SSC GD Const 2025 (English) - 12 Feb 2025 - Shift 2 • General Awareness • Q33

Which of the following neighbouring countries of India has the lowest population density?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Bhutan.

Among India’s neighboring countries, Bhutan has the lowest population density. Located in the eastern Himalayas, Bhutan’s rugged terrain and mountainous landscape limit extensive urban and agricultural development, resulting in a smaller population spread over a relatively large area. In contrast, countries like Bangladesh, Nepal, and Pakistan have much higher population densities due to more arable land and larger populations. Bhutan’s low density contributes to its focus on environmental conservation, sustainable development, and preservation of natural resources.
