Geography

question_exam: 

NDA-I

stats: 

0,11,8,3,2,11,3

keywords: 

{'indian states': [5, 1, 5, 8], 'haryana': [2, 0, 3, 3], 'correct ascending order': [0, 0, 0, 4], 'above states': [0, 0, 1, 1], 'india': [8, 1, 7, 13], 'jammu': [4, 2, 0, 3], 'bihar': [1, 0, 2, 2], 'kashmir': [3, 1, 2, 2], 'total population': [1, 0, 0, 2], 'census': [2, 1, 1, 2], 'percentage': [1, 2, 2, 3]}

The correct answer is option 3 which states the ascending order as 3 - 4 - 2 - 1.

Let`s analyze each option to understand why the given answer is correct:

Option 1: 3 - 4 - 1 - 2

This option suggests that Jammu and Kashmir (option 3) has the lowest percentage of population to the total population of India, followed by Haryana (option 4), then Bihar (option 1), and finally Rajasthan (option 2). However, this order is not correct since Haryana has a higher percentage of population compared to Bihar.

Option 2: 4 - 2 - 1 - 3

This option suggests that Haryana (option 4) has the lowest percentage of population to the total population of India, followed by Rajasthan (option 2), then Bihar (option 1), and finally Jammu and Kashmir (option 3). Again, this order is incorrect as Bihar has a higher percentage of population compared to Rajasthan.

Option 3: 3 - 4 - 2 - 1

This is the correct option as it states that Jammu and Kashmir (option 3) has the lowest percentage of population to the total population of India,
