The constitutional power to create new states and union territories in India is solely reserved with the Parliament of India, which can do so by announcing new states/union territories, separating territory from an existing state or merging two or more states/union territories or parts of them.[1] As of 2024[update], there are 28 states and eight union territories in India.[2]
There have been demands to create several new states and union territories.[3] However, demanding a separate state from the administration of Indian union is punishable under secession law in India.[4]
