Answer 2

Answer:

On the basis of culture, ethnicity sates like Nagaland, Uttarakhand and Jharkhand are created.

Explanation:

• Several old Indian states had their borders altered in 1947 in order to make way for new ones. To guarantee that speakers of the same language resided in the same state, this was done.
