Pondicherry is union territory means comes direct under central govt control . before it was ruled by french .



A Union Territory is an administrative division of India, in the federal framework of governance. Unlike the states of India, which have their own elected governments, union territories are ruled directly by the federal government; the President of India appoints an Administrator or Lieutenant-Governor for each territory.



There are seven union territories. Delhi, the capital of India, is also a Union territory. Delhi and Pondicherry have been given partial statehood. Delhi is redefined as National Capital Territory. Delhi and Pondicherry have their own elected legislative assemblies and the executive councils of ministers, but their powers are limited; certain legislation must be reserved for the "consideration and assent" of the President of India. The following are the current Union Territories of India



Andaman and Nicobar Islands

Chandigarh

Dadra and Nagar Haveli

Daman and Diu

National Capital Territory of Delhi (NCT)

Lakshadweep

Pondicherry



Union Territories of India have special rights and status due to their constitutional formation and development. They may be given this constitutional status for reasons such as safeguarding the rights of indigenous cultures of that region, averting political turmoil related to matters of administration and so on.

In Sri Lanka and Kerala also, some people speak Tamil even they are not born Tamilian.



This is due to the separation of regions long before.



Pondicherry got its official ruling place as Chennai during British rule, and has an incredible influence of French culture there. Still French who settled in Pondicherry long back are there.



Also it is separated as an Union Territory so it is not into Tamilnadu even it was long long ago.

I am moving to Pondicherry by the end of this month. I am a Bengali and know Hindi quite well, other than English. The problem is my wife doesn't speak English. Can someone tell me where can I rent a room where the neighbours will be Hindi-speaking? Please answer asap because I have very few days in hand.
