What This Means
This paragraph covers the procedure for Central Government payments of loans and grants to Union Territory Governments that have their own legislatures (such as Delhi and Puducherry). These UTs with legislatures have their own budgets and accounting arrangements, so the procedure for transferring funds from the Centre to them follows a specific mechanism distinct from regular State Government transfers.
