Create 16 more states
by Riva Philip on Jan 10, 2008 06:37 AM

UPA Government is considering implementing the recommendation of Second State Reorganization Commission.

The Government seriously thinking on creating new states like Purvanchal, Awadh, Vidharbha, Ielengana, Goorkhaland, etc.

I am suggesting the creation of following states:

1. Delhi / Indraprastham (excluding New Delhi Municipal Corporation from present National Capital Territory. New Delhi can be a seperate NCT)

2. Pondicherry (Pondicherry district in Pondicherry UT plus some villages in Villupuram and Cuddallore districts of Tamil Nadu. Karaikal, Mahe, and Yanam can be declared as seperate UTs)

3. Andaman & Nicobar Islands

4. Vidharbha (from Maharashtra with Nagpur as capital)

5. Telengana (from Andhra Pradesh with Hyderabad as capital. Vishakapatanam can be the new capital of Andhra state)

6. Central Travancore (from Kerala with Alapuzha or Kottayam as capital)

7. Kashmir (from Jammu & Kashmir with Srinagar as capital)

8. Dogra Pradesh / Jammu (from Jammu & Kashmir with Jammu as capital)

9. Ladakh (from Jammu & Kashmir with Leh as capital)

10. Bodoland (from Assam with Kokrajhar as capital)

11. Goorkhaland (from West Bengal with Dargeeling as capital)

12. Kamtapur (from northern parts of West Bengal with Siliguri as capital)

13. Bundelkhand (from parts of southern UP and northern MP with Jhansi as capital)

14. Purvanchal (from Eastern UP with Varanasi as capital)

15. Awadh (from Central UP with Lucknow as capital)
