Correct answer is A

A quasi-federal structure typically refers to a system of government that incorporates elements of both federalism and unitarism. The primary purpose of a quasi-federal structure is to allow the central or federal government to coordinate and implement national-level programs and policies effectively. While there may be regional or state governments with certain powers and responsibilities, the central authority retains the ability to address issues of national importance, such as defence, foreign affairs, and overarching economic policies.
