UPSC 2000: Which one of the following is not a feature of the Government of India Act of 1935?
(a)Diarchy at the Centre as well as in the provinces
(b)A bicameral legislature
(c)Provincial autonomy
(d)An All-India Federation
Attempt This Question
Not attemptedCorrect Answer: (a) Diarchy at the Centre as well as in the provinces
The 1935 Act abolished diarchy in the Provinces but introduced it at the Centre; thus diarchy did NOT exist ‘at the Centre as well as in the provinces’, making statement (a) NOT a feature and therefore the correct answer. The Act did provide for a bicameral federal legislature, provincial autonomy, and an All-India Federation, so options (b), (c), (d) describe actual features.
