Which of the following Indian States is broadly as large as the European nation Poland? |
A. | Bihar |
B. | Orissa |
C. | Maharashtra |
D. | Madhya Pradesh |
Answer» D. Madhya Pradesh | |
Explanation: The total area of Poland is 312,679 square kilometres, making it the 69th largest country in the world and the 9th largest in Europe. Maharashtra covers an area of 307,731 km2 or 9.84% of the total geographical area of India; while Madhya Pradesh covers 308,252 km2 of the nation and is the sixth largest state in India by population. Both Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra are comparable to the size of Oman and both have area less than that of Poland. But, since Madhya Pradesh is bigger than Maharashtra, it should be the correct answer. |
