Detailed Solution

The given statement is false.
A federation does not have one level government. In a federal form of government, power is vertically divided at various levels of government. Therefore, in a federation, at least two levels of government are present. One government is at the union level which is the Central government with authority over matters of national interest and the other one is at the sub-unit level such as provinces or states. The distribution of powers is done constitutionally so that there is a clear demarcation of power among the Central and the State governments.
