A Correct answer
Explanation

As of 2019, following the reorganization of Jammu and Kashmir into Union Territories, India has 28 states. This was reduced from 29 when J&K ceased to be a state. Before that, India had 29 states. The current structure includes 28 States and 8 Union Territories. The answer of 28 states is correct for the current administrative structure.

AI explanation

India currently has 28 states (plus 8 union territories). The count dropped from 29 to 28 in August 2019, when the state of Jammu & Kashmir was reorganized into two union territories (Jammu & Kashmir, and Ladakh). 27, 30, and 25 don't match any historical or current count of Indian states.
