Explanation

Jammu and Kashmir has the largest proportion of rural population among Indian states due to limited urbanization. Kerala has the highest female-to-male ratio (sex ratio) at over 1000 females per 1000 males. Maharashtra has a high proportion of urban population (42.4% in 2001). Uttar Pradesh had the highest rate of population growth in the 1991-2001 decade due to demographic momentum. This matches option C: A(5), B(3), C(4), D(2). The other combinations mix up these demographic facts incorrectly.
