Dear prof Pratihar, the meaning of State under Article 12 of the Constitution of India is inclusive Clause and takes in whtever has been expressly set out in Article 12, whereas the word State in other articles like Article 1, 152, 372 and 308 etc., of the Constitution is exclusive unlike Article 12 of the Constitution of India.
