All three pairs listed are correctly matched according to the Seventh Schedule of the Constitution of India, which distributes legislative powers between the Union and States through the Union List, State List, and Concurrent List.
– The Seventh Schedule contains three lists: Union List (subjects on which Parliament can legislate), State List (subjects on which State Legislatures can legislate), and Concurrent List (subjects on which both can legislate).
– Public health and sanitation is explicitly mentioned in the State List.
– Citizenship, naturalisation, and aliens are exclusively under the Union List.
– Legal, medical, and other professions are listed in the Concurrent List, allowing both the Parliament and State Legislatures to legislate on these matters.
Entry 6 of the State List deals with “Public health and sanitation; hospitals and dispensaries.” Entry 17 of the Union List covers “Citizenship, naturalisation and aliens.” Entry 26 of the Concurrent List covers “Legal, medical and other professions.”
