Solution

The correct option is C Uttar Pradesh
The seats in Lok Sabha are allotted on the basis of the state’s population. This is why the most populous state, Uttar Pradesh, has the highest number of representatives in the 17th Lok Sabha. Meanwhile, a smaller state like Jharkhand has a share of 2.65%.
