C Correct answer
Explanation

India has 28 states as of 2024. The number has increased over time due to reorganization - it was 14 at independence, grew to 28 by 2000 (with Uttarakhand, Chhattisgarh, and Jharkhand formed in 2000, and Telangana added in 2014). The options show historically lower counts, but 28 is the current correct figure.
