Explanation
★Correct matching: cooperative federalism with Granville Austin, bargaining federalism with Morris Jones, competitive federalism with the NITI Aayog, and the quasi-federal description with K.C. Wheare.
★Cooperative federalism is attributed to Granville Austin, who highlighted negotiation and compromise between levels of government in India.
★Bargaining federalism is associated with Morris Jones, who emphasised the give and take between the centre and the states.
★Competitive federalism is promoted by the NITI Aayog, which encourages competition among states on economic growth and ease of doing business.
★The quasi-federal description was coined by K.C. Wheare, who saw India as having both federal and unitary features.
★These scholars and bodies capture different shades of how Indian federalism works.
★For NET, link competitive federalism with the NITI Aayog and quasi-federal with K.C. Wheare.
