This is a list of proposed states and territories of India, in addition to the existing twenty nine states and seven union territories.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=First Schedule of the Constitution of India )〕 The admission or creation of new states and territories is a power reserved solely for the Parliament of India and the President of India by his seal, which can do so by admitting new states, separating territory from an existing state or by merging two or more states or parts thereof.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Articles 2 and 3 of the Constitution of India )〕 ==History== Before independence, most of India was divided into British-administered provinces and nominally autonomous princely states, which were governed with British advice. After the partition of India, some of these administrative divisions became part of the Dominion of Pakistan, whilst the remaining states and provinces formed the Dominion of India. The colonial system of administration continued until 1956 when the States Reorganisation Act abolished the provinces and princely states in favour of new states which were based on language and ethnicity. Several new states and union territories have been created out of existing states since 1956. The Bombay Reorganisation Act split Bombay State into the linguistic states of Gujarat and Maharashtra on 1 May 1960.〔J.C. Aggarwal and S.P. Agrawal, editors, ''Uttarakhand: Past, Present, and Future'' (New Delhi: Concept Publishing, 1995), p89-90〕 Nagaland was created on 1 December 1963.〔(Nagaland History & Geography-Source ) india.gov.in〕 The Punjab Reorganisation Act of 1966 created a new Hindi-speaking state of Haryana from the southern districts of Punjab state,〔(The Punjab Reorganisation Act 1966 )〕 transferred the northern districts of Punjab to Himachal Pradesh, and designated a union territory around Chandigarh, the shared capital of Punjab and Haryana. Statehood was conferred upon Himachal Pradesh on 25 January 1971,〔(Statehood Himachal Pradesh )〕 and Manipur, Meghalaya and Tripura.〔(Snapshot of North Eastern States )〕 The Kingdom of Sikkim joined the Indian Union as a state on 26 April 1975.〔(Sikkim joins Indian Union )〕 In 1987, Arunachal Pradesh and Mizoram became states on 20 February, followed by Goa on 30 May, while Goa's northern exclaves of Daman and Diu became a separate union territory.〔(Goa Chronology )〕 Three new states were created in November 2000: Chhattisgarh (1 November) was created out of eastern Madhya Pradesh; Uttaranchal (9 November), which was renamed Uttarakhand in 2007, was created out of the mountainous districts of northwest Uttar Pradesh; and Jharkhand (15 November) was created out of the southern districts of Bihar. On 2 June 2014, Telangana was separated from Andhra Pradesh as a new state. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of proposed states and territories of India」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
