Correct Answer - Option 3 : Price Control

In respect of matters on which both the Parliament and the state legislatures have the power of legislation (i.e., the subjects enumerated in the Concurrent List), the executive power rests with the states except when a Constitutional provision or a parliamentary law specifically confers it on the Centre.

Constitution confers executive power of a subject in the Concurrent List to the State Government.

Union List:

  • The Union List is a list of 100 (Originally 97) numbered items as provided in the Seventh Schedule to the Constitution of India. The Union Government or the Parliament of India has exclusive power to legislate on matters relating to these items.
  • Post and Telegraph, Defence and Banking

State List:

  • The State List is a list of 61 (Originally 66) items in the Schedule Seven to the Constitution of India.  The respective state governments have exclusive power to legislate on matters relating to these items.
  • Price Control comes under State List.

Concurrent List:

  • There are 52 (Originally 47) items currently on the list: This includes items that are under the joint domain of the Union as well as the respective States. However, given that there can be conflict when it comes to laws passed by Parliament and state legislatures on the same subject, the Constitution provides for a central law to override state law.
