Union Territories are unique features of Indian Constitution. They are spread on the map of India like resins in a cake. They were created and liquidated to meet the exigencies of the time and circumstances. Political expediency followed by administrative convenience was the dominating reason for their continued existence. All the territories have different patterns of administration. Whatever institutions in the name of associating the will of the people with administration were created could not deliver the fruits of self-government or democracy. The Denial of representation to Union Territories in Electoral College for electing the President who wields the power of governance has no sound rationale and basis. The Union Territories are the states in miniature. They are struggling for their full-fledged status. The book presents, in a lucid manner, all the peculiarities of the administrative system of Union Territories. It is a pioneer contribution in the field of knowledge.
