Andaman Nicobar Archipelago :- Has 500+ Small Islands, some prone to wild animals & some are inhabited. Lies on the Bay of Bengal. The economy of Islands is so far so good. It receives a million tourists from all over the world, annually. Home to several indigenous tribes like Jarawa, Sentinalese, Nicobari & Shompen. Leaving Sentinalese & Jarawa behind Shompens & Nicobaris (Oalchoo) have been civilized modernly.

Lakshadweep Archipelago :- Capital is Kavaratti, which itself is an Island. A group of tiny islands combined in Arabian Sea off Malabar Coast in India. Lakshadweep receives heavy rainfall biennially. Talking about economy, Lakshadweep mainly depends on Sea businesses. Dealing with fishes, a meagre percentage of grains.
