Detailed Solution

Statement (A) is False but statement (R) is True.
Federalism means the distribution of power at various levels of government. Political power sharing occurs by forming a government at the central and local levels. The statement stipulating that governments must disagree with the rules of power sharing is False as governments are supposed to follow the rules of power sharing so that mutual trust can be maintained. Hence, adhering to the rules is the option for developing mutual trust in federalism. A federal government becomes perfect only by two virtues: Mutual cooperation and trust among various organs, and the agreement to exist together.
