Question

Which among the following is not true regarding how the population statistics help the Indian government?

• A. To plan expenditure
• B. To suppress innovations
• C. To allocate appropriate number of buses
• D. To decide on the number of hospitals

Answer 1

The correct option is B To suppress innovations

The population density can come in handy when the Union Government plans its expenditure. It makes a tremendous impact on certain decisions of the government as well. For example, when deciding whether a bigger hospital has to be built in an area based on the recent census data or the number of buses to ply on a certain route based on population statistics.
