Assertion (A): The states of the United States have their own constitutions, whereas the states of India do not have separate constitutions of their own.
Reason (R): The United States Constitution has a rigid amendment procedure, whereas the Indian Constitution combines rigid and flexible elements.

The comparatively more demanding American amendment procedure is a separate matter from whether states possess their own constitutions.
