Hindu Short notes
A reality check on cooperative federalism
- 1974 - SC commented that constitution envisages cooperative federalism structure
- In relation to the article 356 - president’s rule, federalism is far more mature
- In 1994 - Sr Bombai vs UOI, SC placed limitations on Article 356 but centre continues to yield superior legislative powers including residuary and legislative precedence
- What is ideal cooperative federalism
— Recent ruling of govt of NCT Vs UOI(Lieutinent governor) - tilted the balance of executive power in favour of Govt of NCT
— Taxation power - In GST states forgone some taxation powers but have power to levy taxes through panchayats and municipalities so in an anamolous situation of a transition being taxed under GST and local local law is yet to be tested in court
— centre-state relationship - sharing of taxes : southern states vocal about false positives and negatives from tax sharing and this subject is largely to the recommendations of FC and action by parliament But under article 269A(1) GST council has the power to make recommendations in relation to sharing of taxes from inter-state trade. But article 270(1A) and 270(2)provides that taxes levied under get will be shared in a manner prescribed under article 270(2) which takes us to FC.
