The Government of India (ISO: Bhārata Sarakāra; often abbreviated as GoI), also known as the Central Government or union government, is the national authority of the Republic of India, a federal democracy located in South Asia, consisting of 28 union states and eight union territories.

The government, seated in New Delhi, has three primary branches: the legislative, the executive and the judiciary, whose powers are vested in a bicameral Parliament, a prime minister, and the Supreme Court respectively, with a president as head of state. Through judicial evolution, the Parliament has lost its sovereignty as its amendments to the Constitution are subject to judicial intervention. Judicial appointments are made with negligible say from the executive or legislature.
