Detailed Solution

India is a federal country. Federalism is the separation of powers between the federal government and the states. The Constitution of India defines federalism as part of the basic structure of India. The basic structure means the important features that define the nation and strengthen it in one way or the other.
The Parliament of India can not change the basic structure of the Indian Constitution under any circumstance.
Thus, the Assertion is true, but the Reason is false.
