 A Union Territory is a sub-national administrative division of India, in the federal framework of governance. Unlike the states of India, which have their own elected governments, union territories are ruled directly by the federal central government; the President of India appoints an Administrator or Lieutenant-Governor for each territory.[1] As of 2006[update], there are seven union territories.[2]. Delhi, the capital of India, the then Union territory of Delhi, and Pondicherry have been given partial statehood, with their own elected legislative assemblies and the executive councils of ministers, but their powers are limited; certain legislation must be reserved for the "consideration and assent" of the President of India.[1] The following are the current union territories of India[2]
