Which one among the following statements about the States Reorganization Act is not correct?

The States Reorganisation Act, 1956, was a landmark legislation that redrew the boundaries of Indian states [3]. Passed in 1956, it implemented the recommendations of the Fazal Ali Commission, which had been tasked with reorganizing states primarily on a linguistic basis rather than for mere administrative convenience [2]. While the commission rejected the 'one language, one state' theory, it accepted linguistic homogeneity as a major factor for reorganization to preserve cultural unity and integrity [2]. The Act resulted in the creation of fourteen States and six Union Territories, effectively abolishing the previous four-fold classification (Part A, B, C, and D) of states [4]. Therefore, the statement that boundaries were drawn for administrative convenience is incorrect, as the primary driver was linguistic and cultural aspirations.
