India is divided into twenty-eight states and seven union territories (UTs). States have their own government, whereas union territories are administered by the Central government. As per the Constitution of India, the central government can also empower a union territory with a legislature. As of 2008[update], two union territories, the National Capital Territory of Delhi and Puducherry have their own legislatures.
The state and union territory capitals are sorted according to the administrative, legislative and judicial capitals.
