Constitutional provisions related to State formation

"The Constitution of India provides for the formation, reorganization, and dissolution of states, which has played a significant role in shaping India's political landscape since independence."

                     India gained independence in 1947, and since then, the country has undergone significant changes in terms of its political boundaries. The Constitution of India provides the framework for the formation, reorganization, and dissolution of states, which has been used to address the demands of various linguistic and regional groups.

                    The Constitution of India provides for the formation, reorganization, and dissolution of states. Article 1 of the Constitution declares India to be a Union of States, and Article 2 provides for the admission or establishment of new states into the Union. Article 3 provides for the formation of new states by the separation of territory from any existing state or by merging two or more states or parts thereof.

                        The formation, reorganization, and dissolution of states have been used to address the demands of various linguistic and regional groups. One of the most significant reorganizations of states took place in 1956 when states were reorganized on linguistic lines. This led to the creation of states such as Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, and Maharashtra.

                        The Constitution also provides for the establishment of Union territories, which are territories that do not have their own legislative assembly. The Union territories are administered by the President through an administrator appointed by him/her.
