{'populated state': [1, 0, 0, 1], 'goa': [1, 1, 1, 0], 'census': [2, 1, 1, 2], 'meghalaya': [22, 1, 17, 41], 'india': [8, 1, 7, 13], 'sikkim': [1, 0, 0, 4], 'mizoram': [6, 0, 7, 11]}

The correct answer is option 3, Meghalaya. According to the Census of India in 2011, Meghalaya is the most populated state in India.

Let`s dissect each option to understand why the correct answer is option 3 and not the others:

- Option 1: Goa. Goa is the smallest state in India with a relatively small population. It is not the most populated state.

- Option 2: Mizoram. Mizoram is a northeastern state of India with a population of approximately 1.1 million. While it is not heavily populated compared to other states, it is not the most populated state either.

- Option 3: Meghalaya. Meghalaya is a northeastern state of India with a population of approximately 3.2 million people. As per the Census of India in 2011, it is the most populated state among the given options.

- Option 4: Sikkim. Sikkim is a small state in the Himalayas with a relatively low population compared to other states in India. It is not the most populated state.

Therefore, based on the Census of India 2011 data, the correct answer is option 3, Meghalaya.
