Solution

An example of a Quasi-Federal State is India.

India's political system has federal features, such as the division of powers between the central and state governments, but it also contains several unitary features that strengthen the central government. For example, the central government has the power to reorganize state boundaries, declare emergencies, and override state laws, making India's system a blend of federalism and centralization, or a quasi-federal structure.
