Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

Option 1 -> Post and Telegraph (Union List), Banking (Union List), and Education (Concurrent List) are NOT in the State List.

Option 2, 3 & 4 -> Incorrect because Trade and Commerce within the state IS included in the State List.


Hence, Option 1: (A), (B) and (C) only -> Post and Telegraph and Banking are Union List subjects (exclusive to Central Government), while Education is in the Concurrent List (moved from State List by 42nd Amendment, 1976). Trade and Commerce within the state remains in the State List as per the Seventh Schedule of the Indian Constitution -> correct
