Can anyone explain office of whip is mentioned in any statue or established by convention. ?
Office of whip is mentioned neither in constitution, nor in rules of house, nor in parliamentary statute. It is based on the conventions of the parliamentary system of government.
recently some act has been which has given statutory status either to whip or some other post. Can't remember exactly. Do you remember something about it?
Yes. While there is no mention of office of whip in the Indian constitution, it has been given a statutory status by theLeaders and chief whips of recognised parties and groups in parliament (facilities) Act 1998. It is related to facilities to leaders and chief whips of recognised parties and groups in parliament.

Q.27) With reference to the revolutionary extremist V D Savarkar, consider the following statements:
1. In 1904 Savarkar organised the Abhinav Bharat on lines of Mazzini’s Young Italy.
2. Inspired by ‘India House’ of Shyamaji Verma, he organised the ‘Free Indian Society’ to organise students for a revolution.
3. In a famous pamphlet published in 1923, he first coined the term Hindutva.
4. He presided over a session of Hindu Mahasabha.
Which of the above statements is/are correct?
a) 1 and 2 only
b) 1, 2 and 3 only
c) 2, 3 and 4 only
d) 1, 2, 3 and 4
Ans) d Exp) All the statements are correct.
Doubt: Statement 3 must be wrong, as stated that term Hindutva coined by V D Savarkar, but it's mentioned in Quartz INDIA thatVinayak postulated that the essence of being a “Hindu”, defined by him as “Hindutva” or Hindu-ness, was completely different from the popular religious connotation of “Hinduism.” Incidentally,it is believed that Chandranath Basu first coined the term“Hindutva”—a neologism with Sanskrit etymology—in his 1892 Bengali work, Hindutva—Hindur Prakrita Itihas (Hindutva—An Authentic History). But it was undoubtedly Vinayak who popularised the term within a short span of time.

and "union" territories are essentially union's territories so dispute between union and union territories doesn't make much sense.
@Incognito I think not.As per article 131, the original jurisdiction of supreme court extends to-1)between the Government of India and one or more States; or2) between the Government of India and any State or States on one side and one or more other States on the other; or3) between two or more Statesand "union" territories are essentially union's territories so dispute between union and union territories doesn't make much sense.
UTs do not have their independent HCs. So any HC having original jurisdiction is unlikely
