Correct answer
Explanation
Mizoram has the highest proportion of Christians in India at approximately 87% (2001 Census), due to widespread missionary activities since the 1890s. Nagaland also has a high Christian percentage but slightly lower than Mizoram. Kerala has significant Christian population but only around 19%. Goa's Christian population is around 26%, concentrated in coastal areas. Northeastern states, particularly Mizoram and Nagaland, dominate the top positions.
