{'child sex ratio': [3, 0, 0, 0], 'uttar pradesh': [5, 1, 0, 7], 'punjab': [2, 0, 1, 0], 'bihar': [1, 0, 2, 2], 'census': [2, 1, 1, 2], 'states': [1, 0, 0, 1], 'haiyana': [13, 0, 0, 0], 'provisional results': [1, 0, 0, 0]}

The question is asking about the state with the lowest Child Sex Ratio according to the provisional results of the 2011 Census. Child Sex Ratio is the number of girls per 1000 boys in the age group of 0-6 years. The correct answer is option 1, Haryana.

Now let`s understand why this option is correct. Haryana is a state in Northern India. The Child Sex Ratio in Haryana was found to be the lowest in the 2011 Census. This means that in Haryana, there were fewer girls per 1000 boys in the age group of 0-6 years compared to the other states listed. It indicates a preference for male children and may be indicative of a gender imbalance.

Overall, it is important to note that a low Child Sex Ratio is a concerning issue as it reflects gender discrimination and certain social and cultural practices.
