Correct Answer: Indian Federation was the result of an agreement by sovereign units to join it.


Solution : The correct option is the Indian Federation was the result of an agreement by sovereign units to join it.

The statement "Indian federation was the result of an agreement by sovereign units to join it" is an incorrect statement regarding the meaning of 'Union of States' in the Indian context. The Indian federation was created through a Constitution that defines the powers, rights, and relationships between the states and the central government. It is not a result of independent sovereign units coming together by mutual agreement.
