      Apart from the discussion on Article 131, explain various clauses of the article and their importance in the proper working of federalism in India.
      The discussion on the A 131 needs more content.
      Give some space between your content and subheadings.
      Write clearly.
      The overall direction and the theme of the answer is fine.
      Its just more content is needed in the main body.

      The part where you briefly discussed the federal structure of the constitution needs more content and depth.
      Explain various clauses of the article and their importance in the proper working of federalism in India.
      The rest of the answer is fine and well explained.
      The discussion on article 131 is perfectly fine and it is deep as well.
      Good structure all in all.
      Points are decent in the 2nd part of the answer.
      Good conclusion

      In the 1st part of the answer, before explaining 131, explain various clauses of the article and their importance in the proper working of federalism in India.
      The rest of the answer is fine.
      But work on your presentation skills.
      The content is exhaustive and well discussed in the main body.
      The basic features of the A 131 is decently handled.

      Points 1 and 2 and 3 and 8 respectively are of the same nature in the 1st part of your answer.
      Avoid duplication of points having the same nature of discussion.
      The overall structure and the direction of the answer is fine.
      Good content overall.
      But before discussing A 131, do mention other imp provisions for federalism in the Indian constitution.
      Decent conclusion.
      Underline imp stuff in your answers

      You are writing very big points without giving a proper break there.
      Avoid it otherwise your good points will turn into bad ones.
      Also, stop using your content discussion as a subheading. Subheadings should be written separately and the points/statements should be separate.
      Very good first part of the answer.
      The second part is also approached in a lucid manner.
      But try to underline your important points.
      Very good conclusion.
