A
Correct answer
Explanation
Uttar Pradesh is India's most populous state with over 200 million people (approximately 17% of India's population). Its population exceeds that of many countries and stems from high historical fertility rates, dense agrarian communities in the Gangetic plain, and large urban centers. While Bihar and West Bengal are also densely populated, UP's total population far exceeds them. Maharashtra ranks fourth. The demographic weight makes UP politically significant with 80 Lok Sabha seats.
