Detailed Solution

It is not a function of the national or central government to cancel the Odisha state board exams for Class 8 for all government schools in the state is a decision that is to be made by the respective State government, that is, the Odisha government. Education comes under the Concurrent List, which means the Centre and the State governments can make decisions regarding education matters. But, the findings of the Central Government can help the country maintain peaceful relations with Russia. This is because subjects of national importance, like defence, fall under the Union List. Similarly, matters like introducing new 2000 rupee notes and introducing a new train between Delhi and Agra are under the central government's jurisdiction as only the Centre has the power to regulate which denominations of notes to circulate and the routes of trains. Currency and Railways fall under the Union List.
