Bifurcation of Jammu & Kashmir: How the Map of India has Changed Since 1951

A look at the political map of India over the last seven decades would give an appearance of it being in a constant state of flux. It isn't only that the state boundaries have been redrawn over and over again but India's international borders have also extended by a bit (Goa, Sikkim, Puducherry). The political map of India is being redrawn again with the bifurcation of the state of Jammu & Kashmir into two Union Territories - Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh. From hundreds of princely states and 17 provinces before partition, to 14 states and 6 Union Territories following the Reorganisation of States in 1956 to 29 states and 7 union territories, before the bifurcation of Jammu & Kashmir to 28 states and 9 union territories after it. We trace the evolution of the political map of India.
