Question

why union territories are ruled by central government? ​

Answer 1

A union territory is a type of administrative division in the Republic of India, the union territory are ruled directly by the union Government. Unlike states, which have their own elected Government.

We can see the history of union territory at the time of independence , they were not the part of India or they were too small to be made into a state as per the provision of the constitution.

It was observed that these are economically unbalanced, financially weak and administratively and politically unstable. These territories. Can't survive as separate administrative unit without departing heavily on the union Government. Thus the union territory were formed and it is controlled by central government.
