Q1. In which districts of Rajasthan was population density found to be less than 100 persons per square kilometre according to the Census 2011?
A Jaisalmer, Barmer and Jodhpur
B Jaisalmer, Barmer and Bikaner Correct
C Jaisalmer, Pali and Barmer
D Jaisalmer, Pali and Jodhpur
Explanation
Census 2011 recorded very sparse settlement in Rajasthan's desert districts. Jaisalmer had the lowest density, while Barmer and Bikaner also remained below 100 persons per square kilometre because of arid terrain, scattered settlements and limited water availability. Jodhpur was more urbanised and crossed the 100 mark, so any group containing Jodhpur does not fit the condition. Pali also had a density above 100, so groups containing Pali are excluded. The only group in which all three districts satisfy the less-than-100 condition is Jaisalmer, Barmer and Bikaner.
