As per the 2001 Census of India the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes together constitute. What percentage to the total population of the country ?
Answer: A
The Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes together made up about 24 per cent of India's population in the 2001 Census.
The Scheduled Castes were about 16.2 per cent and the Scheduled Tribes about 8.2 per cent, which adds up to 24.4 per cent.
26, 28 and 30 per cent are all too high. The next census (2011) put the combined share at about 25 per cent, which is still below 26.
