Abstract	There were ten hill states in Union of India. They were Jammu & Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Sikkim, Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram, Meghalaya, and Tripura. The smaller administrative division enables the government to deliver better governance. Hill States as a Region recorded higher growth in formation of new districts during 1951-2021 than Non-Hill States as a Region and India. Among hill states, Jammu & Kashmir was the oldest state and the youngest was Uttarakhand. Across hill states, Jammu & Kashmir and Arunachal Pradesh recorded the highest growth in formation of new districts and the lowest in Uttarakhand.
