of the state governments but in 1958, the 11th Amendment transfered unprescribed responsibilites from the state to the federal government. Further centralisation of power took place during the Emergency in which the 12th Amendment transfered jurisdiction of the police from state governments to the federal government as part of the nationwide police reform programme. This continual de-devolution of power has resulted in increased support for seperatist movements in the southern Union States of Sangam and Tarkhana.
Article VI of the Constitution outlines the following responsibilites to be prescribed to the state governments:
- Management of transportation and local infrastructure
- Provision of emergency services (excluding the police since 1965)
- Local planning and zoning
- Education outside of the national curriculum
State elections are held every 5 years which, since 1995, have been at the same time as federal elections. Article VI of the Constitution dictates that Union States must have a unicameral legislature and an executive based off of the Northabbey model, in which the First Minister is the leader of the largest party or coalition in the state legislature. Elections for these legislatures are held every 5 years and, sice 1995, have been held concurrently with the federal General Elections.
Federal Districts must also have legislatures and executives but Article VI of the Constitution does not prescribe how they should be made up and for how long their terms should last. As a result, the exact make up of Federal District governments are negotiated in treaties with the Central Union Government and approved by the Monarch. In Bishnupur, the Panditrao (High Priest) serves as both ceremonial head of state and functional head of government with the Council of Priests making up the legislature with no elections. In Kinadica, the Governor serves as ceremonial head of state whilst a directly elected Mayor serves as head of government with the City Council making up the legislature.
In Union States, governance related to lower-level administration is further devolved from state governments to local authorities; the Provincial and Communal Councils. Whilst state governments hold jurisdiction over local authorities, the federal government can request the Monarch to invoke Clause X of Article VI of the Constitution, which grants either the Rajakumar (Union States), Governor (Kinadica), Panditrao (Bishnupur) or an appointed High Commissioner to intervene and suspend the State Government and Legislature.
