    India also has 10 Autonomous District Councils (ADC). Which are like State within a State.
    They have their own Government, Legislative Assembly and is led by a Chief Executive Member (CEM). Election is held every 5 year.

    As an Indian, to explain the slightly confusing concept of both Unitary and Federal structure of our government:
    It was done to draw a contrast between the nature of India and some other countries, like USA, UK, and Soviet Union, from where we imbibed some of the ideas for our Constitution.
    In the above mentioned countries, several independent geopolitical units came together to form a Union, the 4 kingdoms of UK, the 13 colonies of America, the Soviet Republics in USSR, etc. And each of these units was equal to each other and largely independent. They had provisions or at least weak ties that could enable them to Secede or break away from the larger Union, like the break up of Soviet Union, the short period of American Civil War, or the presently on going Scottish Independence referendum.
    In India however, this is not the case. We see our country as a single unbreakeable whole, a permanent Union of the People of India (and not states). This Union of people shall divide itself into smaller units (states) for ease of governance only and for no other claims of local autonomy. No territory of India may ever breakaway from the Union. It's punisheable as treason to speak of another separation of India (the horrors of Partition).
    But, such a large population we are, we might not always get along well with our cousins, and tensions will rise, so we prefer to draw lines within our country than across it. That is, we are kinda flexible with our state borders. It's not very easy to carve a new state, but not impossible. However, the Union of India shall always be a single indivisible entity. That's the Federal structure with Unitary features.

    2.There is no post like deupty PM,( Constitution doesn't mention, its not a rule), it's just occasionally to satisfy the coalition partners.Since past 20 yrs India has no deputy PM.
    Of such complicated Nation & its politics,ur explanation in such lucid manner, deserve a applause.

    Basically for all those from Presidential systems, a Ceremonial President is just there as a reserve. The government runs in their name. They are re supposed to be impartial and have no partisan bias (though most are just retired politicians). It’s a leftover feature from a constitutional monarchy where the Monarch is the head of state and is there as a backup/reserve power/monitoring authority/representative of the entire nation and not just a party. Most parliamentary forms of government are either constitutional monarchies (UK, Japan, Netherlands, Spain, Malaysia) or parliamentary republics (India, Pakistan, Germany, Ireland)

    Indian constitution sees States as administrative units rather than devolved powers. Federalism still maintains high degree of centralization both for political and pragmatic reasons (Some Indian States are just too poor to manage certain Departments, Central Govt funds close to 80% of their outlays). Power between States and Centre is dictated by 7th Schedule which maintains 3 separate lists - State, Union and Concurrent. This creates an interesting framework for balancing Political Power. For eg: Policing is in the State List, however Law and Order (aka Public Order) is in Concurrent List. So Central Govt cannot perform day to day policing but can get itself involved in serious degradation of public order or station Centrally Armed Police Force to maintain public order at facilities.

Only that the party or coalition having the majority will choose someone to become PM, they can be anyone qualified to be an MP in either house. If they are already not in the house, they are given six months to be elected to either house. Just to give an example, the Prime Minister before Modi was Manmohan Singh, who was in the Rajya Sabha and not the Lok Sabha.

    India's supposed to be a parliamentary democracy, but in practice acts like an executive dominated democracy, Indian parliament is in practice far weaker than even the US Congress in the presidential USA, the same applies to state legislatures which are even more feeble than the national parliament. Some of this is structural resulting in the extraordinary powers the Indian constitution gave to the executive despite creating a parliamentary republic (for example the ability to create temporary laws called "ordinances" sort of like executive orders in USA), how it doesn't really prevent the executive from cutting down parliamentary sessions, the speaker not being very independent in practice, the way Indian parties function, the legal prevention of MPs going against party line in the parliament, etc. So when a government has a single party majority in the parliament, the parliament (especially the Lok Sabha) turns into a rubber stamp of the executive with very little actual checking of executive power. Theoretically the Rajya Sabha offers some protection against this but in practice there are ways to completely bypass it like randomly designating a bill as a "money bill" or calling a joint session. When factoring all that only the judiciary actually checks the executive, which is why at times when the executive is very strong electorally they end up at loggerheads with the judiciary and speak of expanding parliamentary power (proxy for their power) against the judiciary like in the 70s or what you were seeing just a few months ago.
    Also the balance between the Union and the State is never very clear in practice either, states have gradually gotten more powerful overtime so although at the immediate post-independence period they were weak when compared to the centre and were easily dismissed by it through "presidential rule", today they're pretty powerful entities capable of going against national laws on a number of issues especially those on the concurrent list of the constitution (eg- Tamil Nadu rejecting the education policies of the centre) and are difficult to dismiss.

      Central Govt has its own Central Reserved police forces which it can deploy in any state when it wants. So no, it's not that only state has a police, central govt too has police.. These forces that Central govt cam deploy for internal affairs are called Paramilitary forces.
      Army is only for external.
