From which country was the idea of concurrent list borrowed in India?
  1. a.Japan

Answer: (C) Australia

The Concurrent List was borrowed from the Constitution of Australia, along with freedom of trade, commerce and intercourse and the joint sitting of the two Houses. The USA gave judicial review and the Bill of Rights, Japan the 'procedure established by law'; China is not a source. The same question repeat of Q23.
