Which of the following States recorded the lowest decadal growth rate of population, according to the 2011 census ?

  • A.Arunachal Pradesh
  • B.Nagaland
  • C.Madhya Pradesh
  • D.Punjab

Answer: B

The lowest decadal growth in the 2011 census was recorded by Nagaland.

Nagaland's population fell between 2001 and 2011, a decadal growth of about −0.6 percent, the only state with negative growth. Part of the explanation offered was over-counting in the 2001 census.

Arunachal Pradesh grew by about 26 percent, Madhya Pradesh by about 20 percent and Punjab by about 14 percent, all far higher.
