1) @DonCoreleone
Governor also takes the same oath to protect,preserve n defend the Constitution n Law

2)No separate oath for PM/CM and Speaker

@all
Can someone clarify on PM/CM's oath.....I might b wrong ...Thanks

2nd statement thoda vague hai

no separate oath in the sense that oath for all the ministers of the union is same

same goes 4 states
(separate for ministers of union and states)

and speaker ke liye koi oth nahi h constituion mein

wo pahle MP ke roop me oath le chuka hota hai

waise in sabke oath ek dusre se alag hote hain...

Central legislation made on state subject during National Emergency become inoperative 6 months after the emergency ceases to operate

However, a legislation (state/central) made during Emergency to the content of inconsistency with Article 19 become inoperative as soon as emergency ceases to operate

I'm sorry. Thanks for pointing it out @MD47

President alone takes oath to preserve, protect & defend the Constitution and the law

President and Governors take oath to preserve, protect & defend the Constitution and the law

14th finance commision has proposed new horizontal formula for distribution of the state's share in divisible pool among the states.

which includes population and forest cover

fiscal discipline variable is no longer taken into account. pahle ye bhi liya jata tha.
pahle forest cover nahi liya jata tha

Contribution by @Meredith
Here are some nuances in polity that might escape one's notice and as has been seen in the past ,upsc seems to have great fondness for;
1. The constitution has not debarred the retiring election commissioners from further appointment by the govt
2. Though the members of SPSC are appointed by the governer they can be removed only by the president
3. Pensions only and not the salaries of high court judges are charged on the CFI
4. The attorney general is not debarred from private legal practice
5. The estimates committee is comprised entirely of lok sabha members
6. There is only one ground mentioned in the constitution for the impeachment of the president and that is 'violation of the constitution'
7. The president can pardon death sentences but the governer cannot. However the governer can suspend remit or commute a death sentance
These are just a few i can think of please feel free to add to the above

Correction in point no 3

Salaries & Pension (of HC Judges) both are charged on CFI
