Detailed Solution

The given statement is true.
The state government has powers of its own for which it is not answerable to the central government, both the central and state governments are collectively answerable to their citizens. The jurisdiction and powers of the respective tiers of the government are mentioned in the Indian constitution in matters of legislation, taxation, and administration. Therefore their existence and authority are constitutionally guaranteed. The central government cannot pass orders for the state government to do things unlike the unitary system of government wherein the centre passes orders and all the other subordinate units have to follow them.
