[amp_mcq option1=”Goa” option2=”Kerala” option3=”Karnataka” option4=”Nagaland” correct=”option2″]<\/p>\n
The correct answer is (b), Kerala.<\/p>\n
Kerala is the only state in India that recorded a negative growth rate of population during 2001-2011. The state’s population growth rate declined from 1.4% in 2001 to 0.9% in 2011. This decline is attributed to a number of factors, including a decline in fertility rates, an increase in the number of women in the workforce, and an increase in the number of people moving out of the state.<\/p>\n
Goa, Karnataka, and Nagaland all recorded positive growth rates of population during 2001-2011. Goa’s population growth rate was 1.3%, Karnataka’s was 1.2%, and Nagaland’s was 2.0%.<\/p>\n
The decline in Kerala’s population growth rate is a positive development, as it indicates that the state is making progress in reducing poverty and improving the quality of life for its citizens. However, the state also faces a number of challenges, including an aging population and a shortage of skilled workers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
