Answer and explanation

Correct answer A

The correct choice is: 7

As of April 2019, India had 7 Union Territories: Andaman & Nicobar Islands, Chandigarh, Dadra & Nagar Haveli, Daman & Diu, Delhi, Lakshadweep and Puducherry.

Hence the answer is 7.

Since then: on 31 October 2019 Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh became UTs (making 9), and on 26 January 2020 Dadra & Nagar Haveli and Daman & Diu were merged, so India now has 8 Union Territories.
