Explanation
The Correct Answer is option 3 i.e. Goa .
According to the Census of India 2011, Goa had the highest percentage of urban population among Indian states, with 62.17% of its population living in urban areas. Though Union Territories like Delhi and Chandigarh had even higher urban percentages, among the states, Goa ranks first.
