The correct answer is C. Both 1 and 2.

Hamirpur has the highest road density in Himachal Pradesh, with 101.7 km of roads per 100 sq km of area. Lahaul and Spiti has the lowest road density in the state, with 10.6 km of roads per 100 sq km of area.

The road density is the number of kilometers of roads per 100 square kilometers of land area. It is a measure of the accessibility of a region by road. A high road density indicates that a region is well-connected by roads, while a low road density indicates that a region is less well-connected by roads.

The road density in Himachal Pradesh is 34.3 km of roads per 100 sq km of area. This is higher than the national average of 11.2 km of roads per 100 sq km of area. The high road density in Himachal Pradesh is due to the state’s mountainous terrain. The mountains make it difficult to build roads, but the state government has made a concerted effort to improve the road network in recent years.

The road density in Hamirpur district is 101.7 km of roads per 100 sq km of area. This is the highest road density in the state. The high road density in Hamirpur district is due to the district’s location in the central part of the state. The district is well-connected by roads to other parts of the state.

The road density in Lahaul and Spiti district is 10.6 km of roads per 100 sq km of area. This is the lowest road density in the state. The low road density in Lahaul and Spiti district is due to the district’s remote location in the north of the state. The district is difficult to access by road, and the road network in the district is not as well-developed as in other parts of the state.
