Article 2 of the Indian Constitution states that the Parliament may, by law, admit into the Union of India or establish new states on such terms and conditions as it thinks fit.
The article grants the Parliament the power to redraw the boundaries of the existing states or create entirely new states in India. However, this power is not absolute and is subject to certain conditions and procedures.
Before admitting or establishing a new state, the President of India must consult with the concerned state legislature and obtain their views. Additionally, the state legislature concerned must pass a resolution expressing their willingness to be admitted or established as a new state.
If the admission or establishment of a new state involves the alteration of the boundaries of an existing state, the Parliament cannot do so without the consent of that state.
In summary, Article 2 of the Indian Constitution deals with the admission or establishment of new states in India and provides the Parliament with the necessary power to do so, subject to the conditions and procedures laid out in the article.
