Question

how were the different states of India organised after independence?
​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Answer: Which states were added to India after independence? Known as the Rajputana under British India, the princely states came together in 1948 to form the United State of Rajasthan. In May 1949, it was renamed United State of Greater Rajasthan and in 1956, the state of Rajasthan was born.

Answer 2

Answer:

At the time of independence in 1947, India consisted of 571 disjointed princely states that were merged together to form 27 states. The grouping of states at the time was done on the basis of political and historical considerations rather than on linguistic or cultural divisions, but this was a temporary arrangement.
