State List:

The seventh schedule under Article 246 of the constitution deals with the division of powers between the union and the states.
It contains three lists: Union List, State List and Concurrent List.
The union list details the subjects on which Parliament may make laws while the state list details those under the purview of state legislatures.
The concurrent list, on the other hand, has subjects in which both Parliament and state legislatures have jurisdiction. However, the Constitution provides federal supremacy to Parliament on concurrent list items in case of a conflict.
The State List is a list of 61 (Originally 66) items in the Schedule Seven to the Constitution of India.
The respective state governments have exclusive power to legislate on matters relating to these items.
‘Relief of the disabled and unemployable’ comes under the state list of the seventh schedule.
