Explanation

The Indian federation features a bicameral legislature at the federal level (Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha) and an independent, impartial judiciary. Unlike the US federation, India does not provide equal representation to all states in the Upper House, nor does it allow for double citizenship. These features make the Indian system a unique blend of federal and unitary characteristics.
