Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
In both Belgium and India, the central government has decided to share its power with its constituent units in order to accommodate the vast diversity. This is a feature of the "holding together federation". In contrast to this, the coming together federation is formed by the pooling of sovereignty by several small and independent units to form a larger unit. In Belgium and India, constituent units can have special and unequal powers, which isn't the case with coming together federations. On similar lines, the central government is more powerful in these countries.
So, both Belgium and India are examples of holding together federation.
