Which boundaries does the map of India use?

India’s official boundaries, as the Government of India shows them: all of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh, and Arunachal Pradesh. A note on the map says so.

Do the small ones get names?

Yes. Where there is no room inside, the name is set outside with a thin line to it, so none is left off; A3 paper gives them more room.

Is there a worksheet version?

Yes — choose the numbered style: the states and union territories are numbered and pupils write each name and capital, with the answers after.

Why is Chandigarh in the answers three times?

Chandigarh is a union territory of its own and the capital of both Punjab and Haryana. The map has one dot there, and the worksheet’s key gives it for Punjab, Haryana and Chandigarh (numbers 3, 4 and 5).

Is Port Blair on the map?

Under its new name: the capital of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands is written Sri Vijaya Puram, the name it was given in 2024.

Example

India’s 28 states and 8 UTs with capitals on A4, and the 36-line answer key

A Class 6 social science teacher in Pune prints the map on A4, upright: all 36 names and 34 capital dots — Chandigarh is one dot for Punjab, Haryana and itself — with New Delhi ringed. Where there is no room inside, a name goes outside on a thin line: 7 on A4 (Sikkim, Nagaland, Tripura, Goa…), 4 on A3.

On A4 two capitals also go on lines, Shillong and Aizawl; on A3 none does. Delhi is labelled with New Delhi under it, and Puducherry is one label beside its dot.
For the unit test, “Numbered, to write the names and capitals” numbers the 36 in reading order, from 1 Jammu and Kashmir to 36 Kerala, and page two is the key below.

No.	State/UT	Capital	No.	State/UT	Capital
1	Jammu and Kashmir	Srinagar	19	Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu	Daman
2	Ladakh	Leh	20	Madhya Pradesh	Bhopal
3	Punjab	Chandigarh	21	Chhattisgarh	Raipur
4	Haryana	Chandigarh	22	Odisha	Bhubaneswar
5	Chandigarh	Chandigarh	23	Jharkhand	Ranchi
6	Himachal Pradesh	Shimla	24	West Bengal	Kolkata
7	Uttarakhand	Dehradun	25	Tripura	Agartala
8	Rajasthan	Jaipur	26	Mizoram	Aizawl
9	Delhi	New Delhi	27	Maharashtra	Mumbai
10	Uttar Pradesh	Lucknow	28	Karnataka	Bengaluru
11	Bihar	Patna	29	Telangana	Hyderabad
12	Sikkim	Gangtok	30	Goa	Panaji
13	Meghalaya	Shillong	31	Tamil Nadu	Chennai
14	Assam	Dispur	32	Andhra Pradesh	Amaravati
15	Manipur	Imphal	33	Puducherry	Puducherry
16	Arunachal Pradesh	Itanagar	34	Andaman and Nicobar Islands	Sri Vijaya Puram
17	Nagaland	Kohima	35	Lakshadweep	Kavaratti
18	Gujarat	Gandhinagar	36	Kerala	Thiruvananthapuram

Slips the key catches: Amaravati for Andhra Pradesh (Hyderabad is Telangana’s), Dispur for Assam, Gandhinagar for Gujarat, Chandigarh for both Punjab and Haryana, and Sri Vijaya Puram — Port Blair’s new name — for the Andaman and Nicobar Islands.

How it works

The map names the states and union territories of India and marks each capital with a dot and its name.
Choose the paper — A3 leaves more room for the names — or the blank style for a quiz.
Press Make PDF and print; the lines are vector, so they stay sharp at any size.
