Question

Which is India’s biggest state by land area and its contribution to the total population of India?

• A. Karnataka, 7.8%
• B. Madhya Pradesh, 4.5%
• C. Uttar Pradesh, 15%
• D. Rajasthan, 5.5%

Answer 1

The correct option is D Rajasthan, 5.5%

India’s biggest state, Rajasthan, holds only 5.5 % of the total population. That is because a large percentage of the state is covered by the Thar Desert. The Thar Desert is not completely conducive for human settlements.
