Correct Answer: 97


Solution : The correct option is 97.

There are three types of lists mentioned in the Constitution: the Union List,  the State List, and the Concurrent List. The Union List enumerates subjects on which only the central government has legislative authority. This system was taken from the Canadian government. The Constitutional framers listed 97 subjects under the Union list originally. However, with several amendments, the Union list now consists of 100 subjects. The subjects of national importance are in the Union list.
