The subject of federalism in any country covers a vast area, embracing legislative, executive and judicial powers, as distributed between the federal union and its units. Distribution of legislative power is only one branch of the subject; and in that branch, the topic of concurrent legislative power is only a sub-branch (so to say). The Concurrent List contains subjects of common interest to both the Union and the states, ensuring collaboration and coordination between them. If there is any conflict between a Union and State law on a Concurrent List subject, the Union law prevails (as per Article 254 of the Constitution). Concurrent List (List III) The Concurrent List contains subjects on which both Parliament and state legislatures can make laws. In case of a conflict, the Central law prevails. It includes 52 subjects, focusing on areas requiring cooperative federalism such as education, forests, and labor welfare.
