+1 vote
208 views

A union territory is a type of administrative section which is directly by by the Union Government (Central Government) whereas states have their own elected governments.

India has 29 States and 7 union territory which includes Delhi however its always debatable if we should consider Delhi as state or union territory. Here I am keeping Delhi as Union territory.
