Marking the India worksheet: the 12 answers pupils most often get wrong

A Class 6 social science teacher prints the worksheet on A4: the map with 36 numbers, a dot for each capital, Name and Date lines and two columns headed “State/UT” and “Capital”; page 2, “Answers”, names every place and fills the list. These are the lines to check most carefully:

  1. The numbers run north to south in bands, west to east in each: 1 Jammu and Kashmir to 36 Kerala, with the islands at 34 and 35.
  2. On US Letter the numbering is the same as on A4, so one answer key marks both.
  3. There are 34 capital dots for 36 places: Punjab and Haryana both point to Chandigarh’s.
No. State/UT Capital on the key Watch for
1 Jammu and KashmirSrinagarJammu written instead
2 LadakhLeha union territory since 2019
3 PunjabChandigarhone city, three answers
4 HaryanaChandigarhone city, three answers
5 ChandigarhChandigarha union territory itself
9 DelhiNew Delhithe ringed national capital
14 AssamDispurGuwahati written instead
19 Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and DiuDamanone union territory since 2020
32 Andhra PradeshAmaravatiHyderabad is Telangana’s (29)
33 PuducherryPuducherrysame name
34 Andaman and Nicobar IslandsSri Vijaya PuramPort Blair until 2024
36 KeralaThiruvananthapuramspelling

india-capitals-worksheet.pdf, two pages: 36 lines for 28 states and 8 union territories, and the key. The line “International boundaries as shown by the Government of India.” is printed on both.

How it works

  1. The states and union territories are numbered on the map and each capital is a dot.
  2. Pupils write the name and the capital on the line with the same number.
  3. Press Make PDF: the worksheet comes first, the answer key after it.

Frequently asked questions

How are they numbered?
From north to south in bands, west to east within each, so the list is easy to follow.
Is the answer key included?
Yes: the map with every name and capital, and the list filled in.
Is there a version with the names printed?
Yes — the map with the capitals, on its own page, names every one.
Why are Punjab, Haryana and Chandigarh all answered “Chandigarh”?
Because the city of Chandigarh is a union territory of its own (number 5) and the capital of both Punjab (3) and Haryana (4). The map has one dot there, and the answer key writes Chandigarh on all three lines.
Are the numbers the same on A4 and US Letter?
Yes for India: 1 Jammu and Kashmir to 36 Kerala in the same order on both, so a key printed on one paper marks sheets printed on the other. Each PDF also carries its own answer page.
Is anything uploaded?
No. The PDF is made in your browser.
