India is a federal parliamentary republic comprised of two types of major entities &#8211; States and Union Territories (UTs). There are 28 States and 8 Union Territories in India. The division is mainly due to administrative reasons and to meet the diverse needs of specific regions.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">States are self-governing entities with their own elected governments. They are responsible for administration within defined geographical boundaries and exercise autonomy in making decisions regarding matters of health, law, education, etc. The highest office in a State is held by the Chief Minister. On the other hand, Union Territories refer to the regions whose administration is controlled by the central government of India. UTs have less autonomy than states and are looked after by the Lieutenant Governor or Administrator appointed by the President of India.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Each State and UT has its capital that acts as the centre from which power is dispersed into other parts.
