The correct answer is option 2: 7.

In India, Union Territories are regions that are directly administered by the central government rather than having their own state government. As of now, there are a total of 7 Union Territories in India. These Union Territories are:

1. Andaman and Nicobar Islands

2. Chandigarh

3. Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu

4. Lakshadweep

5. Delhi (National Capital Territory of Delhi)

6. Puducherry (Pondicherry)

7. Ladakh

These Union Territories have varying degrees of autonomy and are governed by administrators appointed by the President of India, who is the head of state. It is important to note that the number of Union Territories in India may change in the future as per government decisions.
