B Correct answer
Explanation

West Bengal had the highest population density of 904 persons per square kilometer according to the 2001 Census. While Bihar was a close second at 881, West Bengal's smaller land area combined with high population made it the densest state. Uttar Pradesh, despite having the largest population, ranked lower in density due to its vast geographical area.
