The Indian Constitution, while not mentioning the word "press", provides for "the right to freedom of speech and expression" (Article 19(1) a).

But under art, 19 (1)a even though it is directly written it has to be accepted as freedom of press which are resemble with freedom of speech and expression.

The phrase, "freedom of press" has not been used in Article 19, but freedom of expression includes freedom of press

hi quassi federal means indian constitution is union but having strong federal features that's y we call it quassi federal...

gurwinderkoti said on February 22nd, 2012

quasi or semi federal structure is due to more power given to center as compared to states like center has right to take over control of states in case of emergency, center has more control over country's finances so states are dependent on center for there finances...governor is appointed by center as a representative of center in states which can takeover control of states as demanded by situation....states cant have there different constitution....nor they can amend it...some other factors like appointed of ias IPS officers by center etc. cause the indian constitution to be quasi federal..

Explaination for ques no. 2

Except Untouchability all other social evils are prohibited by making laws and not by constitutional amendmends. Only untouchan\bility is embraced in the constitution in article 17.

Hope this helps.
