\nThe correct answer is J.
\n<\/section>\n
\nWe need to compare the population densities of Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Meghalaya, and Nagaland as per Census 2011:
\n– Arunachal Pradesh: 17 persons per sq km (M)
\n– Assam: 398 persons per sq km (J)
\n– Meghalaya: 132 persons per sq km (N)
\n– Nagaland: 119 persons per sq km (S)
\nComparing the densities (17, 398, 132, 119), the maximum density among these four states is 398, which is the density of Assam. Therefore, the person from Assam (J) is making the correct claim.
\n<\/section>\n
\nArunachal Pradesh has the lowest population density among all states in India. Assam is one of the more densely populated states in the Northeast region, although its density is lower than the national average (382 in 2011).
