According to the 2011 Census, Bihar had the highest population density at 1,106 persons per square kilometer.

This is the correct answer. In India, jute is mainly grown in West Bengal, Bihar and Assam.

This reflects structural challenges including low agricultural productivity, limited industrialization, and high population density. States like Punjab have much lower poverty rates due to agricultural prosperity.
