‘Advantages and disadvantages’ of union territory in India:

Advantages:  

• The union territories have lower taxes as compared to the states.  

• They are directly under the ‘control of the Central government’.  

Disadvantages:

• Union Territories are administrative units that enjoy very ‘little power’ and are controlled by the Union government.  

• All powers rest with Union government.  

• They do have any legislative assembly and there is only a Lieutenant Governor, who manages the administration of the territory with their chief secretary.
