D. Part X
💡 Solution & Explanation
Part VIII of the Indian Constitution, encompassing Articles 239 through 242, sets forth the administrative framework and governance mechanisms for Union Territories under the direct authority of the President. Unlike states with dedicated legislatures and cabinets, Union Territories are administered via appointed administrators or lieutenant governors. Other parts of the constitution pertain to distinct matters such as panchayats or scheduled tribal regions. Polity questions consistently examine federal structures and territorial administration.
