The correct answer is: A) Rural state.
Madhya Pradesh is a predominantly rural state with a population of 72.6 million people, of which 62.8% live in rural areas. The state has a low urbanization rate of 37.2%, which is below the national average of 38.5%. The main reason for the low urbanization rate in Madhya Pradesh is the state’s large agricultural sector, which employs a large proportion of the population. The state also has a number of small towns and villages, which are home to a significant number of people.
