A constitution is an organic instrument comprising the whole scheme that provides a roadmap for the functioning of a country. The words and phrases used in the Constitution of India are a foundation that provides structure, organization, and framework for the federal structure of India. The focus of this study is to analyse the use of the words ‘Union’ and ‘Central’ in the Constitution of India and the distinctive applications of the two words in other various places of legislative and administrative spheres of the Governance. This research article criticizes the careless attitude of various elected governments towards the use of the two words since the independence of India. This research article also focuses on exploring the contradictory nature of the words ‘Union’ and ‘Central’ and the damage caused by deliberately using the two words interchangeably, which is entirely against the spirit and intent of the Constitution of India. This study also particularly emphasizes the use of the words ‘Guaranteed by Central Government’ in Indian currency notes while taking into account a proper historical perspective of this issue. The study also puts into the picture the unseen effect that the use of the word ‘Central’ has had on the people of India.
