▪︎UNION and ITS TERRITORIES

📌 ARTICLE 2

🔸️ Article 2 empowers the Parliament to ‘admit into the Union of India, or establish, new states on such terms and conditions as it thinks fit’.

🔸️ Thus, Article 2 grants two powers to the Parliament: (a) the power to admit into the Union of India new states; and (b) the power to establish new states.

🔸️ The first refers to the admission of
states which are already in existence, while the second refers to the establishment of states which were not in existence before.
