How have powers and functions of the Central and State Governments been divided by the Constitution?

The Indian Constitution gives the division of power in the form of three lists, known as Union List, State List, and Concurrent List. The Union List includes subjects such as taxes, defense, and foreign affairs. On these subjects, the central government makes the laws. The State List includes subjects such as education and health. It is the exclusive responsibility of the state government to take care of these subjects. In the last comes the Concurrent List which contains subjects such as forests and agriculture. On these subjects, the Centre and the States have joint responsibility.
