Question and options
Under which formally named list in the Seventh Schedule of the Constitution of India is extradition expressly enumerated?
Union List
State List
Concurrent List
Residuary List
Answer and explanation
Extradition is expressly enumerated in Entry 18 of List I, the Union List, so only Parliament can legislate on it. There is no “Residuary List” in the Seventh Schedule: residuary power lies with Parliament under Article 248 and Entry 97 of List I, and extradition is not left to the State or Concurrent Lists.
