Question

Which among the following union territories has its own state legislature?
A. Delhi
B. Daman and Diu
C. Lakshadweep
D. None of the above

Answer 1

Hint: Union territory is an administrative division of the Republic of India. Unlike India, which has its own government, the federal territory is a federal territory directly administered by the central government of India.

Complete step by step answer:
The legislature is a legislative assembly with powers to make laws for political entities such as countries or states. The legislature is an important part of most governments. In the three-power separation model, they often contrast with the administrative and judicial branches of the government. The laws made by the legislature are often referred to as the main legislation. In addition, the legislature can observe and guide governance actions and has the power to modify the relevant budget. The union territories are Andaman and Nicobar Islands, Chandigarh, Dadra and Nagar Haveli, Daman and Diu, National Capital Territory of Delhi, Jammu and Kashmir, Lakshadweep, Ladakh, and Puducherry. Union territories with legislatures, such as Delhi and Puducherry, have their own parliaments and elect judicial assistance. The members of the Legislative Assembly are directly elected from the constituencies of the National Capital Territory of Delhi. It has its own legislative assembly, deputy governor, council of ministers, and chief minister. The current Governor of Delhi is Anil Baijal, and the Prime Minister is Arvind Kejriwal.
So, the correct answer is Option A.

Note: Under the provisions of the Constitution, at independence, the Union territory was either part of India or too small to be a state. Additionally, in 1956, the state reorganization commission recommended creating a separate category for this area, named Union territory.
