Summary
Administrative divisions
India comprises 28 states and 8 union territories . All states and territories, including the three union territories of Jammu and Kashmir , the National Capital Territory of Delhi and Puducherry have elected legislatures and governments patterned on the Westminster system . The other six union territories are directly ruled by the Centre through appointed administrators. In 1956, under the States Reorganisation Act , states were formed on a linguistic basis.[ 1] (See also: Political integration of India .) Since then, this structure has remained largely unchanged. Each state or union territory is further divided into administrative districts .[ 2] The districts in turn are further divided into tehsils and eventually into villages .
