The correct answer is option-2: A Union of States. The Constitution of India describes India as a Union of States. This means that India is a nation made up of individual states that have their own governments and powers, but are united under a central government that represents and governs the entire country. This term emphasizes the unity and cooperation between the various states in India, while also acknowledging their individuality and autonomy. It is important to note that India is not described as a federation of states, as option-1 suggests. While India does have a federal structure, it is more accurate to describe it as a Union of States.
