Among the following States, which has highest percentage decadal growth rate during the 2001 - 2011 ?
Answer: A
Arunachal Pradesh had the highest decadal growth rate of the four States in 2001-2011.
The 2011 Census gives Arunachal Pradesh a growth of about 25.9 per cent. Bihar follows with about 25.1 per cent, Rajasthan with about 21.4 per cent and Madhya Pradesh with about 20.3 per cent.
Bihar is the usual wrong guess, since it is the large State with the highest fertility, but its growth rate is a little below that of Arunachal Pradesh, whose growth is helped by migration into the State as well as by natural increase. Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh grew more slowly than both.
